LOL!!! All I saw was tail lights, no attempts for U turns. You were out of there before I could finish saying "haha Yagz is gunna get done"... then I got pulled over instead lol.

I got to the end, saw the lights. Stopped, turned around, and decided to run like hell outta there!

But he was already coming after me by this stage.

Good cruise, i would have loved to take the EA out, but as was evident at the cruise the attention from cops is just way to much for my liking. The cops all seemed ok tho as they could see we weren't there to cause trouble.

as far as i see it where ever we go well get trouble, and dont say we dont ethir, its the right place at the right time for them

west side cruises are being planned, east side cruises will continue to be planned, city based cruise (depdning on how far in city based cruises you mean) wont be happening until we test them out with mini meets, photo shoots etc cause id rather risk a small group of us instead of a huge amount of us getting attention from the police

day cruises are an option but thats to mscrackers planning his own day cruises (and which it seems like hes doin a good job) you can almost garrentee that its alot more safer in the light

its not easy sometimes choosing meet points, this cruise was hard, i had one planned out already and after the stupit stuffing around from noble park it really had to think of something new fast, this cruise was the best i could come up with, as well taking into mind new places, places weve alrdy been too, police stations, roads, enterances, exiting, cameras and traffic.

honestly i think the places could of been better, espesally moorabbin but non the less as long as i see feedback from people saying "they had fun", then im happy

Thanks for your feedback Nick.

In fairness to Joe and myself, we did have to make some last minute changes to the route and meetpoint due to events in the last couple of weeks which affect us all as enthusiasts.

With the current climate, we have to expect to get some attention, no matter what area we are in, obviously S/E is more likely, but this cruise was pre-planned for some time and we did what we could to alter the route and meetpoints as best as we could.

Meet points your always going to get attention wherever you are but the routes on the way to the points were awesome they all kind of went around the current melbourne hot spots which is great credit to joe and adz for the hard work!

About the meet points:
I don't see ANY issues with the meet points that were chosen.
we had Police precence at all the meet points, Vermont, Pinewood, brighton (briefly), chelsea and DFO.

ALL the police at these places were a pleasure to deal with, if there was any problems they asked us to leave or got details.
NO ONE was done at meet points.

those who WERE done on the cruise, were done on their way to the cruise, or on the way between meet points for breaking the law.
had those people driven as per the road laws, they would have not been targeted.
Unfortunately people were done, and that sucks, but i hope it opens peoples eyes that cops can be anywhere, and they're simply doing their job.
drive right and you'll most likely be fine.

Wow that's a S$%t load of sedans, wagons on cruises would be nice too...

Looks like fun, looks like mostly young people though going on these cruises, 18, 20 year olds mostly, sigh.

Unfortunately it's this heat that inconsiderate drivers bring onto the rest of the group. This then wrecks it for all.
If you feel you need to break the law, you have plenty of time to do it prior to a meet. Just don't do it with E-series signage.
