Default Peninsula Cruise Feedback 11/2

Been home for a bit now, thought I'd start the feedback thread.
Was a great cruise, got a little bit lost, people sort of making there own way to the meet points.
Many didnt turn up as usual, but we had a pretty decent turnout
Im in the process of uploading pics atm, will post asap.

Dont understand all that you just said, but i did get the bit " yeah definately a great cruise"
In regards to that, you cant be serious... That was the worst cruise in the history of eseries...The views were the only thing this cruise had goin for it.

I, along with HERFTR were the only ones that went along the Esplanade into Dromana, everyone else went straight down Nepean Hwy.
I thought it was great, maybe needed more explaination of where exactly we were stopping, but was a great drive
I know my carload had a ball!

the map didnt make sence at most parts but we made our own route to there, i wont point fingers it just needs more time. im more then happy to offer assistance with orginising the maps, like i said i a few pms ago mrcrackers

but it wasnt all bad, some very nice cars attended this cruise, not the numbers we were all hoping for on the list but still a decent amount of cars, got plenty of nice photos ill post later, if anyone thought i was abit rude for not talkin to them, i wasnt really feeling 100% myself, had a headace by the end and from this morning it was just creeping up to this point

As much we all somehow manage to make our way toward the meet point, i still give credit to fairlane ghia for having a go, consider mrcracker werent able to attend and all, so Thank fairlane ghia for the cruise and effort you try to put into it

That said, I think it was pretty shocking myself... Initially this cruise was to be organised by Mrcrackers, but he wasn't able to go through with it, and asked me to sort something out. With less than a week to prepare something, in an area I've never been to... its obvious why it wasn't as well organised as I would have liked.

It wouldn't have been so confusing if people had of followed me instead of overtaking me and choosing their own routes... By the time I got to arthurs seat, everyone had parked in the wrong carpark. Not to mention everyone left in the wrong direction too... missing all the twisty roads around Cape Shnack.

What happened to Mark TD?? As I also had a fight with a falling tree... my car looks like its been keyed down the passenger side... :(

He was in the LTD :(

He was cruising behind me for quite a while on the way home, then he passed me when we got onto springvale RD... I stayed on springvale RD for ages, but I didn't see him...

I did see a NC that got crushed by a falling tree on St Kilda RD....

it should have been orginised weeks before the cruise, not in the closing days to the cruise, but that you decided to pick up where he left off was done well by you, maps were ok, id only be repeating myself if i said anything about the maps.

im well aware of that, i know one person who comes to mind that being said, as well a few people at the meet points mentioning his name, hopefully he knows who he/they are cause its a regular thing when they turn up to these types of events

you have to be joking cause that was a massive tree, we went by there and it was bloking a lane, lucky no one was hurt cause that could of caused some serious injurys had it hit them at high speeds.

only thing bad about the cruise for me was that, the winds and the debris and **** flying in my eyes and in my interior with windows down and i got sunburt, i found it easy to get everywhere except the place that u guys went to after safeway in rye... which i think was the wrong safeway anyway

Yer was very average.

Got sick of it after arthur's seat and headed bk to Dromana with sunny for some pics by the beach. For some resson everyone follwed us up and down the main strip every where.:P

I guess Mrcrackers bit off more then he could chew.
