Count me in for the 9th anyway, especially if everyone else is leaning toward it, I just didnt want to get frustrated with traffic during our drive.

Liub · 10-03-2010, 08:16 PM

Let's just make it 9th and early!

'fatboy' · 10-03-2010, 10:53 PM

Liub / Cozza - name the time and meeting place and we'll be there!

If traffic is going to be an issue then the earlier the better.

Liub · 10-04-2010, 12:17 AM

Ok how does this sound:

Route for the day - http://is.gd/fJtUX

9.00am
Meet at Belgrave Manor Earthly Pleasures Cafe (http://is.gd/fJvXl). I have never been there but it looks alright for a morning coffee, plus there is a carpark right behind it according to Google Maps?

9:30am
Departure!

~12pm
Lunch at Igloo, Buxton http://is.gd/fJudj

~1pm
Head towards Healesville/home!

Not familiar with the area, so if someone can volunteer to lead the troops it'll be great

cozza · 10-04-2010, 01:23 AM

9am meeting in Belgrave is quite early, especially considering it's almost an hour from the CBD. I'd be happy to meet at 10 and head off at 10:30. Otherwise, looks like a good route....

Tis, but wanted a bit earlier to avoid traffic! How about 9:30, 10am departure? :P

Much of a muchness once you're out of the city and especially up the Reefton. Saturday's probably better coming back along the Black Spur (not so many weekenders returning).
10 a.m on Saturdee seems to suit a number of us.

Cheers

AussieAlf · 10-04-2010, 05:15 AM

Don't mind leading if you can stand being behind granddad in a diesel. I know the way, but happy to follow anyone else too.

Cheers,
Alf

Liub · 10-04-2010, 05:29 AM

Ok well 10am it is, for a 10:30 departure?

I presume people will be driving at different paces anyway so as long as we all have the route, it should be fine

.

~sarah~ · 10-04-2010, 08:20 AM

9am is way to early for me. But 10:00 i should be able to do.

Timbo · 10-04-2010, 03:41 PM

10 for 10:30 departure works for me... I wont be able to leave the city until around 9-9:30 but route looks good.

Liub · 10-04-2010, 06:07 PM
