Ok here are a few places that I got from the visit Victoria website, have a bit of a look and let me know, I'll call them once we have some kind of concensus on a venue.
http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...DDBD1F1D3E508/ http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...42D7B8BD35783/ http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...1A5052C0C8808/ http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...3314F5DCC65FC/ http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...2BAFB23B0FA70/ http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...C35658E29A226/ http://www.visitvictoria.com/display...514177D0D8119/ Although, I was thinking the berry farms we could do after lunch as a bit of a dessert treat LOL, up to you all and I guess depending on time, but if we head back the Hume all the way back we'd have the time. Time to think now folks, if I don't get much response before Tuesday I'll just make a decision :

Ok have had some people worried about the length of time in the cars, so I've come up with an alternative, how about we take most of the same route, excluding Mansfield and head out to the Ned Kelly museum in Glenrowan. This takes about an hour and a bit off the drive time, wooses : , but as some are bringing kids from what I've been told might be worthwhile, and we might just learn something as well LOL.
Anyway, let me know what you all think, I'm not getting much feedback in the forum so I can only go off what concerns are raised to me personally by members. Also Phillip Island was mentioned again, I'm thinking in about a months time and we can try to work it around a race event at the track so we can enjoy some racing, watching that is. Here's a revised map to Glenrowan: http://www.whereis.com/?id=334250010FDC77

Not sure if the roads might be a bit twisty for the kids but there are two really nice roads we are missing out on. Either we could go from Mansfield to Whitfield or Mansfield to Tatong...I love these two stretches of tarmac!
It would add about 50 mins to the trip if we did one stretch on the way up and then the above suggested route on the way back. Again might not gel with this cruise cause of the added level of drive involvement but worth a thought.

I dont mind the twisty roads n stuff, but not sure if the drivers are bringing their family/kids etc. As long as its not too much of a long drive, im fine with it... Thats why I suggested maybe if we should just go to phillip island instead...

So what are peoples thoughts on this next one??? I asked the boys (who I know close) they suggested maybe we should just hit phillip island also. Not sure what other peoples thoughts are as it might be a long trip if we were to drive a long long way out than back...
I also had another thought, but not sure if everyone would have been up for it thats why I didnt mention it. It was to hit queenscliff thru geelong, than put all the cars on the boat and cross over to rye. This way we can talk on the boat and when we get across have lunch there and head back to melbourne??? Not sure what the cost is exactly but from memory its about $40-60 for putting the car on it plus 1 person. But we may need to call up and organise this... What are your thoughts on these guys???

Mate it's a bit late to go changing destinations a few days out from the event, some might have planned their days to suit it, the only thing you can do is pose the question on the morning and see what everyone wants.
That's why I always ask for suggestions early on so that everyone gets a chance to raise any concerns they may have about an even.I know some of these guys aren't regular members but it might pay for them to have a look when something is on and bring up any issues then. I'm not saying no at this point but I am saying it would only be fair to let those that have planned their days for it to be able to make the final decision.

Ok... So we all gathered at Epping and left just after 9:30am towards st.kilda. Did a quick stop over for drinks, fuel up, etc (was also waiting on another friend to join us). From there we set off to portsea pub going thru beach rd. I believe it was about 12:30 by than and after we all parked the cars, had lunch at the pub there ( too bad we couldn't get any seats outside, but it was all good).
Soon after, we all decided to head upto Arthurs seat lookout, had ice-creams, bit of chit chat, took some photos, enjoying the scenery. soon after we all set back towards home and cruised it all the way. In total there was 9 cars, which was still a good turn out considering so many ppl/members backed out STEF. So yeh, overall a very nice day and everyone was driving rather sensibly and easy. Again, was nice to meet the new and familiar faces, hope to see you all on the next cruise, which I think ill be organising this time STEF. Adrian also did very well with taking the lead in this cruise for most of the time, so would like to thank him once again for it... Here are some photos which were posted up on the other forums, so thanks to Sunny and Adrian for these, I will let him post up the rest of the photos...

Spoke to Frank about this the other day, and after having received my card the other day in the mail, he is more than happy to make one of these cards for each F6 owner. Its free of charge and the benefits of this card is to get very good dicount prices on products that you purchase only thru repco. Best part about it is, it looks good & free
Will let Frank write up about it and take it from there...

Was a good day with a nice cruise down the beach. We pulled a few looks along the way which was deserved cause all the cars looked great!
Was also good to meet you all (good bunch of people from the 9 cars that rolled up) and I will be on the next F6 cruise for sure. We also had a few good ideas thrown around between us all at the stops so OZ will know whats up when he organises the next one. Cheers Paul

yeh good stuff Pauly, best part about it was that everyone was easy going and although this whole cruise with where we were going wasn't exactly planned accordingly, it all went well with everyone suggesting something and everyone was cool about, so it really worked out...

Well it's good to see I was missed Oz : glad it all went well.
I finally got back today but i'm off again tomorrow, while taking time off my drivers done his back LOL so a few mores days for me in the hot seat. Well it only means more money to throw at my lil baby, I rekn some BBS wheels are lookin good hmmmmm. Anyway, I'm more than happy to hand over the events/cruises co-ordinator/organizer reigns to yourself Oz, I'd certinly at the very least like more input from members on what we do and where we go. I hope to see you guys at AFD Geelong in a couple of weeks, those that won't be in with any other clubs can possibly get in with the AFF guys, the site sounds like it's pretty big so there may be room for a few more cars. I know I forgot to pre admit my car/s, but I'll head over and should find some room, I'm hoping to have the Capri rego'd for the event so could have both the F6 and the Capri, the F6 should have a bit of a surprise too. This could be a good first show event, I'll look into getting some banners done up so that we can get some more interest from the general show going public that might not yet know about the club. Also good to see no one had any trouble wid da lorrrrrr ..........Oz LOL p.s. Oz, with regard to the cards it's F6 Owners Club
