Somerset Dam Cruise Saturday 25th of July 2009


After a few days of planning a Cruise, we have finally come up with an idea for a Saturday Day Cruise that will finish up at Somerset Dam, quite a nice location next to the water.


We will meet at Wow Sight & Sound Underwood at 8:00AM and we will depart at 8:30AM sharp, we need to leave by this time to ensure we arrive at Somerset Dam on time to allow enough car parks for all the cars that will be attending, and also please ensure you have money for the toll roads also!


I will be driving a midnight purple R33 Skyline with the plates MRR33 so if anyone wants to come up that have a question or just to say hi feel free to as i don't bite ...much smile.gif


I ask everyone to please behave on this cruise, and remember that this is not a race to who gets there first, it is a nice two hour drive which will encounter a great finish point at the end of the drive.


Please ensure you arrive at the first location with a full tank of fuel and make sure you all check your oil, water, tyre pressure etc the day before the cruise ..oh and make sure you wash it too smile.gif


There are BBQ's at Somerset Dam on site, but we encourage one or two people to bring a portable BBQ they are happy to share amoug us all just incase they are all being used or are not working or bring your own food for lunch.


It's not as early as the last Somerset Dam Cruise, so I hope to see a few more people out but we're leaving at a decent time in the morning so we can get there at a decent time of the morning as it will be roughly a two hour drive and ensure we get enough car parks as we're expecting a decent turnout again, as we had on the First Somerset Dam Cruise.


Click here to see the GoogleMap.


There will be a Fuel Stop, but only for those who need fuel because there will be not enough space for all the cars to park there however others will continue along and we will all re-group at Fernvale Township for a quick bite to eat and to stretch your legs before our final push to Somerset Dam.


Now, here's all the information you will need in regards to starting points, catch-up points times etc.


Meeting Spot One:
Wow Sight & Sound Underwood
Cnr of Kingston & Compton Road
Zone Center

Arrive: 8:00AM
Depart: 8:30AM Sharp!


Catch Up Point:
Fernvale Township
We will allow 20mins for people to catch up, and if you like you can grab a quick bite to eat here and strech your legs too smile.gif
Arrive: 9:30AM
Depart: 9:50AM Sharp!


Final Destination
Somerset Dam
Arrive: 11:00AM
Depart: When you like, though stay around have some lunch and check out the cars - and meet a few new people smile.gif


Helpers

StreetFame33 - Leading Cruise
GEE74 - Bring The Famous Kit-Kat Krew mamoru.gif
McGnarly - Leading The Northsiders to the first meet
Couger899 - Bringing the Big Blue Esky along with some drinks ($1 Per Can)
AE80ROLLAGUY - Cruising Back Of The Pack (Ensures Everyone Arrives)


We will also be on UHF Channel 1 for the day as well for those who have UHF's.


If anyone wants to help out with anything, (drinks, bbq's etc) just shoot me a PM - it should be a good day so hope to see a few of you guys out, you're more then welcome to post this on other Forums to help spread the word. I will update this post as needed, so keep tab on this thread if you're keen.


Just got rid of the 'People Keen' list it was getting too big and had to update it all the time, lolz ..but we're looking at about 60 people who are keen for the cruise so expect around 40-50 cars at the first meet.

Either the Fernvale stop so you can still have a cruise with us, or meet us at Somerset Dam - whatever is best for you champ smile.gif


There's a few people who are keen already for this cruise so there should be decent numbers, a few people from the first cruise will be coming along to this cruise also.

Yeah, I thought I'd make it a tad later for the departing time - few people were slightly late and what not so hopefully the later start will ensure more cars, even though there was a decent turnout for the first Somerset Dam cruise.

That'd be great if you could do that, would be good to make sure every car gets there, we'll have UHF's as well on the day so make sure everyone brings them!
