City Cruise - 26th Feb

[BenC]

OK I haven't had anyone contact me about this one yet. So who's interested in going?

Some possible spots to cruise around are Bondi Beach, Harry's, George Street, The Rocks. Open to any suggestions on the night depending on who goes and what's happening.

Any takers? We really need 5+ vehicles to make this fun :)

[Cpage66]

I'd be interested in doing a few laps around town... :twisted:

[billsta]

IM IN...
HAVE WE DECIDED WHERE WE DRIVING YET?

[chrispy]

IM IN...
HAVE WE DECIDED WHERE WE DRIVING YET?

What about getting Bob Carr to close down the Harbour Bridge, and we could all "race" across at 90kmh?

[BenC]

Nah haven't decided yet Bill. I'm open to any suggestions.

It should be the first opportunity for me to drive my Jeep on the road again!

[sir_camel]

I'm a possible starter

[TheBeast]

I,m in on this one 8)

[billsta]

have a mate that might come along in his aTJ..

maybe we shoudl park our jeeps on the bridge and wait till flabber gets there, we might get some TV coverage :mrgreen:

[GMAN]

i'm in for this one...
can we get some details like meeting time place etc :?:

[BenC]

Meeting time - 7:00pm
Meeting location - Parramatta Park would be a good one? Does anyone else have any suggestions? If not, Parramatta Park it is.

[TheBeast]

Sounds OK, dinner is at Harrys Cafe right :D

[GMAN]

yeah sounds good parramatta park just once you get in off Pitt St!

And yeah harrys hmmmm.... :lol:

[BenC]

Rightio.

Parramatta Park it is.. Meeting at 7.00pm for 7.20pm departure.
UHF Channel 15 will be the comms channel
Cruise in the city, probably hit Bondi Beach first, then come back and cruise around the city a bit, stop at Harry's for dinner, and wherever people want to go from there.

Sounds like there are at least 5 or 6 vehicles going, so should be fun.

[Hunter]

I will be in this one too :!: :P
So how many colors do we have now? Can we make a street rainbow somehow? :wink:

[BenC]

maddog (multi coloured ORI beast) (maybe)
Chris (Silver WJ)
Billsta (Maroon WJ)
Mark camel (Army TJ)

[BenC]

Ok I'm out of this. But you guys should still go. Who wants to nominate themself as the new trip leader?

The asshole who's had my new axles for the past 2 weeks called today and advised that he's FINALLY taken the axles out of the box (after assuring us that he'd started machining them at least 3 times) and realised they won't fit in his mil! So now I have to go pick them up on Monday and take them to another place to get it done. I've got a mind to break his kneecaps while I'm there.

[GMAN]

damn.... thats bad luck but i hate it when your paying someone to do a job for you and they take there sweet ass time as if they were doing you a f*ck*ng favour! anyhow my TJ is Navy Blue!

Well, thanks for a great night Guys & Girls, pitty about Harrys though :!:

Next time we'll do a day time run and hit Harrys for lunch, not so many POLICE around then 8)

Thank again.

[billsta]

ok..
day run to harrys for an late lunch/early dinner then to the drive-in?
maybe..
but what do i know...

[BenC]

How'd it go guys?

[sir_camel]

Was a great night.

After meeting everyone (6 Jeeps) at Parra Park we cruised down to Homebush to get some poser shots with the stadium. We got moved along by a security guard but he was a good bloke and was cool with it all. Then down Parramatta Rd to Norton St where our thunder was literally stolen by first a few harleys then by a Ferarri 550 Convertible. Then onto Star City and George St. The Rocks next and then to Mrs Macquaries Chair. Here we got a tip off from Bill's mate Steve that the cops were defecting people at Harry's at Woolloomoolloo. So then we went to Bondi for dinner. A great night had by all. Oh we finsihed off under Harbour Bridge at Milsons Point.

[billsta]

didnt realise we went to so much land marks,,,

[Cpage66]

Just got finished looking at the pics Pela took...Only good one was the one I took of the bridge at the end after I reset the camera up for night work. (Me earlier in the evening..."You sure you have the camera set up?" She "Yes" *rolls eyes at obviously stupid husband*) So the pics are all blurry and not too great.

[FeD]

How'd it go guys?

definately was a great night cruising......

we left Parra Park less one car that said would show , GMAN ... sorry if you did show , but we waited longer than we should have ... with Wiz standing at the gates waving at all the jeeps that drove past, even if they were not associated with the SJC cruise .... :roll: ... :lol:

i am disappointed in not having Harry's for dinner... but hey was happy to give up dinner at Harry's for any possible grief given by the cops at wooly-moo, but then again I probably would have preffered maybe the grief at Harry's than deal with the skanky crowd at Bondi.

we turned many heads and heard many comments....such as the car full of young girls next to us yelling ....."we want your car!"

Camel almost decapitated a pizza delivery guy on a scooter ..... Camel had a car of guys pull up next to him at the lights asking with excitement "is this a jeep cruise?" when the delivery guy decided to lane split as Camel stuck his head out of the window and nearly knocked his block off....

all the years we have ever been cruising into the city on a weekend night ... (RIP Alfa GTV) I have never seen the city from the North side at night and it was just an awesome view from Milson's Point 8O

Thanks to all that came and thanks Billy for being our trip tour guide :mrgreen:

I know 2 of you had cameras *cough* Chris & George :lol: there should be some awesome photos at olympic park and milsons point, so when your ready :wink:

thanks again and look forward to the afternoon cruise to Harry's ....
