You sure we're on the same book ?? Mine's a grown up's book with words in it.

minigolf · Oct 21st, 2005, 11:12 PM

Oh, then probably not. You should know that I can only understand pretty pikchas.

minigolf · Oct 21st, 2005, 11:21 PM

Well, just about to finish loading up the car, getting fuel etc, see y'all soon.

meinamini · Oct 22nd, 2005, 12:11 AM

That extra hour was very nice.. Had a coffee and some raisin toast waiting for the Canberra mob.... Oracle, Mrs and Mrs Minigolf, a sleepy Tiaan and Mike in a familiar looking EB MCS..

We had a great drive even though we had all five seasons the Goulburn District has to offer!

We met at Goulburn then headed off the back way to Marulan then through Bundanoon and off to Kangaroo Valley. It was raining as we headed down the hill and (probably fortunately) had a pace car..

It was then off to Berry via the back road which was sensational....read narrow, twisty, hilly, 'no lines or advisory signed' road.

Had lunch at Berry and paid premium price PLUS 15% SURCHARGE FOR WEEKENDS for our lunch..

We then headed off towards Kiama and then turned off to Jamberoo along a very nice twisty road then it was up Jamberoo Mountain Road which was another magic road with similarities to the Berry Road..

Twas there that we parted company with the Bathurst explorers and they headed off down the Macquarie Pass for another driving adventure..

A great day for sure...I'll post a few pictures of the usual and new suspects!!!

So for the tag team that is taking over from Sydney.... I hope you have as good a day as this one...

Yeah much better than today's offering.

aceman · Oct 23rd, 2005, 10:34 AM

Even thou we only joined the crew in Bathurst, we had an absolute ball.

Weather was awesome. Spirits were high. Track conditions were great, hehehe.

Great to meet Simon, Dave and Mike, and to catch up with everyone again.

We are so glad to be a part of Mini2.

Cheers,

Scott and Trish

MikeKom · Oct 23rd, 2005, 10:59 AM

This is Mike with the EB MCS

Had it for just over 3 months now and this was my first real drive.

I had a ball on the weekend and scared myself a few times.

I'm still geting the hang of driving the little bullet.

I'd like to thank the guys for taking me along and meeting fellow mini lovers, and hope to do some more great driving.
