Cool shots Tony.......not so sure you're quality comment is warranted....have you seen my shots!! Average camera and bad photographer (if can attach that label to myself).

Glad to hear you enjoyed the drive....detours and all!!!

[rellik666]

What detours????????

[Nil Time]

NO DETOURS - just pre planned, alternate ways of reaching our destination !

[gok4rt]

Tony,
I thought you were in logistics....with that answer it sounds more like politics!!!

Have a good one....

[Nil Time]

It must be my consulting experience..trying to keep all parties working and relating effectively,

Cheers,

[rellik666]

HA ha ha!...........I think it is you that is in Politics Craig..........with all those outlandish Turbo Claims............

As long as we all have a good time!

Hey Tony, you not coming onthe 20th....it'll be fun!

[Nil Time]

Hello Ruth - I am not sure of my schedule yet - I may be working away from home during that time.

I shall come if I can.

Cheers

Hey Ruth,
Nothing outlandish about any Turbo claims I have made, all 100% truth, honest!?!?!

Tony,
It'd be great to see you on the 20th if you can make it. This run was my first run with clubMINI....when I first saw that 10km winding road sign, well... Definite try to make this one, its an excellent drive.

I was wandering if some of you Vics can help me. What's the easiest way to get to Scoresby from the CBD and roughly how long would it take? Have to meet someone out there, and its rather important. Thanks...

Monash Freeway is good (get off Ferntree Gully Road) but not during busy peak hours, we don't call it the Monash Carpark for nothing.

Take Kings Way to Queens Road onto Dandenong Road (Princes Hwy) then left at Ferntree Gully Road through to Scoresby.

I live there and it takes anywhere between 35 minutes to 1 hour depending on time of day.

Early morning before peak = 35 mins
Morning peak = 45-50 mins
Late morning through to late afternoon = 35 mins
Evening Peak = 50-60 mins.

If you take the Monash Fwy from the city, you need to pay tolls and you never know how well it will travel. It only takes one accident to stuff the whole thing up!

It's never taken me any longer than an hour at the most using the route I suggest.

Hope this helps and your meeting goes well!

Cheers..... Geoff

thanks for the directions. looks like driving would be the best way to get there, where can I rent a MINI? Oh, and does anyone know of any short term apartments that are available?
