No, brisbanites can make thier own arrangments togther if they want to travel as groups. I have not set any times yet as a few of us are doing a "dry" run to test times so I can make it fair on everyone. We have heaps of time, don't worry, the week before the run I should have
1. Depart times
2. Speed camera locations( fixed in NSW)
3. detailed maps of the towns, and picnic area
4. full road directions. I have these now but will hand them out on the day instead. they are EXTREMELY detailed telling you every turn off and distances between.

Thanks everyone for your support I hope to make this great for everyone.

So I says to the cops, I says, "nah mate, that wasn't my tyres screeching, that was my passengers"

sounds like a plan, maybe you'll want to meet at the Maccas we met at the other time ( the one the turn off two back form motorline) so people can grab a bite if they want? just an idea as I won't be schedualing many other stops.

SERIOUS STEVE -"UMAH, Basil jasemini said CRAP!"

Jasemini - "Crap isn't a swear word"

SERIOUS STEVE - "is to you said CRAP you're in trouble"

Jasemini - "well if CRAP is a swearword then you just said it too, so I'm dobbing on you!"

childish banter finished oh and by the way CRAP!

Well what a great run we had with the Mini Owner's Club of Queensland today. Four of us new MINI owners headed down to the Gold Coast Hinterland for a wine and BBQ run.

Everyone treated us well and I think many showed just as much interest in our MINIs as we did theirs.

I was lucky enough to be taken for a lap in a classic Cooper S while I let some of the classic drivers take my Cooper out for a spin.

I'd also really like to thank John Hasselwood (spelling?) for welcoming us along. MOC club members also said they were keen to have us back in joint runs with whatever shape of new club takes.

I can't wait to go on the next joint classic/new MINI run now.

See below some piccies Cjay took.
