Some really great backroads including the Bellthorpe range, and the perennial Glasshouse favourites. Apart from the official regroup points between each section, there are picturesque interim regroup points within sections, which means the coffee flask will be useful.
Format:
A summer run, which means: to avoid getting fried, an early start and a reasonable mid-morning finish. Running format is “regroup pointsâ€, so drivers may proceed at their own pace. However it is an MX5 Club of Qld event*, so appropriate conduct on public roads is required.
Navigation is by Tulip Diagrams. Contact by radio and mobile phones.
With the “regroup point†system it is especially important to advise the run leader if you are not planning on completing any section, otherwise the entire group will wait for you.
There will be a sub-group on each section running to traditional convoy format, or like minded drivers may like to form smaller convoys.
Meet for Section 1 at 5:30 a.m. on Gympie Road on the Bald Hills Flats, Northbound. UBD map 109 C3.
Regroup point and start of Section 2: BP Wamuran, D’Aguilar Highway. Start 6:30 a.m.
Regroup point, breakfast stop and start of Section 3: Moby Vic’s, Bruce Highway. Brekky 7:30 a.m. Start 8:45 a.m.
Regroup point and start of Section 4: BP Wamuran, D’Aguilar Highway. Start 9:45 a.m.
Ends Strathpine, 10:45 a.m.
Sunshine Coast Chapter members may wish to meet for breakfast and do Sections 3 and 4, then go home via sections 1 and 2 afterwards, finishing around 12:30
* Guests welcome but will be required to pay current Insurance fee (+/- $4.00)
