Last Friday of the Month Mt Nebo/Mt Glorious Night Run

[MattR]

I should be able to make the next one, thoughthe car will be battlescarred still

Possible route change

Hey guys, how about we change the route a little bit this time?
Instead of starting at Waterworks and bottom of Mt Nebo, why dont we start off at Samford Rd heading up the really nice twisty bits on Mt Glorious Rd, and turn left at the junction and stop at Jollys?

Meetiing point at the BP on the Roundabout on corner of Samford, Mt Samson, & Mt Glorious rd?

I just thought this might be more "flowing" as we are not double-backing on the way to coffee at Mt Cootha or Milton.

Yay? Nay?

Personally, I hate the section of road between Samford and Mt Glorious - rough, off camber, and generally not a very nice place to be. If we were to extend, or use a slightly different route, my vote would be from Cootha to down the other side of Mt Glorious towards Somerset dam... But that's just me

[Smithy]

so any confirmed changes... meeting place the same as noted above?

[Steampunk]

Good question Smithy .....

[Steampunk]

Is anyone coming?
Regardless of the route, we shall meet at the normal time and place.

[NZMiata]

I'll be there. Looking forward to meeting you Smithy and checking out your new car.

[Smithy]

My leave is approved with my wife and son I'll certainly be there... as long hopefully on time

[MattR]

I'll be there, though still battle scarred from Lakeside.

I will try to make it, but no promises, so don't wait for me

Where and when is coffee likely to be? - I could use some time out, but coming from the far southside for a run makes for more fuel in the car than the budget allows.

Gerard - nice sig quote - gotta respect Lance - you still cycling???

we'll leave a wee bit later. TXT me if you need us to wait there or at the bottom of the mountain or wherever.

Mt Cootha Mr Mike.
As to when.... hmmm....if we leave at 8pm, go straight to the mountains and we go down and up Samford way, I'd say just before 10pm.
That's if we don't gas-bag too much at Jolly's

[Steampunk]

I need someone to be at the pointy end, as I dont really know the best way to get from Cootha to Nebo.
MattR, you happy to go front-man?

[Smithy]

Meet at the bottom of Mt Cootha, opposite Botanic Gardens by 8:00pm right ?

honk if you see me on the way or there!

No worries, and I'll hand over to someone quicker once we get past Settlement Rd ,so I don't hold anyone up once we hit the real road, and drop back to tail end charlie.

Depending on who turns up we may just go a little quicker way from Cootha to Waterworks road, there's a couple of speed humps to go over though lower cars shouldn't have too much trouble, but will see who turns up.
