At least, no one is going to blame me... I did put in new wiper blades though.. because of YOU.

Hah! my missus is in beechworth today with our white NA and just sent me a photo of all you guys parked up :mrgreen:

We did see a couple of ladies waving at our convoy as we passed by and pointing at a white NA. She was with other people under a veranda of a house near the Gaol. Was that her?

We just checked-in into our motel and waiting to go out for our dinner.

Thank goodness this motel provides free wi-fi.

hi guys, ive just gotten back in town after the usual South Sydney weekend traffic jam and I'm waiting for my car wash =)

I would like to say a big thank you to Mike for coordinating the whole event and to others who have helped organisise various events on the trip.

This trip has to be the best driving expedition that i've ever been part of and the company was fantastic! (note... whatever happens on the trip STAYS on the trip ;) )

can't wait for the photos and for our next weekend away!

the photo was taken in the swiss alps.?
A big thankyou to Michael , Barry , Rus and Victor for organising this fantastic road trip . Car trip meter shows 2490ks . Most of those ks will remain as one those great memories for me.

Great trip,
Great weather,
Great roads,
Great cars
and great company.

Thanks for an awesome experience.

Michael, maybe instead of using the distance to name these trips, we should use the year instead (ie. MX2012, MX2013 etc). Thank you for organising along with Russ and Vic.

Bring on Tasmania for MX2012 - hint for you John to start researching.

Danny's Lookout, Hothan Heights VIC

More photos to follow...

It's of a poster that was taken somewhere along the Great Alpine Road near Hotham Heights?? Perhaps at a tourist info centre... or maybe at Danny's Lookout

Nope!

Take another guess.

Hows this ??

Hammer · Postby **Hammer** » Sun May 01, 2011 9:27 pm

Very close Minx. Original photo at the correct orientation.

The black NC [I won't mention who] was on the wrong side of the road. Let's just say this person likes to use the entire road when they can clearly see whats ahead. :wink:

Or perhaps, it reminds him driving on the Austrian Alps by driving on the right side of the road. :mrgreen:

But I shoudn't be too smart-alec about it, as yours truly was also at the wrong side of the road when this photo was taken. Opps!
