Never too late

unless of course we've left already, then technically I guess you would be too late...

Glad to have you along

...Wrap up...

Well, another great cruise. Thanks to all those who turned up. One day we'll break into double figures...

Hope the route was ok for everyone, I did warn you there would be some twisty roads

My arms hurt a little lol

Travis - PMSL watching you fly up behind the porsche on the expressway... and sorry for changing lanes infront of your high speed run. There was a slow car infront of me, and by the time i saw how fast you were going, I was already committed

Stew - Light goes on, light goes off...

Anyway, Great to see you all. Will post info on the Working Bee soon.

Pics will be up once I've had a chance to go thru them. Its a long drive to the North from Victor lol, Think I'll have a snooze...

OK, Here are a few of the many pics we took. Came out quite well. Yes there are a few of the Bright Yellow Bumble Bee... It was just so photogenic...

The staging area...

This was a shot lee took, that seemed quite random, but on closer inspection, she got one of us in the shot. I didnt realise we got so far ahead of the last car... lol

Another shot through the winding roads.

Coming into Hahndorf

After Lunch. (Pity Ben had to go, so there are ONLY 8 cars in these shots)

I quite like how this shot turned out...

And of course Sunset...

Thought this was a really good group shot... (See, its not ALL about the cars)

And a Nice scenery shot on the way home to finish up.

I had a really good day today as well. Will definately be a long for the next one. Absolutely loved that first section

I think I might owe Travis an apology as well for getting in the way of one of his speed runs. Somewhere around Willunga Hill

I had some spare time tonight and photoshopped some of the photos, just to make us stand out more than we already do

Oh awesome! That's great-now I have more photos of my babi to show to people (as if I don't enough already, lol)!
Thanks for taking photos of the car, the bath I gave her was obviously worth it

Unfortunately, that speed craving has definitely only been fueled now. Doing xxx k's down that stretch of road back catching up to the two in front was awesome, loved it!
Definitely be on the next cruise so count me in

That looks good, but the only problem is that the whole b/w background thing doesnt really work the best when only 2 out of 8 cars arent grey or white lol. Really, only Danny's and Travis' car stand out...

AWESOME day again

Great photos guys, will be in on the next cruise to.

Another great cruise. 9 cars again. I love it.

Naps? You guys suck...
I had to go to work after I got home

97GPX and Steve- Your apologies are no good here, we're out there to have some fun and that's all that matters.

I did however get some great video again. There's some of Steve and Sunset Angel winding through the twisty stuff, a few backward shots through the sunroof, and the vids going past and being passed by everyone came out well. I'll post it once it's been edited a bit.

That was a Porsche Carrera that went past us so I thought I'd stir him up a little, see if he'd put his foot down. I guess from the fact he didn't he's probly used to that by now

OK, couple of Photo's too...

I'll have to crop and photochop the sign out of this one, but otherwise looks good...

And here's the one I got from the roof of the building. Gave me just the right angle to get all the cars and the island...

To all who came, thanx for making it a great day.

Looking forward to seeing you all and getting our hands dirty on the working bee

Catchas soon.

Hey Travis, hows that cruise vid coming along ? I'm aching to see the footage

glamorous · Post by **glamorous** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 6:52 pm

i dont think he has the internet at the moment thats why he might be taking a while. but yeah we too are eager to see this video.

TCGPX · Post by **TCGPX** » Thu Jun 07, 2007 8:57 pm

Hey guys. I'm still alive, I'll see some of you on Sunday for the working bee. Looking forward to it.

In the mean time, the video is done:

http://www.vidiLife.com/index.cfm?f=med ... A42-B134-F

Again, shocking quality and the upload was small, but you get the idea.

The full size version looks great, I'll bring a copy on Sunday, just wish I got more video of everyone, there are some people I didn't get much of

Catcha
