Thanks Wayne, sounds like it'll be a cracker.
Anything else we should bring apart from the usual recovery/spares/water?

Hi Fellas.
I won't take any more cars, so this trip is now capped.
All on the previous list are in.
Non members of the Suzuki Club please bring $15 for 4wdVic insurance. ($15 for each non family member passenger as well)
Also bring your lunch. (no alcohol on our club trips). Morning tea and lunch stop will be in the bush...no facilities.
A compressor and pressure gauge are handy. But if not someone will lend you one.
We also like cars to have a fire extinguisher and a first aid kit.
If any financial members are interested, but not on the list, call me.
Regards. Wayne. 0419539264

So we are back to about 12 cars.

Hi all,
Just to prevent anyone making the same mistake that I almost did, when I put in "Lost Children of Daylesford Memorial Park" into my GPS ( on my Android Phone) , it tries to take me to the "Lost Childrens Memorial" on Wheeler's Hill Road, which looks to be about 6.5kms south east of the actual starting point (as the crow flies).
If I put in "Lost Children's Cairn Memorial Reserve" I get the starting point that matches Wayne's description as being just off of the A300 on the way out of Daylesford to Creswick. It is just off of Central Springs Road (off of the A300), not far from the Amazing Mill Markets.
Saved myself some fun in the morning, and maybe some others.....
Regards
Bruce

Howdy.
All ready to go tomorrow. Any rough idea of what time we might wind up, so I can let the family know?

Hi Fellas.
Thanks Bruce. We had some confusion about the location last year. Its in Daylesford, opposite the Mill Market.
Its hard to estimate finish time with a large group. But I will try to make it 4.00/4.30 .
See you all in Daylesford.

Big thanks to Wayne for organising and managing a fantastic trip.
I’ll definitely be back for another (as soon as I organise a 2 inch lift kit)
