After the exhibition event a few of us got together and it looks like we are all driving up now.
The Melbourne and Philip Island contingent in Daniels Van with trailer and us from Geelong in whatever I can get running when the time comes.

I'm good to go, do we know any timings for Friday at this stage?
I was thinking of late afternoon if that works for those who are coming in the 7 seater.
We will also have a cage trailer (6 x 4 ft)

I've got all day Friday off, so anytime is suitable for me. I'll sort out with Neweyn and Matt if it is better to pick up from my place or Neweyn's.
I'll also be needing a place to crash on Saturday night

Andrew W How's parking out the front of your place? Could could always park your car in my street but I seam to remember your street being a bit busy?
SO who's In the 7 seater at this stage?
Danny
& your friend from tafe? (sorry forgotten his name)
Neweyn
Mat
Andrew W
George
Is that everyone? I guess with 6 people no one doesn't have a window to sleep against.

I'm good to go for a morning departure on Friday.
Could I get a confirmation from those on the list.
I'll reserve the seats for builders first, then if there are any left I'll bring a mate or two. _________________ Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.

Hey does anyone have a sydney street directory?
I only ask as I was in sydney a few years ago and got so lost because I didn't have one.
I'm prepared to grab one off ebay if no one has one.

With the introduction of the M7 it should actually be quite easy now. Basically just stay on the freeway and go up the M7. Then get off the exit and your there! Though i suggest you print off a few pages of whereis just in case. But trust me with the M7 its made your trip about 5x easier
