March Cruise- we're going for Broke! UPDATE!	Fri, 21 February 2003 13:21

When: Saturday, 29th March, 9:00 AM Where: Hills Alliance Church Hall 524 Windsor Rd, Baulkham Hills THE SAME PLACE WE HAVE OUR MONTHLY MEETINGS! Destination: Up Puttey rd, BBQ lunch at Broke. THIS IS GONNA BE A BIG (BUT REALLY GOOD!) ONE, AROUND 300KMS. GOOD PRACTICE FOR TOYOTA NATIONALS. Now I'm really keen for this, I did a practice run of the route on friday, & had a fantastic day! There's some really nice roads along the way, mostly 100km/h speed limits, & some great scenery. I've updated the plans, we're no longer stopping at Howes Crk for lunch, we're going for Broke!Yes well, I figured it would be a bit more appropriate too. The revised plan: 9:00AM. Meet at the Hills Alliance Church, same place we meet for our monthly meetings (as above). 9:30AM. Start heading north up Windsor rd, to Windsor(!), where we make our first stop. Follow Windsor rd straight through a set of lights & just after a bridge is Macquarie Park on the LEFT. 10:00AM. We meet up with a few more people here, and can also regroup before we hit Putty rd. 10:15AM. Leave Macquarie Park, continue north up Wilberforce rd which becomes Putty rd. Pending traffic conditions, there are quite a few large sized truck stops along the way, so if a regroup is necessary it won't be too hard. Otherwise we continue along until... 11:50AM. there's a halfway house/small petrol station about 15mins after we pass Putty Valley rd, we'll stop here for a regroup & a quick bite if needed. We don't wanna hang 'round too long here though. 12:00PM. Continue north. There's some road works going on along here, hopefully we won't get help up at all. If we time it right we'll pass them when everyone's knocked off for lunch. Keep an eye out for road on the right, it's the only one & we should hit it around 12:30PM. After about 15-20 minutes along this road we reach Broke. The area we're stopping for lunch is down a narrow & slightly bumpy gravel road, just before the T intersection at the end of this rd. Theres a really nice lunch are with toilets & bins & plenty of shade & we should also have our own BBQ, with sausage sandwiches & cans of soft drink for sale. We'll try to head off around 2:00PM. Head east along Broke rd into the Lower Hunter Valley. When we get to a T intersection we go RIGHT, and follow this road down into Cessnock. 2:30PM. We get to another T intersection & turn LEFT, then after about 1-2mins we turn right at an intersection with 2 big old pubs, & head up the main st of Cessnock! There's a couple of petrol stations we can stop at, I'm pretty sure none of them had any 98 octane good stuff, so fill up at the start if you need it. I did it with just over half a tank. 3:00PM. Say goodbye to Cessnock, & simply follow the signs to the F1 and Sydney. We should be back in local territory by 4:30- 5 o'clock. Once we get to the end of the freeway, follow Pennant Hills rd south to everyones favorite location for dinner- Thornleigh Maccas! I will endeavor to supply maps on the day, & will hopefully be able to hand out written directions too. The usual channel 16 on the CBs, & don't forget your cameras! If anyone has any questions or suggestions, please speak up. See you all there!!! [Updated on: Sun, 30 March 2003 01:33] [Report message to a moderator]
