Title: Melbourne Area Meet and Greet
Post by: eddohawk on January 23, 2012, 12:52:23 PM
Hi all

Arnie and I have been messaging about organising a meet and greet for FJ owners.  Were planning on meeting up on Saturday 4 Feb at 10 am in Docklands. Have a coffee, talk FJ stuff and then perhaps a quick spin. I'll let you know the place etc once I've had time to look around. Any suggestions welcome.

PM me if you want my mobile number.

Regards

Mark

Great to see guys. I see Melbourne as the next Aussie Rally venue. Not only because of national & International Bike events in that area, but because of the real possibility of a Global FJ Rally Downunder to coincide with say Phillip island moto GP.

Mark, I had planned a ride up through Yarra Glen, Marysville, Taggerty, Thornton, around the bottom of Eildon to Jamieson, Mansfield on towards Whitfield turning left at Tolmie and dirt roading it through State forest to Samaria Creek then heading home through Bonnie Doon, Yea, Flowerdale and Whittlesea, about 550 twisty Km's, but hey, 10 km's to Docklands sounds like more fun. Good on you for setting this up.  I look forward to telling a few lies and meeting some fellow FJer's.  Could you please pm your mobile.
I will be there!
Thanks
Noel

Hi Noel

PM with mobile sent.  I was planning to reoil the deck but a catch up with some local FJers sounds much better.

It was great to meet Arnie and Noel for the first time yesterday. A good breakfast and talking bikes is a great way to start the weekend and
Noel and I managed to go a quick ride up to Healesville. Hopefully a few more Melbourne FJers can join us next time and we can organise a longer ride.

Thanks again

Regards

Mark
