trsc27, agent, seoul mate and surferdude made the cut.
Left from Landsborough for drive up the range, through Montville, Mapleton, Nambour, to Eumundi.
Three diesels and one petrol engine. (moi). :cool:
I went slowly so they could keep up.
BBQ lunch for the other three teams in Eumundi whilst my wife and I slipped across the road to a cafe. We were on a time schedule so didn't want to do the BBQ thing in case we ran out of time.
Really great to meet the guys.
Sorry we had to rush off guys.

Here's a pic to whet your appetite. Plenty more to follow.

Looking at the pics just feels as if I was there.

The shots on the highway all following each other reminded me of the film The Italian Job.  I started to hum the tune from the film  :lol: :lol:
