I could be interested, what is the story behind the observation runs - I don't totally understand. Do you get directions and then need to check out things and notate them along the way or??????

Cheers,

The directions are very straight forward and tell you which way to go. If your odometer is working you should have no problems. The answers to the questions are visible from the car - no interpretation required.

Lots of fun and no time limit (within reason).

:idea: One other thing while I think of it - only club members can win prizes but membership can be paid "on the day" by any non-members that attend. :)

That date co-incides with a few hangovers caused by Uncle Arthurs Bucks Night the eve before.

Have a good time everyone, we are missing this one.

Actually... I'll give you the REASON I won't be attending either events... The Bucks and the Run.

On Friday next, I meet up with some good mates from overseas, and we head North in a Game Fishing boat from the Gold Coast to Mooloolaba to fish a 2 day marlin and sailfish shootout tournament for $20,000 in prizes.

OH and............. I don't have to pay a cent to fish it... or to drink their beer.

Decisions.. decisions...

and well mikeys Bucks night was supposed to be on the 6th... remember... thats why we couldnt delay the DODGY DAY a week ! *insert an annoyed look here*
