Guys,
Knowing how quite a few of you guys are suffering withdrawal from having garaged your rides, thought I'd pass on some pics of a cruise I went on Sunday. It was about 95 degrees and about 90% humidity yesterday.
I think 25 cars attended the day. All Commodores or derivatives, including a Monaro, an SS sportswagon a handful of VX and VE SS (the Australian base for the G8 GT) couple of Clubsports and a HSV 427.
We started off in southern Brisbane and cruised up to a local lake and then waterfall and national park.
Round trip of about 275 miles I suppose, give or take.
No real incidents to speak of. One older car lost a fiberglass section of front bumper and one speeding ticket. But overall everyone was really well behaved and had a good time.

This is a GTS with a cam, HH122 blower, exhaust mods (the list goes on)

After all the rain we've had recently, this is the sort of thing we were encountering a few times on the cruise.
