Scheduled Stops:
1. Somerset Dam boat ramps for photos (so long as I remember how to get there)

Reminder of the ECCA Forums FAQs on Cruises (see thread in general discussion section):
----------
Q: How much fuel would I need?
A: Always a good idea to have a full tank BEFORE turning up to the meeting point. There have been times when cruises do veer off to other places as we come across them, so it's handy to have a full tank each time. Regular cruises will be around 300-350kms long. The more hardcore of cruises can/would run around 450-500kms in a day, so be prepared
----------
Q: How much money will it cost me to cruise?
A: Absolutely nothing! All maps are handed out free. The only cost, ever, would be stopping for any breaks etc. Unless a cruise is catered for by eurocca.net, eg: BBQ, there are no costs from you to us at all.
----------
Q: What do I need to bring?
A: Yourself, your car, your UHF radio (if you have one), good driving sense, sense of humour. Still cameras (both digital and standard film) and video cameras are also a good idea to capture the day.
----------
Q: What happens on the cruise?
A: The general idea of the cruises is to take the 'long way' to our destination. All road types are usually covered in the one cruise. They can range from long straight highways, sweeping country roads and tight, twisting mountain roads that challenge you both mentally and physically.
----------
Q: How do we drive as a group?
A: The idea is to convey to the general public that we aren't a bunch of 'hoons' as the media and government perceive us to be. We respect each other as drivers, and other 'civilian' road users as well. Dangerous driving will not be tolerated. Speed limits are adhered to, for our own safety and again, the safety of the general public. The idea is to have a great day, have fun, and not attract any negative attention.
----------
Q: Friends/Family/Non Euro's attending cruises.
A: As a club-wide generalisation, we usually have no issues with non-euros attending cruises. We have members who had joined initially with us and/or close friends who have non-euros and they still like to attend. We obviously reserve the right to change this how we see fit in the future if need be. Obviously this is a Euro-themed club, but anyone is welcome provided they display the right attitude toward cruising.
