QLD - Long Drive to Lunch
Join us for our long drive to The Barn and Scotty’s Garage!
Distance: 265 km return
We will meet up and depart from the Springfield chargers (some of us will be having a coffee at Lotus Cafe at the top of the car park) and then follow the legendary Queensland Cobb and Co Tourist Drive route with a stop at the Gatton QESH Charging Station for a QESH charging demonstration then a stop at the Queensland Transport Museum for a stretch of the legs and a quick look and then on to The Barn and Scotty’s Garage for lunch.
Payment for lunch will be done individually on the day when you order. The Barn and Scotty’s Garage have asked for us to place our orders as soon as we arrive, so they have plenty of time to prepare all your meals for you while you look around.
Important Note: Please ensure that you bring your key fob as the mobile reception at The Barn and Scotty’s Garage is patchy at best and we do not want the MS and MX owners getting locked out of their vehicles!
As always, please keep distance from other members, use hand sanitizer and if you are feeling unwell, please stay home.
Hope to see you there!
