I finally got around to tackling the everton hills/nebo/glorious/everton hills route on saturday in rain, low super thick cloud cover, then more rain.
I tell you what, with two different front tyres a dunlop and a hankook, no tyres in tread depth and all unaligned (brake shuder when doing anything above 80-50), following a 640, 800 and 2 1000cc bikes doing 140-160 on each keeping up by catching up on the corners... try that and BOY do unideal situations really test your ability to feel what your car is going to do.
Lost it three times ie slid my back end out of the lane, twice on double apexs and once because i the music was too loud and i paniced.
Boy was it alot of fun though, we should definately consider this run, it only took a couple of hours. Not for the faint hearted in the rain but it would be quite enjoyable in the dry with decent condition tyres.

Well how about these: EDITED

1) Goldcoast via Tamborine
What we did last time, but without the getting lost
Route: cootha, city, se freeway, mt tamborine road gold coast freeway, lunch, spit in the arvo back via freeway
Description: Some tight mountain corners, little bit of traffic and then joining up to the gold coast hwy crusing along to lunch and to the spit and back

2) Springbrook loop to Burleigh Heads
Route: Same as above but at mt tamborine, continue to mt nathan, advancetown, pindari hills, springbrook through the national park, tallebudgera valley through to burleigh heads
Description: NFI but the maps look good..

3) Mt Nebo, Mt Glorious,
Route: through the gap through mt nebo, samford, detour on clear mountain, dayboro, lunch, mt mee, cabooluture and midway up the coast to homes.
Description: some techical driving needed skills needed, good speed negotiation,
many twisties including a super fun double apex, lots of blind corners and heaps of fun, lunch at the pub and then longer faster section in mt mee too intersection heading towards caboolutre and home via fwys, on a sunday there will be some traffic.

4) Freeway crusing; up to the sunny coast or down to the gold coat.
Description: super easy drive, more of a commute to a location to a beach or park with a big car park where we can talk cars and yell at traffic.

anyhow i can go crusing on any of these any weekend, what do all the folks here want?
