another thought that i have had floating around the dark corners of my head for some tiime is, how much of a kick would the sick kids from the hospital ( or home) get if a tuff car - hot rod - truck - etc turned up at their door and picked them up to go cruising.

for example: pick up at nambour hospital : , :eclipsee_ cruise to maroochydore :eclipsee_ , stop on alex hill looking over the beach for some lunch : and some bench racing (telling of tall stories and good lies ) then :eclipsee_ :eclipsee_ back to nambour. bet there wouldn`t be many kids that would knock back a day out like that :1syellow1 :1syellow1 .

maybe you could make this part of a cruise event.

would need a contact at the hospital to help organise who could get a passout from hospital and get ok from familly.

i have heard of bike clubs doing this kind of thing but i`m sure there would be more kids able to go in a car then could ride on the back of a bike.

could also use this as a great opportunity to get some free feel good media coverage as well.

You are an ideas man, will look into it, as Camp Quality gets the kids out on camp to have some fun, and this is a lot of what they do.
Would love a few of the kids to turn up to a cruise event and go for a cruise in a well oiled machine.
