    August Border Loop trip starting time

    Hi folks, although this has been moved to the TRIP section and there is a link to it bellow to get more details, what I am after here is not so much about the trip but suggestions on a convenient starting time for a trip from Beaudesert that would best suite Brisbanites and northerners. The earlier the better but what’s considered too early?

    drivesafe, as the trip time gold coast to beaudesert is about the same as from brissy, and some of us are not early risers, how about depart bdesert at 0730 hrs, that allows an hour travelling from home, and half an hour to prepare, if you wake at 0600.

    I was thinking about 8ish as it’s about a 1 hour drive from Brisbane or Nerang so it will be an early start for all BUT I don’t want to make it so early that those having to travel from from further afield, like the bottom end of the Gold Coast or the northern suburbs of Brisy have to leave at midnight.

    So would 7.30 suite everybody.

    Cheers.
