Not really a cruise, but would be alright for a browse.

Sunday 20th January - Club Run of the Month
All American Day - Castle Towers, Castle Hill.Hosted by MOCA at the Castle Towers Shopping Centre, if sunny - top floor car park, otherwise the under cover car parks will be used.

Im not a pro on the tolls cause i dont really use them.
I dont think you can get them up here(i might be wrong tho) and i reckon the most ull send on them if you use the ones you can pay on is maybe $8.50 maybe.
There is alot of ways around them, lots of roads n streets to avoid them ill see if i can grab you a map for when you come up.

Hey dude there the same as melb they got big flashing signs with the number to ring you 24 / 48 hours to pay, most still have toll booths on them so just chuck your change in them . except M7 or if you got a vic E tag it will work as well $1 surcharge for being a interstater

At the moment beaches are closed, insane swells 8ft plus waves. Could still go there though, Maroubra and Coogee probally the closest.
The weather here is pretty good too.

(Would certainly be interested but maybe the weekend before, say Jan 20.
A drive I really like is down the Hume to the Mittagong exit. You go through Bowral and take Kangaloon Road through Kangaloon, and down to Robertson. You can then stop at the Robertson Pie shop for a bite. You then take the Jamberoo Mountain Road through Jamberoo. Always good to stop at Jamberoo Pub for an ale. Then a quick run from Jamberoo through to Kiama. This is about a 2 hour easy run from Sydney.
On the way back I normally take the coast road and drive through the National Park.
Whatever is decided I am also keen to go for a cruise).

That was an idea from fiserg from my events thread wot do guys reckon for after the meet???
