Sunday the 18th August - a breif outing in the hills

Hey everyone

Due to the run being cancelled because of unforseen circumstances, Danny and I have decided to hold a small, brief run through Nebo/Glorious on sunday instead.

We plan to meet at 10am for a 10:30 departure at Harry's Diner on Newmarket road. From there we will cruise to the top where we will have lunch at a cafe that rests towards the peak (unsure on name)

Following that a nice drive down the mountain to our final meeting spot. At this stage we are unsure on where that will be but should know before the run

This is only intended to be a really breif run for those that are keen for some mountainous driving :p

Roll call:

1. Eric - SW20

    More an apology than an addition to the rollcall - I'll be in Adelaide.  Sorry, guys - sounds like my kind of a Run.

    Eric, well done on putting this together at short notice. Sorry we cant participate but hopefully Kathy should hear about her surgery this week, so we will catch up in  September on the Run if everything works out. Watch out for a small red Volkswagon van tomorrow  and stay vigilant with all the bikers around.

    I haven't finished an assignment that is due Monday so I won't be making it tomorrow unfortunately.
     
    Sorry about the unfortunate news Walter, I trust Kathy's surgery will go well.


    Go soothingly on the grease mud as there lurks a skid demon.

    Whilst i could not join in the fun, I was sitting at the traffic light where you guys joined Waterworks Road from Ashgrove Avenue (in my Mazda CX7) I told my wife "there goes the club boys - 4 x SW20's, very sad not to see Walters AW11 or any Spyders, but could not keep up with you guys on your way right past my house in The Gap....Hope you had a good time and see you soon.
