Okay guys, Christmas is gone, holidays are over, it's time for a Cruise. Suggested date Sat 23rd Feb- that's just over 2 weeks away. Proposed route:- meet at the bottom of the freeway, there's a hotel there we could meet in their carpark, then up the freeway to Stirling, down through Aldgate, Mylor, Echunga, Macclesfield, Strathalbyn. Stop at Strath for lunch, there are a couple of good bakeries there, plus often bikes to look at if you're interested and we can eat in the park by the river. Then either back via Mount Barker and the freeway to just past Crafers then take the Old Mt. Barker Road re-joining the freeway near the Devils Elbow, total distance about 100 km. This route offers 100 kph up the freeway and some nice scenery and twisty bits through Stirling and Aldgate. Actually there's a nice little shop in Aldgate that sells model cars at good prices. If you're interested in stopping there on the way I can let him know to get some models of Z's in. Last cruise we had 6 cars, best on record is 10 I think. Let's see if we can beat it this time.
Sounds like an excellent route, but our zeds no where near complete for a run. Will watch this space and see what eventuates...we always have the subaru.... :/
have you thought about running it on the 3rd of march? that way it can be part of the cruise for a cause being run around Australia for Eric (A2Zed) ?
Unfortunately I can't do runs on Sundays, hence the choice of a Saturday. However we could make it Sat the 2nd of March if that suits others better.
Not sure if thats my weekend on or not. I'll keep you posted. I'll also let some other zed owners know of it
So, with a couple of days to go it looks like the number of zeds joining me on this cruise is ZERO. In that case it's cancelled.
Registered the zed for the first time in about 3 years this week. Once I sort out my shredded tension rod bushes I reckon she'll need a leg stretch! AB
Let us know when you're ready and we'll try to organise a suitable run. What area do you live N,S,E,W?
I'm in the northern suburbs. I'm waiting on an estimate of shipping times from AMS and will let you know once thunderbirds are go. AB
yeah, its about time for a get together & a cruise. Lets get pleanty of notice so we can get a reasonable turn out.
Would love to come out but the poor Zed is still not back on the road(soon hopefully) but can always take the skyline for a run.
Once my zed is finished (a while ) id be keen on a cruise! Keen on a casual meetup in the meantime if there is anything on (car park standing around talking crap haha) Trying to do most the stuff myself so its dragging out lol.... Will post up build thread once I have some stuff worth showing off.
OK guys, lets set a date. It seems several don't have their Zeds ready so how about we meet for brekky at the usual watering hole - Largs Hotel say 10.00 am. I will suggest 4 dates, you let me know which best suits and we'll pick the most popular. Dates are Sat 25 May, Sat 1 Jun, Sat 8 Jun or Mon 10 Jun (pub hol long weekend) We can then either go for a cruise afterwards or set a date for one.
