    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.... :/

    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.

    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!

    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.

    I'm good for the 25th, not so sure on the other dates though, my roster doesn't go that far ahead.

    I work Sundays and Mondays. A Saturday in early June would suit, I would say.
