Hello All,

Just an update, the committee is looking at finishing the event in greater Hobart now instead of Longford. This is to just even up the travel for all members.

Full details will be posted as soon as it is finalised.

Cheers
Tim

We're definitely interested, the east coast trip was excellent.
I won't know for sure if we can make it until the end of October though, been asked to do a wedding in Broken Hill sometime in March '08.

The next morning we will leave Queenstown and travel through Mt Arrowsmith, Hamilton, New Norfolk and back up the Midlands Highway to finish up in Kempton for presentations and lunch.

Lunch will be at the Huntington Tavern Kempton. We will be able to order directly from the menu so people will be able to choose from a counter meal to lighter lunch depending on preferences.

A lot of these roads are fairly low trafficked, scenic and great drivers roads so pack a change of clothes and come along, enjoy the drive and have a great relaxing weekend away from home.

The club will require a $50 deposit payable by the Christmas break up cruise.

No way I can commit to this before christmas, so I guess I will just have to miss out again

Can understand the commitment part. It is mainly so we can secure the motel down the west coast as it books out quickly. But that doesnt mean you have to miss out at all. If closer to the date you can make it, then we can look at squeezing you in

It's about time we see the TS along on a trip

I can soon fix that for you :P Send it round to me :P

I'm sure one of the boys would be a navigator for you on the overnighter. Some nice roads on the west coast, if you catch my drift

Yeah same. Most likely will be there for part of it but won't require accommodation.

DayTE · 29-11-2007, 05:57 PM

Was my first outing and had a top time, lots of fun and great cars. My partner became a bit "off colour" from the windy roads at times but she still is still keen to go on the next cruise !

Normally I would say yes to the above statement :hihi: . But in the interest of trying to get more members along to the next one, I will say that it was a great weekend. Lots of nice roads to drive along and test out the new brakes

Was also great to catch up with everyone on the Saturday night and have a few drinks and just talk about general stuff.
I can definitely recommend to all our members that they come along and try one of the overnight trips.

Been on the past events on the tastickford site, the pictures are great. How do we get some of that video footage?
