Was up there over labour weekend on the saturday. Good last little shred around! Now, that winter is over and Spring is here can we get together sometime. Only thing I've planned is to head over to Timaru for the four and rotary champs later in November. Gonna make a weekend out of it... the gf is somewhat not impressed about, firstly going to Timaru for the weekend and that we are going there to look at and watch cars... hahahahahahah.

Did anyone make the car show down south earlier in the month?

yep went for a bit. we were staying in rivy that night. was horrible weather but still some pretty neat stuff there. 

will have to meet soon before life gets too busy etc. and i leave all of you fine central otago-ian gentleman. 

anyone got ideas for meet locations ? im all ears!

Keen, providing I'm not of kid duty that day, really need to get belts sorted in the hunter

What about in two Sundays time Warbirds at Wanaka coffee breakfast meeting thingy?

[TimShadboltfan27]

thats a great idea. could even do a burn around the lake to Tarras, then back into crompton.

So that's November 4th you're thinking of? 

I'll try get the Mercedes out this weekend to see how it is and will decide from there. 

[TimShadboltfan27]

If not, Gloria will look lol next to stangs and harleys 

[kyteler]

Valid point.

Just remembered it's about three hours to Wanaka.  Enthusiasm waned. 6 hrs minimum of driving and probably two tanks of gas.  Probably be a $400 Sunday.

I have a body busting (multisport)race that day so I'm out

It is exactly this that dampens my enthusiasm also. Much as I would love to meet up with you all my budget does not permit it.

Yeah, but then it becomes an 8hr commute. 

[TimShadboltfan27]

but i hear you folks, bit of a stitch up for those travelling long distances. We do cover a pretty large area here. 

another alternative is exploring more countryside and venturing to a country tav in the middle of nowhere, much like the St Bathans and Nightcaps Hotels. 

Im thinking somewhere like Riversdale, Mossburn. Be a bit less distance for you southern pests, close to a halfway point between central and southeRn cats.

I have every intention of going to this on Sunday providing it doesn’t rain.

As an FYI to Queertown peeps, there may be some snow on the Crown Range first thing for extra Mad Mike fun times.
