Adelaide to Victor Harbour Cruise Sat - 6th December 2008

[RedLineResident]

Hey all...

Its been a long long long time since AGT - SA had a cruise.

I am organizing a cruise for the 6th of December, it will have a variety of cars, but my astina will hopefully be there so i would love to see others as well.

Brief Details:


Date: Saturday 6th December
Time: 5:00 meet / 5:30 Depart
Meet: Corner of Jetty road and Commerical Road Brighton (maps.google.com coordiantes:
-35.017667,138.519133)
Destination: Victor Harbour
Path: on the way there– lonsdale hwy onto sheriffs road onto victor harbour rd / on the way back – back roads, plenty of twisties and fun roads to enjoy.

However if you chose to stay away from the twisities on the way back, there is always the option of taking the original way back to the end meeting spot... so in other words those who want to cruise back can go via victor harbour rd, sheriffs rd and lonsdale hwy.

The important thing to remember is that it will be a crusie – not a race! so everyone can drive at their own pace.

Should have a few cars turn out... by that i mean maybe 10 - 12. (hopefully)

Bring friends!

If anyone is keen or if there is any questions, please post here or PM me.

Would love to see some SA AGT members attend this one

Regards,
Miki

[RedLineResident]

i hardly see an issue there :D

its up to you buddy, but it would be good to finally meet you.

[02-KQ-LASR]

i normally only get one day off each weekend.. but if i do get both ill definalyely go too meet everyone. i hope gti goes so i can see my old rims again!

[RedLineResident]

i hope so too

[4ORGD]

im in just gotta get some more people to come out hopefully we can get a few people out there it Should be good..

[SuperMazdaKart]

pm or am?

cruise only? no breakfast/dinner?

[Batty]

I'll try to fit it in, very busy sorting the new house at the moment, would be good to have a break.

[RedLineResident]

PM.

Yes at this stage... its cruise only.

[Batty]

OK to bring the 3 ? if not I can always bring a lancer.

[RedLineResident]

bring whatever man

there will be a bunch of preludes, a few astinas, maybe an celicasupra etc.

so its not exactly a specific car cruise, its pretty chilled and open.

feel free to bring friends if you like as well...

[Batty]

3 it is then as the lancer doesn't have air con or power steering.

[cazza]

were is it leaving from?? glenelg or brighton

[RedLineResident]

Not sure yet mate.

I haven't worked out all the fine details as yet...

I will have that in about a week.

It will be somewhere around there... it makes sense to have a meet down that side of town... but i haven't got a place in mind as yet.

Chances are it may just be at the back of Chalkers in Glenelg (car park at the back of Chalkers - corner of jetty st and partridge st) not sure yet.

[SuperMazdaKart]

i did a cruise to lunch out to VH for the MX-5 forumers. it's about an 80km drive there the most straightforward so definately a full tank for there & back.

[RedLineResident]

Location decided on.

Check original post.

edit:

Anyone else keen

I will be testing the planned route sometime this week. So rest assured there will be no road works or unsealed roads etc.

[RedLineResident]

[RedLineResident]

anyone goin on the xclusive one? (not stealing thread)

If im not working i may be keen.

[4ORGD]

when and where is the xclusive one

[02-KQ-LASR]

check the site.
it s all getting organised for this weekend.

[RedLineResident]

5 Sleeps Left Before the Big Outing.

Even if you don't plan to cruise - come to the meet.

And as we said in the 1st post, there are two options

1/ short cruise to victor and short cruise back - Shouldn't take longer that 2hrs total
2/ short cruise to victor and a longer (way way more fun) way back. - around 3hrs (ish)

Bring Full Tank of fuel (only need about 1/2 - 2/3) But don't be stingy and risk it.

Check tire pressures, fluid levels (eg egine oil, brake fluid, coolant, power steering etc etc)

And make sure your headlights are in good working order - you will need them for the last stretch.

Cameras and UHF radios... great idea if you have them

And finally, just come with a good, friendly attitude and you will have a blast.

(step by step path instructions are being written up right this moment... with a ridiculous amout of copies avaialable on the day... so no one should be daunted by the length of the run, or the fact that they may not know the roads - everything is laid out very simply)

[RedLineResident]

HEY!! Need some numbers ladies and gents

Getting the final tally done and need to have everyone confirm if they're coming or not.

Also if your bringign friends along in their cars please let me know so i can take it into account.

Thanks.

Need to know asap.

[02-KQ-LASR]

looks like a nice turnout!

[RedLineResident]

Thanks for doing that champ.

I would've never got around to it.

It would've been excellent to get some in car shots of the trip along the way, but to the best of my knowledge no such footage exists unfortunately.

The next cruise is being planned now and should be ready for January or maybe February... its all a bit uncertain atm

[SuperMazdaKart]

Already planning next one?

Oh, theres another cruise this saturday 20th being organised from Not Just Brakes Edwardstown. 31 Raglan Ave (behind Castle Plaza on South Rd). Meetup at 2pm till 5pm, leaving at 5.
