Having the start location in town or near enough is a nice compromise for those who live out North and those in the South and everywhere in between.

Up the freeway is a good start to get into the back of the Hills. I was thinking that we could maybe follow some of the courses that were covered in the Classic Adelaide. For each cruise we could cover a few of the stages. I know the maps of the courses are available cause I used them to follow the rally and find good spectator points.

What do you guys think?

Head towards M/Bridge on Freeeeeeway and take the turn off on the left to Strathalybyn. Man that is an awesome road, windy, open and fast. No trouble out that way, generally speaking if you get what I mean, as well.

Stop in Strath by the lake, chat, coffee shops or pub there, and mosey on back to Adelaide via meadows & clarendon.

That sounds like a plan to me. Thanks Tangles and Vange for the getting the ball moving. Guess we should have a show of hands to judge how keen people are.

Let the voting begin.

Im in.

[HOSTILE]

I'm down for it....

[vange]

awsome

as long as we dont run out of petrol its ok, cos it seems like a bit of a drive! n dont 4get it gets dark early...can any1 get weather for that day, hope its not raining...

Adelaide City up freeway to lefthand exit called Sthrathalbyn, overpass over the freeway, heads towards Callington / Strathalbyn. This road is good condition, open, windy, fast etc. I open my bike up out there *often*.

There is a Mobil with 98ron in Strath if your car needs fuel...... and a few pubs if you need fuel, but not a big distance really. Real nice scenery in front of the pub nearby to the swimming pool, overlooking the lake. Nice indeed.

From Strath either head up the hill thru Ashbourne and back to Adelaide via Meadows/Clarendon or Meadows/Echunga, or in lieu of Ashbourne head into Macclesfield then Echunga onto Mylor and back to the freeway as such. Or I could show you a nice route down to Myponga!

ok that sounds like a good route. im sure we can discuss and alter it when we meet n drive etc. now lets decide a meet spot. i have a few ideas for near town, ill pm some ppl n get their ideas.

on another note i just had 2 go to stirling 2 open a house for inspection, and on the way bk it was pouring and i was on the speed limit and suddenly hit some water that was running accross my lane and aquaplaned it over 2 lanes for abuot 4-5 secs, lucky there was no cars next 2 me, but prob scared the hell out of the car behind me lol... kept it pretty straight but imagine if som1 with a normal car was driving and didnt c it, so dangerous.

[mr_rbman]

now that i've moved out i don't think mum will be too happy with me missing mothers day lunch! So count me out!

[J_Red33]

I'm up for it guys, getting my exhaust fitted next Friday so it'll be a good opportunity to test it out .

Mother's day's no problem, all happens at breakfast & maybe dinner at my place .

Been on that road to Strathalbyn once at night & I have to say it's one of the best country roads we have around Adelaide so I'd be more than happy to go there again.

Look forward to meeting a few of you guys.

[Madaz]
