The Mid-Week Run

David Low — Wed, 15 May 2013 12:25:53 +0000

To-day we held the first mid-week run for our Club. Attending were Garry & Fay Brock (MGB GT), Garry Beaton & Molly (Sprite Mk3a), Miles & Bev Jackson ( Sprite Mk2a) and ourselves in our Bug-Eye. Two couples had to cancel, so it was a small group. Our President joined us for lunch. The weather was not great, but we managed to dodge the worst of it.

The run started at Hazelwood Park winding it’s way through the hills to the Mount Torrens Hotel. On the way we stopped at Johnsons Cordial Factory at Balhannah for morning tea and cordial tasting. While there a huge down pour occurred, but we missed driving through it.The route we took was not direct, but we used some great roads which were mostly deserted. No motor bikes, no cycles.

While the attendance was small I feel we should persist with the concept of the mid-week run, as all agreed it was a good idea. The Hotel great and we had all to ourselves. So when we do it next time please try it out.

Mid-Week Run May 15th

David Low — Tue, 07 May 2013 04:07:19 +0000

We are trying a new concept : The Mid-Week Run. The club now has a growing group of retired people, so here is a chance to enjoy your Spridget mid week. There are certain advantages, such as no ”Sunday drivers”, less motorbikes on the hills, less crowds at the eating venues, and plenty of discounts on meals for seniors.

So if you are going please reply NOW to dslow@tpg.com.au so numbers can be passed on to the lunch venue. Also get your Club points up further.

See you at the start : Hazelwood Park, Cnr Howard Tce & Davenport Tce. Time 10:00am for a 10:15am start.
