Would like to make it, but I'm in Sydney this weekend.

I don't check for one weekend and look what happens. Bugger.

[DeFault]

Can you do another one of these tigger73? The one weekend i dont look and someone does a hills run !!

[Dutch77]

I don't think tigger73 organised it, but these events are run semi-regularly - I believe they have a Facebook page (no good for me as I refuse to subject myself to it).

Anyway, if there is enough interest I'd be keen to do a bit of a VWW meet. The other states seem to have their act together, time for us to do the same? I don't mind organising it if people want to do stuff like this - next month is a bit full but free after that..

Yes you're right I don't organise just repost off the Facebook page in case any VWW want to tag along. It's an SA hot hatch group so open to anything hot or hatch and mostly euro focus.

Agree it would be good to have an excuse to meet up semi-regularly.

[AdamD]

Weekend days are tough, as people are busy, and there's not that many SA members who watch the Social Club section.

Would anyone be interested in doing an evening meet and cruise on an ongoing basis... say something like the first Tuesday of the month, for instance?

[Dutch77]

Agreed - although there is a decent SA contingent that seems to read the social club section AFTER the event.

I'm probably a lot more flexible on weekends and they favour the country drives, but I would still be interested in a semi-regular weeknight gig as well. As you suggested a fixed time makes it easy to plan for - if the interest isn't there then it could be bi-monthly or quaterly or whatever - can always work it out later.

I suppose one thing that may impact mid-weekers more than weekends is the time/location as well. Just depends where everyone is coming from.

[Twin_Dad]

I'd be really interested in a little of both. The cruises for me these days are exactly that very cruisey (no hot hatch here). However I'd just like to start out with a gather / meet / coffee somewhere one evening just to guage the interest level.

[tigger73]

Any other night other than Tuesday is good for me. Suggest somewhere central and ideally with a carpark where our cars can meet. Just a suggestion is Hilton hotel on cnr Sir Donald Bradman/South Rd.
