Pics from Tassie breakie run

62deluxe · 2006-07-23T10:35:27+00:00

Here's a few pics from our breakfast run from Hobart cbd to the beach at Blackmans Bay. It was a great turn out. The weather was good, a little cold in town but by the time we hit the beach it was pretty good for Tas in winter! It was a good mix of air and water, early and late.

Hehe... they may not be as pretty as a Split.. but they're a damn site warmer!!

Went to my mum's after the run today.. She was telling me about back in her hippy days, her sister's boyfriend had a Splitty that they used to go to a weekly jam session.. apparantly they used to cram rediculous amounts of people in this old thing.. and it was drafty as hell!

Mind you, this was in the Snowy Mountains.. my grandad worked on the dams when they were being built... bugs and kombi's were the best thing up there!

Hi All,
I was very keen on coming on this run to meet you all (Well, the ones I haven't met already), but I had an Expo I had my 55 displayed in. Will be on the next run with one of the Splits for sure. What's next & when??

The weather is starting to warm up. Took the cabrio for a cruise yesterday from home, through Williamstown, over the westgate, through stkilda and the city and managed to do it all with the roof down. (Mind you I was wearing a jacket, beanie, had the seat warmers on and the heater pumping) It was a Sensational feeling !!!! I had forgotten how great the cabrio is! Bring on summer

🤘

Hey dont worry about the cold, look at our heads in the pics, we live in beanies and big jackets at this time of year, cabrio with the heaters on full would be tops on a clear winters day.

check your seals, I used to have a Golf that puddled in the floor every time it rained. Could not work out what was causing it... still dont know, but the first thing to do is the seals.

The plastic plumbing under the bonnet vent must be blocked or missing the drain pipe for it to leak like that.
Good luck in the exam mate.

Hey Kristy. Still shopping for something that's suitably tacky. Might try the tip shop...
Thinking of something with a bit of 70's Laminex.

Good luck in your exam thingy!!!👍

Thats great to be honest, but honestly you wouldnt be there if you didnt honestly want the job, and sometimes the honest answer will honestly make you look like a nutter:thumb
