12 rides with their drivers and passengers brave Melbournes wet and freezing last day of winter:o:thumb

Filled up, petrol cap taped, estimated fuel comsumption written down plus klms/miles already done on car - at the BP servo in Deer Park

We're all armed with our map, instructions and questions to answer, and rearing to go

.....

Wolf and Fran's red notch

.....

At Lake Wendouree in Ballarat for the BBQ after stopping at the BP servo just before entering Ballarat to top up, record how many litres of petrol needed and klms/miles

So lucky there was a shelter for us:kiss

Hmmm, the sun is shining briefly here which was good for pic taking

BBQ time at Lake Wendouree , Ballarat, following the run

...

Em's new beetle, Daisy, at the rear and the Ermel's sweet black, split window beetle

Eric from Bachus Marsh (don't forget the swap meet on the 5th October:thumb)

Fran and her notch

Chatting as usual

...No it's not Wolf, it's Matt Kingsleys nice beetle

All the way from WA (well not on the day)

Back of Wolf again (don't ask me why, it must be the new venetian??!!)

And Ben arrived later for the BBQ in his yellow NB

Had used the last shot on the roll

Ballarat later in the day (honest) Jay and I saw a car with ski's on the roof, I swear they'd heard there was going to be snow at Ballarat

Well it felt cold enough for snow:jesus

Thanks for the Pics Jen, much appreciated.
All Wolf needs now is some rear VW Mudflaps... thanks again.. I love looking at piccies of Volkswagens... Air Cooled of course.....
the NB doesn't do any thing for Me... Lee

"Free Pauline Hanson"

No thanks for the mudflaps. Been there, done that.


"Keep Pauline Hanson locked up"

LOL

ditto Jay:thumb LOL

Sorry guys,

We said we would go, but there are some times when a nice warm bed and a sleep in win. :P

"I do believe I cannot make up my mind which is more painful. Hanson or Hansen?"

Oh yer!

What was the outcome of the economy run? :jesus

Hmmm, guys common, please

Flyin VW your online now:thumb

Redbus, please...

Anyone, help:kiss

Should carry some paper to write things down on but never do, and had handed our sheets in, oops

Can remember winners but not what they won for:jesus

Don't want to get it wrong here

Nice photos Jen. :thumb

I hope you don't mind but I sent the first one of the B.P to Matt K to put in the Mag.

For those interested the best result was 47.77 M/P/G. with a 1300 65 Beetle.

Wolf got 36.05 M/P/G. which is also a good result.

Best Kombi 2 ltr 21.2 M/P/G
Best 1500 to 1600 43.1 M/P/G
Best 1300 and under 47.77 M/P/G
Best type 3 32.46 M/P/G

Thanks for posting the results Andrew

I'm no good at that side a things

Nice pics Jen.

I really wanted to make it out on Sunday too...alas the cold weather was discouraging and the snugness of my bed won hands down.

Ah well, next time.
Good on you guys, you are a brave bunch.

Hey We'll catch up one of these days

Think there may have been a couple of us jealous of those still in their warm beds. It was freezing but a great day suffering in good company:thumb

Spewing I had to miss it, maybe next year. :cry

Kol it's a date, be there:thumb

Do they have it every year? Sorta got the idea not. Don't think I've done the full 12 month cycle of events here in Vic yet, or done more than one year - haven't hit the repeat mark yet

Well I've done 2 Day of's

That was the first economy run the club has done since I joined.
There will another one day but proberly in the warmer months.

Cool re the 'warmer':thumb
