time for a Perth run AUG 1st 2010

ok guys, I think it's time for another perth run but sans all the politics and stress that was posted before PC 19 which turned out to be a great day.
*** EDIT***
DATE 1st August 2010 Start 10am Anning Park, Thomas St car park, South Lake.
i will again bring a handout of the route as I would like to tweak it a little, may change the mid point to be somewhere like a park where passersby can view the cars.
caio 4 now

While mapping the route I came across Autoscene at Maddington, http://autoscene.com... which I rang in view of a midway stop. Turns out that Darren and the boys sell HSVs etc and In my opinion would be a good midway point for a yak and yarn, and for those who only want a short run. Good PR for Old Holden.com and Autoscene.

So I'm proposing:::

DATES: Sat 24th July OR Sun 25th with SAT 31st July or SUN 1st of Aug

Start, Departing 10.00am From Anning Park 770 North LAke Road, (Thomas St car park) South Lake
LEFT onto NORTH LAKE ROAD
LEFT onto Beeliar Drive which becomes Armadale Rd
LEFT onto Warton Road which becomes Burslem Drive, follow it to the end where it meets Albany Hwy

Right onto Albany Highway and then Left into Autoscene carpark. Approx 35 mins / 20ks.

There is a drive thru Maccas at Olga rd and ALbany Hwy oooorrrrrr maybe our good friends Boxy and Phil could put us together some buns and snags and we could do a quik snag roll barby at Autoscene while we check out the HSV's etc. Then those who want can go home while the Hard Core cruisers can head to Mundaring Weir Hotel, where hopefully the waterfall will be on show as a backdrop for pics.

ONTO Mundaring Weir Hotel
Left out of Autoscene Heading south-east on Albany Hwy towards Herbert St 550 m
15. Take the 3rd left on to Kelvin Rd Go through 3 roundabouts 5.8 km
16. Turn right at Crystal Brook Rd 1.1 km
17. Continue onto Welshpool Rd 850 m
18. Slight left at Lesmurdie Rd Go through 1 roundabout 5.1 km
19. Lesmurdie Rd turns slightly left and becomes Gladstone Rd 500 m
20. Continue onto King Rd 550 m
21. Sharp right at Mundaring Weir Rd 14.0 km
28.5 km – about 44 mins

Follow the Mundaring Weir Road from Kalamunda for approximately 18km. This route takes you past the Weir, up the hill, first road on the right, big sign, can't miss it. Their Sunday Sessions used to be fabulous.

Sounds like a plan Mark.

One suggestion for an alternative route...follow Welshpool Rd right to the end, left onto Canning Rd and immediately right. Left at the end of that Rd, Right at the end again, 1st Left will bring you out onto MDG Weir Rd at Piesse Brook (about 5 or 6 K's east of Kalamunda and about 3 K's east of King Rd).

The above is a GREAT scenic drive through the Bickley Valley.

Another couple of thoughts I had were:

Ridley's Car Museum

Go-karts at Wanneroo

Track time at the RAC (ex-AHG) driving centre at the International Airport (Grogan Rd).

Cheers...Dave

I'm hoping

Being new in the area, hopefully I can make it.

Dave QUTE - you may not remember but I grabbed some rear window chrome from you a few years back for a HJ Wagon I was restoring. I was up north at that stage.

Hopefully I can make it and you can see the outcome of the chrome.

COnfirm Date Please. PC 20

Sad that some of you from PC 19 can't make it, but it's great to hear the yesses from everyone else. As autoScene Cant open on Sunday, We can either
A) choose one of the Saturdays
B) Choose a Sunday and stop at the Macccas or elsewhere nearby, or just use the grass area outside the car yard
C) Plan a different halfway stop.

As for the route from halfway. Anyone who has a detailed option put it forward. I'm happy with what I have set, but I ain't a hillbilly!! LOL

if I wreck it, you can gaurantee it needed to be done!

Hi Paul, im down at busso for the first date, 2nd one im in brisbane then im in nz for a week or so , then i will be flat out after that trying to get things sorted for the hotrod show on aug 28th , cheers McBretto

PC 20

Ok Brett. we will catch up on the next one maybe.
Doh Man.
Last time a lot more people came than posted, so the best thing is to just pick a date and then the people that can on that date will come and the ones that cannot hopefully can go
on the next one.
It at least gives a date for everyone to work towards.
By the way we are easy with any route and any date but would prefer a Sunday drive though.
Cheers Paul.

Did anybody read the Sunday Times?The police and the greenies are stopping cruising through the Cappa strip in Freo because some retards getting carried away in there.
The police say they will target modified cars for mods and
unroadworthyness.So I think PC19 was the last time for an
OH cruise through Freo.

Dammit
Phil.

Everytime I see a hybrid car
I wanna punch it's lights out.

freo cruises

that sux balls big time. why is it that the minority spoil it for everyone. i mean it really is sad.

look at the amount of cars we had go through freo on PC19 and no major issues. we all behaved and got a shyte load of people looking at our beautiful cars and appreciate what we have. might have to take a trek down there to see if this is really true

very disappointed

Matty

if ya want more inches, stroke it

I wouldnt get too worried

I wouldnt get too worried about it. Just the usual blitz! It will cool off and things will go back to normal like they usually do

Willing and ready...

I'm more than happy to bust through Freo...

I don't mind some coppers, but be buggered if anyone is going to stop a brigade of classic Australian history flowing through a classic Australian town...

Who would have the minerals to pull over a s**t load of great looking OH's ?? In the (modified) words of one of our countries finest leaders... "Anyone who books a bloke for a modified OH, is a bum !!"...

Enough said !!

Busy this sunday....but

Hi Gang,

Would have loved to be a part of this cruise,as i have made the last 2 Cruises and thoroughly enjoyed, but Joined a Car Club that has 85% Holden cars and we are having an Open/Family day this Sunday at 11am, so unfortunately cannot make it. But without Plugging our get together(Thats why i haven't noted the car club's name) over yours, why not cruise past for a look. You may see some old faces...
56 Kent st Cannington, just off Albany HIghway.
Weather Permitting, there should be 30-40 cars.

Steve
