    Well it's been and gone for another year.
    Wayne and I would like to thank all those who made the effort. Some from some decent distances to attend. It wasn't the beat weather we've ever had but from a roadster person without a roof, it was manageable. In the end stuff the weather.

    Cool cars and like minded people make this what it is. My son came for the first time. He road up to the start with wayne and I then jumped in with his grandfather in his poly powered 32 5W.

    So I was pretty proud to share the run as part of 3 generations of car guys. That was special to me.

    Again thanks to all who made it the great day it was. And big thanks to Wayne(peddro) for the outstanding poster.

    See you at #11

    Let's start with that poster

    Question for the "Aussies", on the gas sign. I see e10 unleaded and I understand ulp means unleaded petrol. What does dist stand for and shall I presume the gas is what we call propane.

    Just a guess but Diesel? I see regular gas is around 5 cents a litre more than here in Vancouver.

    My son took the photos at the start so excuse the thumb. He did a decent job though as I just sent him off to capture all the cars at the start.

    Thumbs up to the semi-Carouselambra font on the poster. Led Zeppelin would be proud.
    The cruise looked like a very good time. Spring is just around the corner!

    Great bunch of cars and these guys know how to do it right. Donuts and a Pub what more could you ask for. Corey and Paxton did an outstanding job taking pictures.

  28. I'm glad someone picked up on that.....always loved that font as it's got an art deco feel that I put into every poster.
