I am waiting for Josh to clean out his inbox, so that I can send him my version of that map.

Basically my ideal run, is just a relaxing cruise around perth, stop for some food along the way and meet & greet.

Im not really up for having a show & shine, as whereever are cars are going/parked up, will look like one anyway,lol.

Basically this is my tinkered version of Josh's ideas. I have included some optionals, as some do not want to go where cop bait can be found, and I know that I might have problems getting the old girl around the tight corners of the Zig Zag.

So have a look and see what you think. Josh if your out there in cyber space????

i like that route. quick bite/beer at the last rop tavern in kalamunda would be nice!

It wasnt long ago i took my torry to the zig-zag with a bunch of mates and i found it quite difficult to make some of the hair pins... so another possible route is to go through mundaring wier road and back out on great eastern highway then Right onto roe highway etc... makes the cruise abit longer but that road is awesome!! My torry loved it there ;)

other than that i like it.. scarborough costal run sounds better to me.

Josh.

What?? No handbrake? :blink:

A line of Torries going down the zig zag would look pretty good just quietly.....but I'm not coming so don't listen to me.

Good luck working out your route guys, I look forward to being able to come along to a future one.

And re-fill half way, haha

Also I have cahnged the map, but as I cant edit the old one......arrgghhh

Changes:

Mundaring Weir instead of Zig Zag

Scab's coastal run instead of Wanneroo (people please confirm that everyone is cool with a coastal)

And people need to decide on a Freo cafe strip or avoid it????



This is going to be a run, NOT a cruise with hooning, burnouts etc.

We all know how to have fun with our girls,and what our limits are, but us Post Vintage's dont want uneccesary attention drawn to our cars. I hope everyone agree's.

I havnt met all of you before, so I am not familar with your driving behaviour, But most Torry owners I meet are pretty level headed. So no offence to anyone, just wanted to get things straight.

Changes seem kool.

Cafe strip is a good run, but not fussed either way.


All the cruises that i have been on from the forums have been very mellow with no hooning behavior.

Sounds like its gonna be a good run. I had better knuckle down and get working on the car.

im not fussed bout the cafe run. Either way it should be a good run!

agreed with the run, not hooning... id rather not have the cops follow us as im sure to get another yellow sticker for another pointless thing (but thats another story)

looking forward to Mo-vember now!!
