Post by Ausjacko »

Hi Everyone
For anyone in the Canberra and surrounds, we are planning a meet and drive on Sunday 13 April to celebrate the 50th anniversary of our great cars.

When: 10.00am Sunday 13 April
Where: meet at the Carillion down near Lake Burley Griffin then a drive ending at Black Mountain Peninsula.
What to bring: Your car, friends, seats and whatever you would like to eat and drink.

Details: After a chat and review of the cars, we are planning a short drive around the sites of Canberra before ending at Black Mountain Peninsula for a BYO lunch.
There are toilet facilities at both the Carillion and Black Mountain Peninsula.
BBQ facilities at Black Mountain.

Hope you can join us.

Hi Ian
Sounds great but am organising a Poker/mystery Run with 18 odd Cobras from the Sydney Club around Canberra on that Sunday.Will probably cross paths during the day.

May want to be aware of the Canberra Marathon that is on that weekend.
Certainly stuffed our plans up with road closures.

Thanks, as usual, Jacko is all over that issue, so our original plan of Old Parliament House meeting place was put in disarray, hence the other side of the lake now

You will need to access under Parkes Way at Blundells Cottage.

No access from Blundells. Access is off Kings Avenue into the Carillion. I have confirmed this with the organizer of the running festival. Apparently the maps in the paper are a little misleading.

Can we confirm that access is off Kings Ave and not Blundells Cottage. In hindsight in front of the American Eagle probably would be more fitting?

Yes, access is off Kings Avenue, apparently Kings Avenue will be open by then (is closed for the start of the marathon).
