Breakfast Run to Rapid Bay 2nd October 2016
his month ' s run was to somewhere we had not been to before , at least not in the past 6 years , and it was to Rapid Bay on the Fleurieu Peninsula . If you haven ' t been to either Rapid Bay or Second Valley recently it is well worth the drive .
Despite it being a long weekend we still achieved a good turn out of the faithful , including two first timers , namely John and Rosie Miles in their excellent 1955 Magnette , and Ken and Heather Burke in their BRG MGB that Ken is in the process of doing up .
It was also the start of " daylight saving " which caught at least one couple out , as the " Tardy Turners " needed a phone call to remind them where they were meant to be at 9am on Sunday morning !
We then had a very clear run all the way to Rapid Bay , picking up MGs along the way and , as we were setting up , in came a quad of " T " types . First in was David McNabb and Kerry Hugo , followed shortly after by Don Walker , Jeanette Walsingham-Meath and Peter Shipside all of whom had driven over from Goolwa in convoy . A great sight .
Peter has in fact joined us on previous outings in his TF or MGWA .
It has to be said that we were indeed very lucky with the weather given the State ' s disaster in the week and given the final deluge that came on the
10
Sunday night , so someone is smiling on MGs .
Thanks again to David McNabb for taking many of the photos on the day .
