MG Car Club of South Australia
BREAKFAST RUN REPORT
From..Steve Spong,
Breakfast Run to Angaston Oval
26th August 2018
O
nce more we were blessed with a
perfect winter’s day for our run to
Angaston, as witnessed by the various
classic cars seen out and about that day.
First Timers on the run were long time
club members Chris & Heather Bennett,
so we look forward to seeing them again
on future runs. Run regulars, Gary &
Velli Algate turned up in their new acqui-
sition, a lovely black with a white roof
Mini Cooper S, so adding yet another
mini to the growing number now owned
by club members. Alan & Ros
Foweraker joined us later after watching
their grandson’s footy team making the
under 11s final, so good luck in the fi-
nals.
There were one or two MG troubles on
the day, no doubt due to the cars having
had a winter rest. Roger and Caroline
Boylen’s car needed a push to leave
Veale Gardens but was ok thereafter.
Ken & Barb Dicker had a sick car and so
returned home to later join the group in
their road car. Phil & Esther Smith’s car
was running poorly to Angaston where
the problem was immediately traced to a
red-hot coil! but a new one from the local
auto shop fixed the problem.
At the oval, locals and club members,
Malcolm & Cynthia Helbig arrived in their
red 1970 MGB. They had been out for a
morning run in the sun when they saw a
load of MGs and so came to investigate.
We had a good chat and hope to see
them as participants on a future run.
lunch, where we bumped into none
other than our Mr. President and his
good lady Rosa who were spending a
weekend in the Barossa. Well that’s
Adelaide for you!
So thanks to all who came and to those
who sent their apologies for the day.
