August 21st (Election Day)

Meet Adelaide Aquatic Centre carpark (time between 11 and 12 ??? or later)

Drive out to Stonyfell, through to Uraidla then on to Lobethal , (about 1 hour drive)
Lobethal Cafe or pub across the road, for burger and refreshment.

Northern cars back through chain of Ponds to Tea Tree Gully
Southern cars back through Balhannah/Stirling

Any comments, ideas.
and who's going?

Cheers
Rob

Yeah, and that debate is delaying coverage of the Grand Prix. Wouldn't that make ya sh...ty !!

That's a gand plan Rob. Gotta be there. Is that Greenhill Rd. to Balhanna, then chuck a left through Woodside and on to Lobie? Always a great spot to hang out in the main street of Lobie. Love it !!

Oh,...could be a spare seat if someones game.

Re;August Cruise
Rob, sounds like a great idea. Nice and convenient for me to start at the Swimming Centre too.
I am planning to be there barring some unforeseen event.

Should we put a solid time on this? Perhaps 11:30 for a 12:00noon take off?

Cruises are always weird; you get there an hour early and it seems like you wait too long, you get there 30 mins early and there's not enough time to chat to the people and then get going!

And there's always someone who's late! Hopefully not me...

Cheers,

Dave

Good morning fellow Home Dogs !! As part of the "Super Seven Squadron" who turned up, you may still be coming down from yesterday's experience through the hills. No pics as yet, but a quick note to say this was a special run with a great bunch of Belletiers.

It was a great winter day for a run up thru the fantastic Adelaide Hills.
a full range of sedans and one GT. Nicely presented as usual. Well done Mr B

Met up at the Swim Center in Nth Adelaide and plenty of greeting and car chat as everyone arrived. Also camera’s came out and should hope some good shots will get posted soon.

RobSA car looked cool as usual and it now has a very nice Sports Steering Wheel.
But it seemed a little off the pace as the 3 lost cars brought up the rear of the pack into Lobethal

Had a great lunch in the local Pub and lots of varied subjects spoken of before most of us headed back across the Freeway and down South of the city

The Grey Shadow still has a 1/4 turn of freeplay in the steering but it managed to stay on the road and set a good pace for the first group of cars heading home
We lost one car as he peeled of to the right and the remaining 3 headed down Pigot Range Rd into Noarlunga area.

To finish off the day I was changing a front tyre at 10pm on South rd at Darlington
Very glad I had a boot full of tools and a spare with some air still in it.

Now that’s what you call a Bellett’s Day Out !!!

Was a great day for a cruize through the hills, Was surprised at how well the old auto kept up. :shock:
All the Belletts lined up out the front of the Lobethal pub looked great.
All in all a great day with friends and cars who can ask for more.
Paul, we will have to get you into a Bellett as soon as!! :twisted:
Chris..Great Pics
