Don't stress Ian - its all good at our end. It gives Steve a chance to get rid of his reduction hubs and rebuild his engine for better highway cruising speed. Geoff and his family are cool with the postponement - as you say it just gives others more chance to try and jump aboard. Can't wait for it to come around next year! Better pull my finger out and maybe build some sort of splitty :)

I'm still hoping maybe frequent flyer miles might get me down to Vic for ReVolks.

Cheers
Al

Why not work the new dates in with that Volkstrek that's in July next year and have a huge turnout?

I reckon I could make a pretty big magazine feature out of it that would run in VWMA and some other overseas mags.

Hi Ian - the silver lining comment was coz, after talking this up, I wasn't going to be able to make it due to a prior long standing committmment, so I am quiet happy about the change.... :D :wink:

We are definitely up for it Ian. I know Steve is keen still too. I've been chatting with him about tentative dates - but any suggestions others have for dates would be good too.

How about September 1 (Sat) 2013 we leave for Port Lincoln from a number of locations. This is 3 weeks before school holidays so it should be easy to book accom along the way and at van park at Port Lincoln.

One idea is groups from The NSW east coast and Qld meet at Broken Hill Monday 3rd then move on to Port Augusta. We meet anyone coming from SA or Vic or Tas or Nt or Wa there & move on to Port Lincoln in convoy.
Stay at Lincoln for 4 nights to Shark Dive, Drink, Tuna Dive, Drink, Seal Dive, Drink, Fish & Drink :roll:

After all that everyone just goes home their own way in small groups ?

I can organise the diving bits as I am involved with the operators, Someone organises the drinking bits. Spider you still out there ? any chance of a big Shindig at your Farm just out of Lincoln ??

If all good we would get some organisers in each state to organise points of departure for the trip Morts poss SA, Al poss QLD etc etc
I know what I am doing - I Think ?
