Yep sharing pics will be great. I quite often find the smaller meets just with a few cars are tops too, gives you better flexibilty if you want to change run plans etc.

Planned date of 27th Sept, is still good.
Meeting at Yaldhurst Tavern carpark 11am, then departing from there to head up through Waimak gorge through to Oxford where we can stop and get chance to talk sh**t and coffee stop etc and then back to chch a your leisure.

Will make trip weather dependant, if it looks crap or like its gonna get crappy we will postpone for another day.

Can contact me on 03 3106363 or 0211318544 on day if unsure on weather.

Oscar are u still keen??
Havn;t had huge interest through forum but i am trying to rally up few outsiders to come along, couple of Porches and another Esprit and Andy from Autotech is looking to come along and is ptting out the word.
Will post list soon of expected cars, so if any one else is keen let me know.

Cheers Nick

Ive had no internet access for the last week (thanks Telstra!)

Yes - im still ok for the 27th

Plan sounds ok - back home from Oxford via Ashley Gorge and Loburn is
much better than the Main Road or Tram Rd

We went for a run on sunday from Christchurch too.
We certainly didnt get the same turnout as Auckland but we got quality over quantity
100% Lotus turnout - well ok it was three

Out of Christchurch to Kirwee, through the Waimak Gorge with lunch at Oxford
Back home through Ashley Gorge and Rangiora

My camera was playing up so hopefully Nick can post a picture
