Mick has moved? Well I think I will be bringing the Cale Yarbrough Cyclone 428 for its maiden run on this day, how appropriate.

Hi Mick and Yvette.

For those coming to help out, what time do you need us to arrive?

Thanks.

Tommy

Post by: usmusclecars on July 10, 2014, 02:59:26 PM

Hi Tommy

A few members are coming pretty early in the morning to help setup and do the parkup, so as long as you are here between the 8.30 and 9.30 parkup that will be fine.  :thank: or you can do the meetup at Crossroads and cruise in with anyone doing the cruise.

Hey " team muscle" that's what is was today everyone getting in and getting it done. We had a great day really enjoyed the great atmosphere. Mick and Yvette you were only out done by the pretty princess granddaughter. Your parents were a joy and I really enjoyed sharing my place in the sun with them. Michael and I want to say thank you to everyone for including us, it really makes being a member worth  it just sharing great days like this with our new friends. All the best to Wild West family and team. We will be your posse anytime.

Was a good day thanks to all involved, except for the Bolwells leaving the venue together, they must not have read the flyer or appreciated the venue.

Those Bolwells were beautiful! I talked to the owners, they'd had a run in the morning through the Kangaroo Valley and just stopped by for a look!

What an awesome day!!! Thank you to Yvette & Mick for facilitating the venue & the event, and for all the hard work that most of us did not see. Talking to non-members & visitors, people were amazed at the calibre of cars & the friendliness of the owners.

Thanks also to everyone who contibuted to making the day happen - its very easy to go to an event, have fun & go home but these things only happen when people are willing to step up & contribute.

This Club has fantastic people, great cars, and the ability to organise great events- SO good to be part of it!   :smilies:
