With the official Bay to Birdwood cruise cancelled again this year, we decide we would drive the route as did a number of other clubs.
Great weather on good roads through the hills to Birdwood with 12 cars.

We drove up to Birdwood, stopped for a chat and drove back to Gumeracha for lunch.

Only lost one on the way with mechanical issues. A quick fix and he headed off home to repair.

Tom's ute has very neat engine bay with a red 202 that looks factory. I understand his issue was an accelerator problem.
New builds always take time to settle as Clay can confirm.

Who would have thought there was a a Stringer / Kia club in Adelaide ?
Cheers,
Roger

Yeh my ute broke down. Bloody door handle came off again. I'd have that EK in a heartbeat.
