I'll most likely attend the start point but wont be doing the cruise.

Im not overally keen on cruising thru town and then basically straight main roads to port elliott but as i said i will still most likely rock up at the start to say gday.

Just looked at the map and uhhhhh thats exceptionally straight no real windy places are on it, just a very straight cruise, what happened to going through strath

Sorry Guys, won't be able to make this one.
I have just aggrevated an old back injury from 5yrs ago, two slipped discs in the lower back. I cant spend much more than about 10 mins in the car at the moment, can hardly walk, probly have to go thru physio again later when i'am more mobile.
Can i suggest if you go up the freeway thru Mt. Barker, Wistow, turn off to head towards Strathalbyn, Goolwa, then onto Victor Harbor, then home straight back up Sth Rd to the city.

Have a good and safe cruise everyone

Cheers
Eric

hey guys

eric, thats not good to hear. i have a had a few bad back problems in the past, can really stuff ya up a bit. hopefully the physio helps, if not try swimming. thats what my physio told me to do, although i never ended up doing it.

luke and jason, yeah i had a ;look at the map to and noticed its not very exciting. i didnt make the map. i have no idea how to get to victor, so maybe if one of u guys can suggest some nice windy fun roads. maybe we could go the way eric said in the above post.

Still think the route from mt barker to strath (via flaxley and macclesfield) that i gave you is the go then you can have all the straight roads ya want after that.

Just my 2 cents

Definately the 2nd/3rd option

Postby **aspir3** » Tue Jul 13, 2010 11:02 pm

I think I like option 3.

I don't really know the roads though.

What does everyone else want to drive?

billy boy · Postby **billy boy** » Wed Jul 14, 2010 10:13 am

the other option is to continue through south road to yankallia and then turn off to victor that way. it is a really nice drive up to myponga (awesome views of the sea) and then some twisties before the turn off. sth rd to yankallia and then turn off to the yankallia victor harbor road

mt compass direction usually has a strong police presence

LukeD · Postby **LukeD** » Wed Jul 14, 2010 4:31 pm

I mentioned that direction, even turning off at Beach road Noarlunga
