Canberra: Sunday drive? 29 May -- photos
I am suggesting this as a possible activity, based on one or two RX-8 visitors from Sydney (Revolver!!)
I suggest we meet at the Tradies car park in Dickson at 2pm, then drive out to Gundaroo for a coffee, followed by a drive out to Gunning then back into Canberra.
Who's interested??
To save me PM'ing everyone, can you pass this on to other 8 owners, and let me know
Tim

Bugger, Timbo. I'd like to meet the Sydney blokes, and see Tim Tam's new blue, but on Sunday I'll be halfway between Adelaide and Coober Pedy.
Have a great day!!

I'm in, I'll dawdle along behind at 4000rpm. Perhaps I could borrow Ron's car for the arvo? Shame there are no twistie roads out that way, but such is life.
Timbo, is Ben with the Black RX-8 on this list?

Much obliged for setting this up.
I'll be solo but of course if any other Sydney guys fancy a drive to Canberra and back on Sunday that would be great.
Not being overly familiar with Dickson, what is the street address of the Tradies??
Look forward to meeting whoever makes it.
And Tim, of course we'll wait for you!! :p

Careful Kalli -- we're all hot air up here (and cold feet, judging by this morning's -3C effort) 
Tim Tam now has his car, so rest assured he won't even notice you
But, if you're heading this way, you are most welcome
