Haulin' the Hume 2013 - April 27-28

I think 2 more days and my Dodge would have been to Gunning for a short test run. Instead We took the Hillman Imp GT for a run to Gunning. A great day and nice Jiggers, Lorries and Coaches Etc. Thanks also to the organisers and sorry I could make it this time. Next time Gadget!!!.

To Bruce and your team. Thanks for a wonderfully organised event. From the 12 members of the Hunter Valley Club that attended the run. Start planning the next one. We had a wonderful weekend. This was our first and will be on everyone hereafter. Stayed in Gunning last night and from the comments made to us the towns folk are really looking forward to hosting the next run. As they said they have learnt from this one as they sold out of food and drinks. Thanks again for a great weekend.

Here is a few pics taken yesterday, some at Gunning and the rest on the side of the old Hume south of Gunning.

Here is a few more.

Just to be a bit different:

Been great everytime i get kicked out of the drivers seat i been having a sneak peak . The geelong boys are just about back into melbourne and we are about 45 minutes behind them

Hey Bruce just a short note, we did finish the run into Yass after Gunning but left our run too late to get accomodation there and being old with manycreaks and ailments, can't slepp under the stars anymore, so contacted Gunning Pub and got a bed there for the night, hence the comments from the locals of Gunning.

Here be sum more!!

Oops!!

Midnight Motors. Starter motor replacement Friday night at the Motel at Casula. Bit blurry but those involved were probably feeling the same.
