Canberra Meet December 12

paul0075

Guys, I am organising a Canberra Volvo meet in December

There probably won't be any competitions and stuff like that, but just a chance to get together and meet the local gang and try and make some friends. As you know it can be a bit of a slog to make friends in Canberra sometimes.

Please post your ideas and suggestions on this thread. Ta.

Good idea +1 for Brodburger

Depending on the fine details, I might drive up. I have never been to Canberra before, so this sounds like a good excuse.

Brodburger sounds good.

Mad idea
When I was passing through Canberra on the way home from Gerringong I saw some nice 240's, there has to be a couple of like minded individuals around

It seems the vote is for Brodburger. Just be prepared to wait a little for your food, as the place is epically popular.

There's loads of parking there too, and it's close to the Parliamentary Triangle, and some good places for pix of the cars if you don't mind a 10 to 15 minute cruise to a nice lakeside or parkland location.

Accommodation options are everywhere and in all styles. But you do need to get in early as there's always something on here.

And we do like our car show and shine days here. There's usually a few different Euro ones on through the year plus Summertwats of course.

I can't say I've ever waited more than 30 minutes for Brodburger. Ever since they moved to the glassworks they've been much faster.

You've been very lucky, best I've had is an hour. The worst was 90 minutes. When they were in the food van it was just as bad. The burgers are definitely worth it, the chips aren't.

Yeah I don't think I have ever got a brodburger in under 30 minutes either. It you have the time to wait, its certainly worth it though. Id been keen for a meet there.

Looks like Brodburger for the win.

Will need to think of some things to do / look at / cruise.

Have you got a weekend in mind Paul?

paul0075

Not yet. I am simply waiting till I get the Volvo registered so I can join in LOL. Hopefully will be early new year.

jamesinc

Well it's right next to the glassworks, just go watch some glass being blown.

paul0075

It's a good way to kill time till your food is ready.

I am an impatient impala, let's hold it Saturday December 12.

Sure, sounds good. Count me in.

I'm in for Dec 12 ill ask a few of our customers and maybe see if vince harmer will bring one of his cars out

paul0075

Dec 12 may be enough time for the 144 to be registered and ready. It depends on how long I take in between working and how long Ike's need it and if 2500 is going to be enough to cover the work and rego
