I'm going to be in Cape Town during the first week of Jan 2009. Are you Capetonians keen for a meet up?
We could meet up in Cape Town somewhere (like say Century City), or else do a drive to Hermanus! Or even better, I'd love to drive through the mountain pass where the super cars are 🙂
The date would probably have to be Jan 4th 2009. I haven't booked the tickets yet, so I'll have to confirm.
awesome! I'm up for all 3!
Im in just let me time and place
Should be here, sounds good.
Should be there, just name it...
I'm in! 😀 😀
Me too! 8)
Awesome!! Thanks for the great response 🙂 Now being a Joburger, it's gonna be hard to suggest a time and place. About the only place I know and is close to where I'm staying is Century City. How about we meet at like a Mugg & Bean or something in Century City (is there one?) at like 10am, have breakfast, talk crap, then do a drive somewhere, through that mountain pass 😀 OH, I won't be in my SX tho 'cos I'm flying down, so I'll just be at the back watching the SX's 😂
How about the parking area at Century City where they had the go-karts, next to where that night club was? Get together there, take a few pics and move from there?
Yes, thats the easiest place to meet.
Sounds good, hope that's cool with everyone?
fine with me 😀 😀
Actually no.
We had a Breakfast run there 2 years ago with about 20 sx's .
We caused major upset . Apparently the security thought all hell was going to break out soon .
The Shell garage is a better spot . Or just behind it . Lovely open space for parking and no worries . We can go for a drive and then Have breakfast ? Isn't that better ?
I've been on a few runs and it seems more like the thing to do .
Worcester and back makes for a lovely long mountain pass there and back . or Hellshoogte via Stellenbosch .
It is way better too if we make reservations somewhere at our destination for eaty eaty after drivy drivy . 😉

20 SX's?? 😮 😮
Ok, your idea is great Magic - how long is the drive? Sounds like we might just about make it in time for dinner 😂 Where is the Shell garage you're suggesting? Can someone book us a spot?
The shell garage is at the mall 😂 . Its the only one there actually , on the side . I have just been to Hermanus yesterday . What a lovely trip. About 150+- from the mall at Canalwalk to there . 2 mountain passes included .Could be a bit too far for some . 😕
We could easily make a restaurant booking for the guys at one of the restaurants . Stellenbosch is closer though and so too Franshoek. Not too sure about eating arrangements at these two destinations .
There is also the infamous Car museum just outside Franshoek .
Really good to experience .Cost per entry+- R 60 😀
At a real stretch , we could pull off , set up a braai spot and braai ! This would of course be very informal and I can guarantee wheels would get dirty with dust ! 😉

hehe, yeah sorry I couldn't meet you man... damn work!!
I think the stellies franshoek thing is a good idea too. nice franshoek pass...
All fantastic ideas! I'm keen on the Hermanus drive if it's ok for everyone else, otherwise the car museum sounds great. Since it's a long drive, maybe we have breakfast @ canal walk, then lunch in Hermanus? Riekert maybe you can make a booking at a spot in hermanus?

Yeah I should be able too... there's a nice place called Savannah that makes awesome food plus ample parking too.
I like the car museum, Franchoek sounds good, havnt been there yet. Also, hellshoogte is a nice drive.
Reason I suggested Hermanus was that the Hermanus guys don't have to drive up and down. 😕
I'm also keeen on the Hermanus drive coz it actually is a nice drive and we can really show off the cars . 😛 😛 😛
Stellies and franshoek is so quick . Except of course for the museum which is def a good thang.
Another quick Idea is keeping it in town Etc. The Campsbay , Hout Bay , Chapmans Peak do and back around via OU Kaapse Weg . Absolutely Lovely . Lots of bends and restaurants .
My Vote : HERMANUS ! 8)
