7:00am: Head off again via Lenswood, Basket Range, Uriadla.
7:30: Few mins at Crafers to re-group, head down the freeway and hear the rotaries in the tunnels :)
8:00am ish - East Terrace Continental for breakfast.
Here's a route-map: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=9+Lower+Portrush+Rd,+Marden+SA+5070,+Austral ia+(Woolworths)&daddr=Gorge+Road,+Cudlee+Creek,+South+Australia+Au stralia+to:Lobethal+SA+Australia+to:Mount+Lofty+So uth+Australia+Australia+to:6+East+Terrace,+Adelaid e+SA+5000,+Australia+(East+Terrace+Continental)&hl=en&geocode=FRyM6_0dVHBDCCGYKv0z9cNUpSk7dJVDgMmwajHYAt xx2bMPVQ%3BFe5g7P0d8jBGCCkX-FLpdUu3ajH4CDwd_Or4yA%3B%3B%3B&mra=ls&sll=-34.91885,138.714285&sspn=0.235907,0.497818&ie=UTF8&ll=-34.917748,138.742561&spn=0.23591,0.497818&t=h&z=12 (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=9+Lower+Portrush+Rd,+Marden+SA+5070,+Austral ia+%28Woolworths%29&daddr=Gorge+Road,+Cudlee+Creek,+South+Australia+Au stralia+to:Lobethal+SA+Australia+to:Mount+Lofty+So uth+Australia+Australia+to:6+East+Terrace,+Adelaid e+SA+5000,+Australia+%28East+Terrace+Continental%2 9&hl=en&geocode=FRyM6_0dVHBDCCGYKv0z9cNUpSk7dJVDgMmwajHYAt xx2bMPVQ%3BFe5g7P0d8jBGCCkX-FLpdUu3ajH4CDwd_Or4yA%3B%3B%3B&mra=ls&sll=-34.91885,138.714285&sspn=0.235907,0.497818&ie=UTF8&ll=-34.917748,138.742561&spn=0.23591,0.497818&t=h&z=12)
This is just intended so everyone can catch up and have a nice scenic drive. I don't want to see stupid driving, some of these are quite dangerous roads if not respected!

Nice route, don't think my engine will be able to start that early... err, I mean my brain. BTW, just be prepared, as fog could be heavy in the hills.

this sounds like fun but i am not sure the that people are going to like the sound of my car at that time in the morning, and the early wake up may be hard too

hope all went well with the rest of the cruise. even surprised myself getting up that early in the morning. excellent turnout considering the conditions (fark it was cold) shame i couldn't of gone further up gorge road but that last corner the clutch started to slip already. figured you didn't get up that early to take the scenic route and didnt want to get left behind.
still probably early enough to catch you back up at the meet for breakfast but bed looks pretty good about now.
oh and wait a go sleep in james :) :) :) :)

Thanks for coming again anyway Simon, would have been much easier to sleep in! :)
Was an awesome cruise, great roads - very scenic! Pity we missed the turnoff to Mt Lofty though :)
Breakfast was awesome, will have to do it all again :)
