2012 Austin7 Rally

 


90th Anniversary National Hub Rally for Austin 7's

Tanunda, South Australia

2012 - October 1 to 5

The Austin 7 Club of SA is hosting this rally.

The start date of this rally has been chosen to coincide with the Bay to Birdwood Run, the largest event for pre 1950 vehicles in the southern hemisphere, which is being held on 30/09/2012. This will enable Austin 7 Owners to enter both events - the Bay to Birdwood Run followed immediately by the Hub Rally.

The Rally will be centred on Tanunda in the picturesque Barossa Valley Wine Region, which is located about 70kms from Adelaide. It will be 5 days of touring, fellowship and fun.

Planning for the weeks activities is well underway. with Registration, Orienation drive and Welcome Dinner on Monday October 1. There will be day runs away from the Barossa into the surroundng countryside on the Tuseday & Thursday. Wednesday will be the opportunity to explore the Barossa itself and visit attractions you may not have seen on the Monday. On Friday there will be a relatively short drive to the Roseworthy Agricultural Campus (set 1886) for lunch and to inspect the Agricultural Machinery Museum. You'll be back in plenty of time to put on your glad rags and be bussed to the finale Presentation Dinner in Nuriootpa.

Entrants will need to make their own accomodation arrangements, of which there is ample to choose form. A list of possible accomodation venues will be posted when entry forms are available in late 2011. Trailer parking will also be made available.
