Graham Lewis memorial run - GOR - Saturday 22nd October
Clubbie folk are getting together this Saturday to remember our mate Graham Lewis.
Sure, there might be a few drops of rain around, but that's not going to deter a mob from getting together.
Meet up at Cafe La Hoot, Winchelsea, from about 9:30 Saturday 22nd October.
Following that, a drive together on or close by the Great Ocean Road.
Alan ("longrem" on ozclubbies) of Bendigo asks that we make a donation to assist those with prostate cancer in Graham's honour:

Sandown sprint - Sunday 23rd October
Need a good laugh?
Come along to Sandown racetrack this Sunday to watch a heap of clubman drivers paddle their way around the circuit.
We have one of the healthiest entry lists for clubmans for ages.
Entries include:
* Peter Nowlan, in his Vic Supersprint winning 'Bullet' clubman, well known for embarrassing larger cars
* Our own Wesley Inkster who is no stranger to a circuit, but is out in his Sirius clubman for the first time?
* Championship rivals Les Bone & Chris Randall, neither of whom like a damp racesuit
* James Shone who we haven't seen for a while
* & some of the usual idiots - Roger Kerr, Gavin Eakins & Callum Wright
Evening meeting - Wednesday 26th October
Come along for our bi-monthly meeting of all things clubman at the Manningham Hotel, Bulleen.
Meeting from 7:30pm, but most get there well before for refreshments, eats + stories.
Brad Crick is set to impress us with tall tales of his Aston Martin DBR1 replica build.
Motorkhana at METEC Kilsyth - Saturday 19th November
If you'd like to test your driving skills but are not quite sure about all this racetrack nonsense, this is the event for you.
The Peugeot Club of Vic are holding a tar motorkhana at METEC Kilsyth.
Best of all, they've arranged for a 'Come + Try' arrangement so that you don't even need the normal Motorsport Australia license.
Yep, just $25 extra can get you a license for the day if you don't have one already.
Entry is a measly $30.
Motorkhana is a scream. It's a real test of your car's maneuverability and your driving precision.
Most of it is low speed - third gear will hardly get a look in.
The Pug club make a great social day as well, so even if you're not up for a drive (& you're mad not to be!) come along for a cheer.
Now that you're all revved up, contact me at gavin.eakins@gmail.com for entry forms, but as they say, don't leave it too late.
