On Sunday 22 May the club held a run from Gumeracha to Anderson Hill Winery via back-roads. The event was organized by Kev Tipler, and was attended by Mick and Deb Jenner and Marc Turner. Kev also took his neighbours along for the ride. On arrival at the winery we imbibed in wine tasting and ordered Wood-fired pizzas.
The weather held off during the run, but some drizzle came in later in the day. A very enjoyable day for all involved. Well done Kev!
