To our valued guests,
In response to the Prime Ministers advice regarding non-essential travel during the COVID-19 epidemic, we have made the tough decision to close to visiting guests until further notice.
It is our desire to entertain you as guests and we understand from your side how much you wish to get away to Bendleby Ranges, so from all angles we will be doing our best to open our doors to you as soon as possible.
Thank you for supporting our business in these challenging times.
The Luckraft Family

Easy mate , a lot of interstaters enjoy the SA turn as well (and interstate travel is not happening at the moment) the decision was made under the current restrictions and carefully considered . No issues here will hopefully catch up with the SA crew once this pandemic eases .
Pretty silly thing to say when you've never organised one (or been to one ?)

The decision was made to cancel 2 months ago mate. As much as I hated having to do so we had no choice in the end.
If interstate travel restrictions had be eased with the latest gov announcement then maybe we could have still run the event, as it is for all members.
Our interstate friends are an integral part of the success of the meets we hold and have proven so over the last 9 yrs of holding them with awesome friendships made over the yrs, that along with the comradery developed between states due to these meets is one of the reasons the forum as a whole is so successful imo.
It just wouldn't be the same to not have our interstate friends over for a drive on the tracks , banter around the fire , chat about vehicles and general great time we all have as a group like minded folks.
So as disappointing as it is, we won't be having "our" meet this year but all going well we can make up for the next year and likely have a laugh at this covid 19 crap , and the issues related to it.
Cheers
BD.

Ah how touching, you shouldn't BAHAHAHAHA
Nothing silly about it - just forgetful. Didn't think about interstate travel, because I am in SA and so is Bendleby. Should say I purchased my Jimny in March and had a WA + Kimberly trip planned for May/June. $#@%&* Covid stopped that, so I was really looking forward to Bendleby with some 4WDrivers. Maybe I can go on my own, in June?
