NEW ROADS, NEW WINERIES AND A SENSE OF HISTORY FOR 2010
- 5 April
We've discovered some great new roads for this year's Classic with stunning scenery and,
of course, very little traffic. Just right for touring.
One is a little used loop through the Southern Midlands on a route that is marked as
gravel on all road maps but in fact is tarmac all the way.
Another is a 100km run right out into the South West wilderness with mountains that
uncannily resemble the Scottish Highlands.
It is 100 km back again too!
In addition we are taking a look at some fine, and very grand, historic houses and
visiting four delightful historic villages with many old sandstone cottages.
This sense of history is rare in this country and in many ways now is special to Tasmania.
VINTAGE CARS ARE IN
- 2 April
After a spectacular appearance by noted collector Rob Sherrard in a 90 year old Hispano aero-engined monster in
2009 and some inquiries from vintage car owners we are opening up this year's tour for pre-War cars as well.
While some of the days might seem longish for these heavy steering machines we will
have some shorter alternative route suggestions available for most days.
Organisation:
2009 is the 10th year for the Tasmania Classics. They are organised by John Hamilton, a long established up-market Tasmanian tour
operator and a regular London-Sydney Marathon and classic rally competitor. The event is run through his
company Longford Racing Pty Ltd ACN 103 213 010.
