Staying by my folks tonight in Montana, Pretoria. But I told them that I will rock up very late.
I stayed by you on the last DubRun, I should have asked you again.

Yeah you should have told me. Lets chat at tape-up and we can arrange, my time might be limited tonight but we have plenty time for a beer in durbs also

I see what you did there.

Safe travels and enjoy it guys!

Just over 3 hours before the KZN convoy leaves for Harrismith. See everyone at breakfast. Time for me to leave work and get strange stares in traffic.

Hopefully people in the convoy have some decency to leave their rear fogs OFF.

Anyone from the west going down?

Epic event.
Ian. Comm. Dezzi crew. Today was one of if not the best vw club events ever.

Well done guys.

I am just a bit confused reading this, did they say a tape up is Sunday- tonight 6pm at Greenstone Mall?

No chance with all that fog we actually had

Having been a part of the original DubRun organising committee and then involved for a few years, I know how much work, organising, stress, etc. it can be to prepare and then manage an event like DubRun. Even though I didn't manage to participate in all the DubRun had to offer this year, I thoroughly enjoyed it and I have to compliment the VWCSA committee on another successful event. DubRun has grown from strength to strength and is far bigger than I could ever imagine it would ever be, with more offered in the DubRun pack than what the entrance fee provides for, never mind the events put on over the course of the weekend. And the effort which entrants go to when they 'tape up' their cars is beyond imagination, it is great to see so much effort and thought put in to something that was originally done for a laugh. Congrats and thanks again VWCSA, the committee, fellow members and friends.

P.S. No poles were harmed during DubRun '16. Well, not by me anyway.

I have on good authority that there is a video floating around of you doing a table dance

Would it be possible to make a thread of who won what awards for those of us who couldn't make it for Dubrun
*edit* with some pics of the cars of course

I was about to type a very similar reply

Having been part of DR over the years I know how much blood sweat and tears go into making it happen, Therefore I am truly thankful to the comm for pulling everything together.
I had a blast at Dezzi, Its such a fantastic venue, And i hope we have the opertunity to go there again next year.

I am also amazed how the whole tape up thing transformed over the years, however at the same time im sad at how its evolved. More and more guys are moving away from taping their cars, And I personally would love to see the Comm encourage the okes more to stick to the roots of taping... with blue tape. I dont have an issue with the vinyl themes, But it does move away from the reason why we are taping our cars in the first place. I would just like to see the tape being more of a factor. Afterall it all started to protect your car.

I dont like the idea of split catogories between theme and tape, it should be one, And ensuring its fair is to tie in with the tape, Not everyone has access or funds for full on vinyl themes, And as awesome as it is, i think if the club supports something it should be something viable for the majority.

But like I said, Its awesome to see how things have changed, The above is just my 2c

Roll on DR17

Serious? I saw one group photo where it looks like I am a zombie about to eat someone but I thought I was quite well behaved.

Regarding the tape, I have no idea how guys do it these days, I was lucky enough to have more time and to walk to work back in the day so taping up my cars was easy. Now, I got **** all time this year to do anything, and I overslept

I was lucky to get one day off, I have way too much too handle at work. Good idea though.

Was an epic weekend!

Every Dubrun has been epic and continues to get better each year. Truly an event I never miss!

Enjoyed it very much. Was very bummed that I could not have my R ready for Dezzi. Was heartsore seeing the cars go down and I couldn't join in on the fun.

But the club members made it a great time. Beach bums was epic as usual!
