hey vww brothers,
we havent had a vww gtg/cruise in a while,so golf loon and I decided its about time we have another so we can all catch up.There is a clubvw cruise to GERROA Fishermans club,both from Sydney and canberra so maybe we can hitch up with them..it will be good politics for us,since we had the nats with them!!

what do you guys say???? :? (maybe they will have some good CHIP there for our CHIP THREAD??:D)

would be good to go to this guys,,,we can catch up with the clubvw guys and keep us in the political loop so to speak.no good just using them when nats time comes around.

Well this meet up at the cross roads is ten minutes from my house so I will be there and can direct anyone that gets lost. EG:Ray Lol

Sounds like a great run:)

Yeah that sounds like a good run.
The Crossroads at Liverpool is easy to get to. (unless you are Ray)j:

Also good to goto a Club VeeDub, as the more of us watercoolers get involved with their club, the more accomodating it can become for events such as the Nats.

Sounds good, some a nice drive, not too far, some food and chatting time and probably some beer :)

Better than standing round a dirty workshop IMO.

Thats a few already

gpk_gti - Golf Mk4GTI
Golf Loon - Mk1 16v, or Scirocco, whichever is working :)
static1800 - Mk2 GTI
tk-r32 - R32 I`m guessing
blackgti1.8 - Campaign Mk1 GTI
AGO41T- Passat turbo

and maybe

Peedman
Syncro

ANYONE ELSE

There will also be lots of Club VeeDub members in Aircooled cars, so there will be a fair few of us.

I think this cruise is a good opportunity to show the organizers of the nats that we appreciate their efforts and are a serious force in the Sydney VW Scene.

Golf Loon

Scirocco needs a run with its new BBS Shoes.

This is next weekend folks. Anyone else game to come?

Its not just a cruise, but an observation run / treasure hunt thing if you want. THere will be prizes for participants. A navigator will help, or just come for the drive and the social chat if you cant be arsed with the observation.

Just got back. Great day was had by all.
I think we probably outnumbered the aircooled boys.
It was a select gatthering and very amicable with a bit of confusion and misdirection as usual. :D

I counted

1 Scirocco
1 Genuine Mk1 GTI
1 GTI MK1 Cabriolet
3 Mk2 GTIs, all Red!
1 Token Mk3 CL. Thanks Brian
1 GTI Mk4
1 GTI Mk5
1 Ibiza Cupra Sport

A good drive, especially down kangaroo valley.
Nice to catch you all, pity I forgot the camera, I cant wait for the pics.

A Nice Chase up Mount Ousley Guys. You know who you are j:

24-06-2007, 05:54 PM
hahahaha,what a day! Me and the kids started at 5am this morning as I dropped the wife at liverpool trash and treasure to sell some stuff,so me and the kids were buggered!

awesome run through those twisty bits chasing the scirocco!! and bloody cold! we got a bit lost with the illawarra hwy,but we eventually made our way to moss vale! nice twisty drive down ,I think we hit the speed limit once or twice!!!

had our lunch and a couple of beers at the club,which had a fantastic view,highly recommend it! then a drive for a group shot! very nice spot for a bbq,maybe next time.

hey matt,if you thought the drive up the mountain was fun,,you missed out on the rest with beeza!!
hehehe

uploading all shots now,but photobucket is very slow!!grrr

24-06-2007, 07:05 PM
Nice pics George, got any more rocco shots?

I am truly the master of Chips! Eating them anyway :D

I was pleasantly suprised how well the rocco went. It wasn`t disgraced by newer more powerful cars. Glad I tuned the carby tho.

Excellent run, glad I missed the madness after mount ousley ;)

Great day guys. A 'select' turnout indeed;)

Lots a great roads, tho I made the mistake of letting junior drive out of Moss Vale - he has all the fun down into Kangaroo Valley:(

Great place to meet at the end of it all.

One of these days, I'll get into that fang up Mt Ousley, though I need to set an example you know;)

Anyway, great time had by all:)

yeh it was a good day, for the first time i didn't have a massive drive home! take that sydneysiders!

I was having a bit of fun back from moss vale but got held up behind a kahman ghia half way down so the fun ended quickly.

Three tornado red mk2 gti's!!!! what is going on! this is amazing! ;)
