09-04-04, 17:43 GMT+10#21 Things to remember
* Bring money for tolls if you're using motorways
* Have your fuel tank filled to the brim with BP Ultimate
* Bring some cash for BBQ or take away... or bring your own tuna sandwich
* Wash and polish car beforehand... I shouldn't have to mention this!
* Make sure your car is up for the trip... Eg. check oils and fluids, tyre pressure. Good idea to have it serviced that week if it is due.
* Have fun, but remember that any silly behaviour gives an excuse for the police to pull you over and defect you.
Who else is planning on coming???

11-04-04, 02:27 GMT+10#26 are we going to try and get stickers?
rainy, last year we left the twin servo's on the freeway at about 8am i think and we got to rockdale at about 9.30am so we were early, but personally id rather be there a bit early than get stuck at roadworks or in traffic or something and be late and not catch up with evryone again, we all got split up on the way to the gong last year and that was the last we saw of some people. plus we will be meeting at a different place to the newy lappers , not sure if Roselands would be further or closer for newy people, they may get there a bit quicker.

11-04-04, 12:04 GMT+10#28 Directions from North
If you we're to come from up north,
let's say you would get off at Pennant Hills Rd from the Newc-Syd connection,
follow that all the way through to the M2 Hills Mwy were you'd turn off,
which then will really become one main road (joins onto Epping Rd. and Harbour Tunnel) leading you to the Airport and onto the M5 East.
The Rockdale Exit would be the one to take (first one on M5 after Airport Tunnel) which means you'll reach Rockdale well before Roselands... which requires you to drive on the M5 a bit more until the King Georges Rd exit.
Expect tolls!!!

That would be a great drive again only to be denied that pleasure this year due to Lawrence Hargreave Dr closed for construction on the cliff. The cliffs are regarded as unsafe to motorists because of large rocks falling. National Park should be OK though. If we stick to the main roads though we can spot each other easier and pull over whenever we need to.
