No, I'm afraid she has to bring her own MX5. You'd better start shopping. :lol:

Also just curious as to where in Berry everybody is having breakfast? Somewhere good no doubt :D


There are a few places with both indoor and outdoor seating. The choice will be up to you.

Oh and what if it rains? The requirement "top down" wont affect some of us I'm guessing?


As a great man once said, "Moving MX-5 is dry MX-5 ;)" :mrgreen: If the rain gets bad, I'm sure you'll see a few cars pull over and cover up.

Can't wait until sunday!!! Looking forward to meeting you all! :D

Some last minute notes.


Weather:
Cloudy. Isolated showers. Winds south to southeasterly averaging 15 to 25 km/h.
Bowral - Shower or two. Min 13 Max 20
Nowra - Shower or two. Min 16 Max 23
Wollongong - Shower or two. Min 18 Max 23
This is an improvement from last week. :)

If you miss the 6am group:
1. Chase the run down following the route; or
2. If they go straight down the F6 and Mt Ousley Road the run should come back onto the F6 from the new Northern Distributor at North Wollongong between 6.50 and 7.00 am heading south.
3. If they miss us at North Wollongong then they can wait at the foot of Macquarie Pass and jump on the back at around 7.20 and 7.30 am.
4. We are stopping in Robertson village for about 5-10 minutes.
5. We are stopping in Kangaroo Valley village for about 5-10 minutes.

We will hand out hard copies on the morning so you don't have to print this now.

Got Kumho KU31s on and ready to go!

How long would I need to drive to get rid of the 'bad' / 'old' rubber?

It's more to remove the anti mould slippery stuff they have on there.. 100 ks should get rid of it all.
Just don't push it too hard till your sure it's removed. :)

You would wanna hope the tyres are worn in by time you get down here, has been pouring down rain all day! Has even been like thick fog on the roads at times! :(

Hope the rain clears up for tomorrow or at least isn't as heavy :|
