Half Day Cruise/Get together.
Location:
Meet at Sutherland at 8am.
I'll PM those who confirm beforehand where we are meeting.
Route
Will go through the usual suspects and maybe end up back in Wollongong for a coffee (take away or in) by the beach.
Royal National Park -> Mt Kiera -> Mac Pass.
Time
Plan for 8am departure from South area and back in Wollongong by 12ish.
Requirements:
* Roadworthy car in good order - tyres and brakes especially
* Check oil & fluids BEFORE arrival - top up if required
* FULL tank of petrol BEFORE arrival - the route used about 2/3 of a tank in the GTI with 9.xL/100Km on MFD. Don't expect to get 98RON easily anywhere down south.
* Check Tyre pressure - GTIs with OEM wheels can usually run 36-37psi front, 35-36psi rear
* Use the bathroom BEFORE we leave - there aren't too many opportunities to stop...
Recommended to bring:
* Walkie-talkie aka CB/UHF radio (FULLY charged), preferrably with hands-free operation (not necessarily VOX). It is useful not only for chit chat, but warning others of road debris, finding people when they get lost and is useful during overtaking.
* GPS (fully charged or with in-car charger) - "just in case". I plan to have a pretty idiot-proof map as I was lost when I followed along with another group. Not going to make the same mistake this time.
* "Sick bags" for passengers if any
Twisty roads travelled:
* Bulli Pass
* Macquarie Pass
* Mt Kiera Rd
* Royal National Park aka RNP aka "the Nasho"
Points of interest:
* Sea cliff bridge

Cam - 2.0L TDI
RobR32 - R32
Thor - Pacific FSI
Dainese - MKIV R32
JohnnyG - R32
Scotty - Pacific FSI
Scotty's Subie Friend
