The Day of the Volkswagen is probably the biggest show of the year in Vic but you;ll have to wait afew more months as its not till the the 27th November.Thers also a big vw swap meet on 3rd October but its not really a show just lots of bits for sale.

i THINK on the 30th? at APVWC in croydon there is a dyno day - thats a show-ish sorta event🙂

Think there is a cruise to Mt Macedon this Sunday... check in the current events section.

nothing in the coming events for this weekends cruise.... only found out through the club magazine...

Oops sorry....thought I'd posted the club calendar for the rest of the year but mustn't have

We had a great cruise today to Mount Macedon...it was so cold and foggy up the top at the cross but it made the big open fire in the pub seem that much nicer

Yes the dyno day is on next Saturday. The gate opens at 9am for a 10 am start on the dyno. First signed up first on the dyno

$35 for members and $45 for non members

We'll have a bit of a car show out the front of AVWPC in Lusher Rd Croyon and the club will put of a BBQ

Mick from AVWPC will have some trophies there to be won but I'm not sure what they will be for...it's all a surprise ❓👍

I'll go search for the calendar now and post it for younn[ Edited on 24-7-2005 by jenz58 ]

I'm interested in the Puffing Billy Cruise Jen, but I'd like to know a rough price guide?

Ta

Matt Gardner gave me the price as it is now but he thought there might be a slight increase....I'll chase up the price again... thanks for reminding me

I saw Matt last Tuesday we have one carriage booked but I think we can do with another one after the good group we had along today
