Hey Roy,
You can count me a definite in....like you said - long time coming. Two thumbs up mate!
I don't see the need in joining any club! ,
all kombi's are already part of one and I wave at all the members every day
Keeping it real !
newsletters probably bi-monthly to include:
other drivers stories,
Old dredged up photos
tech support,
learning from other peoples mistakes,
for sales and wanted
Finds
Show dates - whats happening in your area
Clubs to join
The list goes on.

As the owners of 2 kombi's and 2 beetles and as a member of Klub VW Gold Coast we would like to show our support to you Roy and join the NEW KOMBI CLUB AUST. Don't you belong to 2 clubs Tony?????

Roy, It would be a great idea as you mentioned to do the Nimbin Kombi convoy to open the Mardi gras.
That would be the perfect place to start off.
I went in the bug last year & had a ball, (as the split wasn't started on then).
There is a contingment meeting in Byron Bay that joins the others at Lismore at the starting point.
I am chasing up the info now on times to meet at Byron so I will let you know....
Sounds the the perfect start to the kombi club....

See you there Judy.
Tom, Sue and Will. Might even get the older kids into this one!
Sure, I'm part of two clubs, was three.
I am more than happy to support Roys venture,
I didn't mean to offend you Roy, I appolagise.
but you cant complain that there are not enough events if you dont come to the ones that are organised by the existing local clubs, then start a new collective of enthusiasts, collect all their info to add to a database of entusiasts/potential customers without so much as a get together or event or anything more than stickers, {purchasable from you I expect} in the months since this post began without expecting the odd raised eyebrow.
I'm real keen to be part of what you are doing, as I have two Splittys, and I am keen to support your importing VW parts too, but I am beginning to wonder, exactly what you ARE doing, I am sorry if it comes across as offensive.
What do collective members do? apart from buy stickers and parts, or am I missing the point?
Hopefully we will see you on Sunday,
Cheers Anthony

I did take offence at your remarks, even more so from your last post.
There is no hidden agenda !!!
The stickers will probably be totally FOC to Club members.
The rest of your comments I will choose to ignore hence the editing of this reply.

own busi to worry about, let alone fend off unwarranted
remarks. clubs yeh there is a few but as far as i know 1
kombi club which is just started up (dsk) wheres your negative remarks about their apparent slowness.

After a nights sleep I can not ignore your comments how ever much I try.
1.Any club merchandise which is purchaseable from the Club (not from me as you suspect) will be for the benefit of the Club not any other enterprise.
2. I have leaflets relating to ClassicVW(pacific) if this was merely to generate more business I would continue distributing those only.
3. The 'future' members that have expressed interest are already on 'my database' both avd members and others
4. If you did not mean to offend, then maybe you could call me next time to discuss the matter before making them for public view
5. This post was started on 22/3/05 not months ago
6. Kombi owners as with any VW driver has the right to buy from where ever they want after all Kombi drivers are highly intelligent people and can ultimately make thier own decisions
7. If business was the ultimate reward, why dont we start a VW Club for all Volkswagens after all I sell parts for beetle, type 3's KG's
8. Like I said we have supported local events, was you at Dubfest last year? was you at Action Day, was you at Cleveland, what about dubs by the pub, cant remember seeing you.
Lastly if you want to bag me or my business or question my intentions, start another post specially for the subject a it is not fair on the people who have shown interest in the subject of a Kombi Club
Sorry to all the people who have shown genuine interest, Tony's remarks could not be un-answered
How Depressing this thread gets is unbelievable - one man trying to do something positive for the betterment of a lot of people only to be question - think those with such negative vibes should remove their cranial anal suppository.

No point in aggrovating this any further, if I respond, no doubt it will just make it worse.
I'll just sit back and watch how it unfolds, time will tell, and people can work it out for themselves.
My future queries will be taken up in person.

roy i think this is great as we can meet other kombi owners and even better still get the parts and good advice from others ,oh hang on that what you do in clubs :P
i wish people who dont agree with some thing that doenst fit into their narrow minds would just say nothing and dont join and leave it be.
i think the whole idea of this is to meet others with the same passion and also find part and stuff as well as advice???????
yeeha commonsense prevails

haha, reminds me of the drive-in fiasco...
Roy, doing a good job mate, dsk will be keen to be involved in any venture that see's more Kombis on the road and driving...
See you on the Nimbin cruise...
edited because ive been told lately i stir too much...
[Edited on 7/4/2005 by byronbus]
Maybe the second cruise up here Roy could be a drive-in nite...???
Damn, gotta stop stiring...i am slowly reforming
your stirring and my opinionated offensive posting isnt doing much for our popularity.
You may as well, make it a drive in night, I couldn't care less,
but it would mean you would have to actually do it.
now whose stirring?
care to make an opinionated offensive post? 😀

I've obviously got too much time on my hands

Anyway Roy getting back the 1st run. There's a few travelers on the QLD Nimbin post so it looks like it's on. U have u2u
im there
I think someone needs a hug :kiss

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
And remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible,without surrender,be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly,and listen to others,even the dull and ignorant have their story.
I was going to comment but then I thought is it worth it.
Others on here have already made fools of themselves.
But I will say this,
There seems that there is a lot who want this club and only 1 or 2 that seem threatened by it.
So who cares what the minority think.
Long live the Kombi Club.
Cheers
Dave
congratulations oh wise one. whats threatening about it?
62 Ragtop Herbie with a little extra oomph.
Enough of the bullshit, lets get on with the subject in hand.
Looking through the local calender of events it seems there i not a lot happening between middle of May and August no matter what your orientation.
I propose a few camping weekends in between.
Byron Bay, Cleveland area, Sunshine coast any ideas on venues?
Now all though it will be a Kombi Club outing anyone is welcome to come along and join in. Whether it be for a day or the weekend.
