How a bout a cruise for those Sydney people out to Krispy Kreme at Penrith.
A kewl 50s American style building with nice doughnuts and coffee ... the veedubs will look great parked outside...
If there's interest i'll get it organised.
I was thinking a run down the M4 from Eastern Creek maybe...
XXX-1.8T 路
That was my idea!
Can we do it after Nambucca:bounce
I cant make it to Nambucca until Sunday 馃檨
Maybe we can do it on the Friday nite 馃檪

Anytime Saturday or after lunch Sunday afternoon would be great. I'm up Cherrybrook way.....where would we meet for the cruise?
Squiz.....
HotRodMatt 路
We can do it AGAIN after Nambucca...
I was thinking either on the Saturday Night or Friday Night.
My thoughts are say meet on the M4 near eastern creek - truckstop next to Caltex/McMurder. Cruise from there down the M4 to Mulgoa Road, then straight up to krispy kremes .... in the words of Homer .... ooohhhhhh
Only problem with the friday night is it would have to be pretty late. The freeway westbound sux til about 8pm!

Do yourself a favour and don't be tempted by all the fancy ones on show, get stuck into the "original glazed" I think they are called, they're awesome 馃檪
Oh yeah, I'll be up for another run after Nambucca as the better half is still dirty that I didn't bring any home after the first visit!! What can I say, there were just no spares out of the two dozen purchased...
squizy 路
Bump :bounce
Keeping this up the top for anyone who hasn't seen what's trying to be organised.
Spoke to the missus....apparently she's heard of krispy kreme and went yum big time. We are in for sure.
So.....who else?
Squiz.......

What time and where?
If i go what radio station do i have to tune to to get the footy?
Might bring Blue2 and the wife can bring Daisy?
HotRodMatt 路
The Friday of the Nambucca weekend Barry...
I figure we'll have to leave the cruise til lateish so people can get there after work and miss the M4 traffic. And Krispy Kreme is really an after dinner thing anyway...
How does the truck park next to McMurder on the M4 at Eastern Creek sound? Cruise to Penrith from there and then Mmmm doughnuts....
XXX-1.8T 路

That is the one near Eastern Creek
You aint coming from Sanctuary Point are you Buzz??? :o
buzzbug 路
i am thinking about it blue,
i haven't met any one else from this forum apart from the guys that are in the Shaolhaven Volkswagen club (rufbug and dave becker) so i thought that i would come for a cruise up to penrith and stay the night with mates at the RAAF base in richmond.
I am trying to get in as much cruising before my cruising priveledges are put on hold for two months while i attend a course in singleton.馃槧

Coolies and my mate Alex will be coming too
so it should be good 馃檪
Bring some cameras 馃檪
HotRodMatt 路
Here's an idea... 'cause it gets very crowded there ... particularly the carpark. how's about we put on the warm clothes and keep the cars going into the closest part of the capark. I reckon that t would take 15 - 20 mins for cars coming and going to have all the veedubs right at the building. Now that would be a KEWL pic!
squizy 路
Maybe we should give them a call beforehand and let them know we're coming. If we do get parking out the front, that would make a very cool pic for their own publicity.
Squiz.....
XXX-1.8T 路
that sounds like a top idea:beer
KOM123 路
Couldn't wait for the post-Nambucca event, took the family out yesterday to get couple (well....ok...we left with 2 dozen)...mmmmmmmmmmmm!!
OvalGlen 路

As for Steve i think his coming
Cant wait?
OvalGlen 路
Ok , I'll bring the FREEZING oval..
- but the missus says the cruize will have to be slow and smooth ( she doesnt like following people in the dark ).
And a warning " any one following close to the oval will hear some nasty crunches. ! "
Cant wait for some Hot Tasty Donuts.!.!.!
HotRodMatt 路
This is gonna be great...
The camera is definitely coming on Friday night.
Oasis 路
Can't come now. Got to work. If any of you guys/girls like the band Steely Dan, I'm playing their music at the Basement 29 Reiby Place, Circular Quay till about 1:30-2am Friday night, if you want to party on in town. I can get around 6 people in for free, otherwise it's around $20. Just post or u2u me before 5pm Friday with your (real) name and you'll be on the guest list at the door.
Bill
Bizarre 路
Bugger but :bounce
love Steely Dan
Do you know who owns the Karman Ghia in Barnstaple opposite the park??
Oasis 路
No. I've said hi to him a couple of times. I don't think his initials are KGH like his plates though... He's an older guy with a grey beard. I'll tell him about this forum
squizy 路
Ok guys....I've spoken to Krispy Kremes, and they're ready for us tonight. They appreciated the call, but said that parking might be tough as Friday is a busy night - but will be prepared for the sales influx we will bring.
So....8pm it is at Maccas on the M4. It will be great to meet up with everyone.
And whilst it hasn't been said - please bring your cruise etiquette ie, no rat bagging, and 80 kmph max.馃槑

OvalGlen 路
Big shame Pyro , would have loved to meet.
That offer of the Music at basement would have been great...Where can we Park our Hoards of Dubs around near there???
Oasis 路
The parking SUX big time. I gotta pull up illegally and unload my PA and Keyboard out of the back seat of my bug. That's a sight... no one believes how much shit I can fit in it. I play there all the time so the same offer applies (i.e. free tickets), for any of you guys on this forum who are into music. Still a bummer I missed the cruise. Always on w'ends when I'm working.
squizy 路
Well for those who missed out, we had 7 VW's in our cruise. 2 Kombi's, 4 beetles, and a buggy.
Needless to say, by the time we got the Penrith the carpark was bulging, and the queue for Krispy Kreme would have been up to 50 long.
As for the donuts.....you are talking to the converted here. I thought - nah - they're only donuts - but at the first mouth watering bite I was converted. As were all the kids.
It was great to meet all the guys who came along....Oval Glen and family, and friend Paul in the buggy. Lee who drove 3 hours up from Nowra - back again [were there any donuts left by the time you got home?], HR Matt and Rachel, Barry and his family, and Costa and his girlfriend met us out there [she was your girlfriend wasn't she Costa?].
As the evening wore on, we managed to move our cars out the front of the building, which made for some great snaps.
Next run no doubt will be even larger. Happy donuting! Any pics yet Barry?
Cheers,
Squiz [Paul, Gill, & Erin].

I want to go friday hows up for it
