Herbie 路

How funny,
Guilty as charged, I was up the sunshine coast for thursday friday Saturday and came back, stopped on Zilmere road saturday arvo and was on the mobile to a friend asking directions to his place.
I get a buzz reading how I was seen here or there,

I try to wave at other VWs but often they are not enthusiasts and I feel silly waving to people who look at me oddly and when I decide to relax or concentrate on driving, then someone else catches me off guard and then they pass before I get my wave going.

PS I dont like hats but have learned to wear one in Herbie with the roof back as I have had a few bouts of sunstroke from exposure now.
Between Herbie and the MGB I have learned my lesson.

Cheers Tony

yeah, i know what you mean about the 'wave' thing.
I wasn't driving the kombi Saturday so i had to resist the urge to wave - would have felt a bit stupid 馃榾

Hi,

I also Think I saw Herbie, at the cornor of sandgate road (near the Palms Hotel) on Saturday I was travelling in a aqua 72 superbug 馃檪

Herbie 路

Yep, that was me too, Saturday sandgate road and Sunday, with about 15 -16 veedubs chasing me. hahahahaha

Can't wait till people post saying I saw Herbie doing a wheelie today, hehehe.

I saw Herbie driving over to straddie on Saturday morning.
Quite amazing how high in the water she sat.

Did i see the same one as everyone else???? I did wave but not from the beetle I was on my 60ft motor cruiser so looked a bit silly. you might have seen me it was full of topless ladies :bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce

Herbie 路

Was he on the ocean side or the inland side when you saw him?
He would have been floating high because of the lack of passengers.
I dont know how to stop him popping off like that, but then thats the beauty of Herbie, he thinks for himself.
Even if I could stop him, I would not,
because hes my friend.

Herbie 路

I am surprised that no one spotted me on the outback trip, I went to Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney and waved and got the wave from heaps of VWs and all sorts but no one it appears, saw me.
