Heading to Valla for the first time
beachbuggy61 - July 26th, 2010 at 10:26 AM

Hi everyone,
I'm heading up to Valla this weekend like almost everybody else I think! My first time and I can't get away until the wee small hours of Sunday morning so I was just going to make the pilgrimage for the day (I'm near Newcastle so it's not toooooo bad!).

My question is, never having been before, where is the best place to see and be around bugs on that day? In Nambucca Heads town or at Valla Beach? Do I just drive towards the caravan park at Valla if that's the place to be?

Sorry if the questions seem stoopid! Thanks for any hints. Will be there as long as the replacement Compufire holds up! (even if it doesn't I'm carrying the old dizzy cap and leads!):lol:

Thanks,
Marc.

Head to the Valla Beach Resort, that's where the show is on sunday.

You better leave VERY early though, and bring those spares, then you will be right :).

That's cool. LEave at 3am, sit on 110km/h and I should be there between 8 and 9.

Can't wait! Lookout for a bright orange Baja!

Hi Beach,
Make sure the file size is less than 50 KB.

Click on the "new reply" button. At the bottom of the dialogue, you'll see a "browse" button, which you use to go looking for the file on your computer.

That's about it.
