[Ozstung]

Ok Folks our three monthly drives is upon us again. This time its South of Sydney to the Illawarra.

Meet at: McDonalds Restaurant Liverpool Mega centre cnrs Cumberland Hwy & Viscount pl @8.30 for a 9.00 getaway.

Proceeding to The Royal National Park Heathcote for a drive through (We will not be stopping here as it is a $12 fee- drive through only). Our drive will take in Stanwell park, The Coalcliff sea bridge, Austinmeer, Thirroul. We will then stop at the lighthouse at Wollongong for a quick break.

The next stretch is onto the Big blow hole at Kiama , parking hopefully won't be an issue but someone with local knowledge tell me It can get busy. Thence over to Figtree for a lunch stop at the locally famous Chicko's Chicken shop or if you prefer the Pie cake café next door. We will then wind our way up to Mt. Keira look out for view of the awesome vistas . Leaving home ward bound at ones leisure from there.

This trip will be inconjunction with the Kia Gt Facebook group. Other Kia Vehicles including Stingers will be present.

A word of advise to participants ; to keep enough of a gap to the vehicle in front of you there are some narrow windy roads with little room for two cars be warned heavy braking maybe required.

Lol. Yeah I don’t want people throwing rocks at my car when they see the QLD plates. It’s a bit of a hike for me so I’ll be giving this one a miss but I have to admit being jealous of you guys having the numbers to do these drives. They sound like a lot of fun.

If you do FB I believe there is a reasonable contingent of QLD Stinger owners as well

Will do. Thanks guys.

I can remember when FB was invented people were saying ‘Wow, this is great, other people can tell me what they are doing and I can tell them what I am doing.” I remember thinking 1) I don’t care what other other people are doing. 2) Other people don’t care what I’m doing. 3) The technology for exchanging this kind of information already exists and it’s called a telephone.

Yeah, your right & now we all get selfies or pics of the food they are about to eat...WTF!
Reminds me of a friend who lives in LA & went to NY with the family for NYE, took a photo of 8 people sitting around the table for dinner, she sitting there arms folded with a not happy look on face as every other person in the group were all heads down on their phones.

Am thinking this event may very well be washed out. Weather reports rain every day next week.

I agree with you, however I’m hopeful the forecast can change by mid week, current forecast for next Sunday is for moderate rain, bummer been looking forward to another run but I’m still hopeful.

Don't you want to test your new mudflaps.

I thought you guys were made of tougher stuff, a little bit of rain is going to put you off? I remember growing up in England where it rained for three weeks without a break and that was Summer. Stinger receiptients unite or forever hold your piece.
