Wangi Wangi

Post by spl65t »

Weekend away on the NSW Central Coast at Wangi Wangi. Great camping spot on Lake Macquarie. Directly opposite Swansea - the location for Volksfest 2025.

Aim was to get a boys weekend away before Xmas, plus we
had to give Shaun’s car its christening camp out to start iron out the bugs. Car was problem free and ran very well.


The run home back to Sydney we cruised north and Lake Macquarie through Swansea and then to Sydney. That part of the drive is a great piece to see if your in the area.

What an epic weekend with two mates that I've known for years.
Was quiet memorable when Warb through a live possum into my bus at midnight, note to self never go to bed first..
New highway flyer gearbox reco has made this thing a treat to drive and the new 1916 is loosening up so can take some revs now.
All in all I look forward to some interstate travels in the new year and get to meet some Mexicans.
