Cruise from Domain to Manly for beach festival Free PIZZA!!!

Post by slick »

Kombi Club kept this quiet!!


CONVOY FACT SHEET


Thank you for taking part in the Manly Festival of Surfing’s Kombi Rally!

The Manly Festival of Surfing is a non-profit event, encompassing an art, educational and entertainment programme to make visitors and locals feel included in the surf culture, heritage and history for which Manly is renowned.

In the case of the VW Van, it was a vehicle that allowed surfers the option to live, surf or sleep in their version of the mobile home and it's still a cool ride even in today's world.

The Kombi rally is set to be a highlight of the programme, and everyone is looking forward to your vehicles arriving in Manly!

I'm more worried about trying to put magnets on my bus....

That said I might tag along in an "unofficial" capacity.
