[Deluded]

[WhiteGTB]

hey trieu, i'll lend you my GPS as i wont need it.

So kind of you dude, I didn't realise pretty much everyone has one except for me, but yeah no need for it.

I am waiting to get my new phone with GPS but just not sure how far away that is

So wait, how many stopovers are we looking at along the way?

*******************************************************

See you all Sunday ladies and gents.

Sorry have to make a correction on the last couple of instructions as the is a no right turn at point 9 so it should read like this with the edit in bold

1. Head west on Viscount Pl toward Cumberland Hwy 17 meters
2. Turn right at Cumberland Hwy 18.1 km
3. Take the ramp to Cumberland Hwy 0.4 km
4. Turn left at Cumberland Hwy/Pennant Hills Rd 14.6 km
5. Turn right at Sydney Newcastle Fwy 73.8 km
6. Exit onto Motorway Link exit 1.5 km
7. Take the ramp onto Motorway Link 6.5 km
8. Continue straight onto Pacific Hwy 22.3 km
9. At the roundabout, take the 1st exit onto Old Pacific Hwy 1.3 km
10. Slight right at Galgabbee Rd 0.5 km

If you look at the satellite view in google maps at point 9 & 10 you'll see what i mean


EDIT:
For the location where we will meet you guys'
After you exit the F3 about 4Km up the road the first EXIT you come across is Tooheys rd take that & thats where we will be.

I decided we will stop there to let any of the stragglers, or those that may get separated on the F3 to catch up , before the final run into the park
