SYDNEY CONVOY TO THE VICTORIAN DATSUN NATIONALS MARCH 2026

Hi Datto friends If you are going and traveling to this event from NSW-Sydney, you might like to join a group.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED PLEASE READ ON otherwise, please disregard this communication.

We are leaving West Pennant Hills at 8am to travel to Eden (total 700km/9hr) on Thursday 26th March.

Friday we will travel from Eden to Lakes Entrance (total 245km/2:40hr).

DAY 1 (490km) Bacon & Eggs / Coffee available at my house from 7-7:30am.

Leave 8am for a 7-8 hour trip, which includes a lunch stop. Travel along M4 / M7 / Picton Rd to Wollongong and then Princes Hwy to lunch stop in Ulladulla.

Leave after lunch (@1pm) to travel (250km) with a full tank to Eden for an ETA of 4:30pm.

DAY 2 (272km) Leave EDEN at 9am. Drive via Rockton (could be a "nice" detour road but needs to be checked out if Datto suitable) or direct to Lakes Entrance to arrive about 11:45 / 12:00 or 12:15 / 12:30.

This outline is flexible, however I need confirmation if you will be coming along from the start or will meet us along the way.

The MONDAY return trip will leave 10am for Batemans Bay.

Tuesday, I recommend using Kings Hwy to Canberra and maybe a stop in Braidwood or Goulburn. I would like to be advised by 16 JANUARY.

BASED ON CONFIRMED PARTICIPANTS I will make accommodation enquiries to obtain group offerings. Group communication will be via a WHATSAPP GROUP. I shall add convoy participant accordingly.

Presently there are three cars going and four coming back. (They multiply in Victoria)

Looking forward to your response.
