Not far from Huntley, we never went that way much when we went down south, prefered taking 27, rather than going through the satellite city.lol :lol:

Hope you intend to come over to Sydney around Easter, though will you be doing Auckland Easter show at this time.

Bit of this, bit of that, bit of everthing, not a lot if I can help it

I have been lucky in the last year, got to both EKKA, and Sydney. The others could be a bit hard due to show commitments. Thoroughly enjoyed both shows, and the warm weather.

Thought I'd keep this thread going because it can be pretty interesting with what photos you can get. Stopped in at the Service centre on the F3 Freeway just before the Toukley turnoff and Justin Dale's rides were parked there. Only the Flashdance and his Cha Cha. Luckily had my camera:

Flashdance Load

Image

Rig and Load

Image


Cha Cha Load

Image

Rig and Load

Image

Both rides

I'd like to see this thread keep on going with photos. I'll try and get photos but its not everyday you just bump into them.

Yeh very interesting seeing how the rides rack up. Na no Australia Day photos. Where I went the only decent thing there was Joyland's Dodgem Track. But another event closeby had the Hard Rock, Hurricane, Round-Up, Cha Cha and a few others so I'll probably be heading there next year. But still a good day to celebrate being Aussie

1) Go to: www.photobucket.com
2) make an account (if you already dont have one)
3) go into the upload section and select the pictures you would like.
4) copy and paste to code onto the board :D

I have a few more photos to upload into this thread. Firstly I'll start off with the Scania Prime Mover with generator on the back of the rig which transports the Top Gun. Sorry image is a bit dark.

I know I've posted a few of these photos already but I'll put them up anyway. First is a full length shot of Foster's/East Coast Amusement's Top Gun all packed up about to be setup.

Next two are Ted Foster's Sizzler and Dodgem Track racked.
