PORSCHES IN THE MIST



Challenging driving conditions at the top of Mangrove Mountain for the Central Coast trio

 Driving the Wiseman's Ferry Road over Mangove Mountain down through the national park and then alongside the Hawkesbury from Somersby to Wiseman's Ferry quickly is challenging in the dry . Fast bends , slow bends , very slow bends, sheer drops , short straights , downhill sweepers , narrow road , multiple bridges - it's 64 kms of mountain roads made for old Porsches . Doing it in the wet quickly in an old Porsche is even more challenging as three of us found out on Sunday morning when we went down to join up a great turnout drivers of classic Porsches ( and one Boxster) for breakfast at Wiseman's Ferry .A great meet in a great location .

First to arrive despite the conditions Central Coast contingent Warren , Brett , (and myself ) and our cars . Brett's SWB enjoying its first spirited drive since rebuild . Warren's 76 Targa now in non stealth bomber mode.

  1. It was a wonderful run, made better by the great response.

    Good roads, good food, good company, and as little organisation as possible (ie an organic event)
