Was playing tourist guide to an Aussie visitor last week , so what better excuse than do a visit 90 mile beach , what a surface , looong and flat .
Heres a short video . Where Wizard Smith attempted world speed record in 1932 , he got up to around 220 mph.

g'day Don, i consider the north Home ,although I have been over here in Skippy land forever.
I see you are entrenched in the kawa kawa railway scene. I am old enough to remember seeing k loco's pulling trains of Stock through the main street and the fire engine was a 1934 Ford V8 .

You probably know my old boss from 30 something years ago,Dennis Hewitt aka Dodo .
It's good to See Gabriel steaming again, my old man saw her about 6 or 7 years ago and it wasn't a pretty sight.
