More than 300 people in 130 vehicles rolled into Bowral on Saturday night as part of the Variety Dick Smith B to B Bash.
On Sunday morning, participants gathered for a breakfast at Bowral's Bradman Museum, before it was time for departure.
The breakfast was hosted by The Bradman Foundation, Wingecarribee Shire Council, Rotary Club of Bowral-Mittagong and the Bowral Cricket Club.
Sunday was the final leg in the 2014 bash and the weather was ordinary for drivers.
As the rain fell, a small contingent of Highlanders gathered outside the museum to say farewell.
Drivers responded to the support by tooting their horns and music was blared from speakers placed on top of some vehicles.
Participants got into the spirit of the event by dressing up themselves or their vehicles.
Characters included Harry Potter, the Minions and Crocodile Dundee.
Among the field were Southern Highlands representatives Angus Campbell-Jones, Neil Wallis, Nick Pope and Nicko Johnson, all wearing Thunderbirds blue lycra costumes.
Mr Wallis said the NSW bash had raised in excess of $2million.
Money raised will go to the Variety children's charity.
Mr Wallis and Mr Campbell-Jones said it was fantastic to see the bash include a route through the Southern Highlands.
They said it was nice to come home and was a major factor in why they took part in the 2014 bash.
Drivers from the three participating states - Queensland, NSW and Victoria - will meet at Sydney's Moore Park on Sunday to signal the conclusion of the event.
