Colemine Rd

[Trolatron]

Had a great trip with some mates (5) saturday.We went to a place most men fear to tread as it has a reputation for breaking trucks.
Damage report:
2 starter motors
1 clutch
1 yota engine ( was on its way out anyway)
1 winch ( wont wind in )
1 rolled tyre
2 over heating issues (clogged radiators)

A few mates went through there on 4 wheelers last summer. Even though its a bit dryer in summer they were one sorry looking bunch of blokes by the end of it!!!
How funny are the can trees!? lol
How long did it take to get through?

[Trolatron]

Yes I did notice the can trees.There are two road blocks on jefferson rd, one is a bridge out so we had to detour a few times.Once we got to the start we got threw in about 5 hours.Last time which was like 15 years ago it took 13 hours with about 10 veichles, what the main track is only 3 or 4 Km long isnt it.

You can go up preolenna rd straight to the start of the colemine rd.
Colemine track would have been longer back then, it was logged about 5 years ago so the first few k's are the gravel forestry rd now.

Tap, crackle, pop

Great looking track does it ever dry out??
The pic with the D/Ls looks like the "Croc pit" over here

Looks like a cool track!

[MEGOMONSTER]

Great fun to be had there. Was there any paint colour left on the car or just covered in mud brown


Never argue with an idiot, cos he'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience.
