QLD , Glasshouse Mountains, this Sunday 13/7/14

[04OFF]

Know what you mean by no one turn up! I normally go hunting alone so don't need one. We will be there need to get out of the house!

Steve, I made my own rule a while ago, if I invite someone and they say they will come, then don't turn up for 3 trips in a row (without good reason), I simply don't bother to invite them anywhere again ever, as I figure they obviously don't "really" want to go 4wdriving at all.

Ive honestly been surprised how many friends I know who have 4x4s, yet hardly ever use them off road, this is why I love the forum, lots of people actually wanting to get out and do stuff

Just making excuses isn't as bad as not showing up so you should be right

Whats the cops at glassy situation??

I have heard from a few people that glasshouse has been bombarded by cops and DOT and parks and wildlife. All of which are going gang busters to fine everyone and anyone.

It's a state forest as long as your car is legal registered and you haven't crossed any fence or blocked off area you are fine. No different to mt mee or any state forest

More the legal car part im worried about. Larger tyres.

Im thinking i should just suck it up and go and cop the fine if it happens. I wont be in a patrol tho

Well if your cars not legal you could get done going to the local shops may as well get done having fun

i think alot of people get glasshouse mixed up with beerbrum area there are areas with in glasshouse and surrounding areas you cant go and depending on what side you approach it from it should be signed.
like macca said you can get booked anywhere and ive only seen one 4x4 have to go home on a flatbed due to illegal mods

You guys should make this later in the day . Or I could change my plans and come for a quick run in the morning lol.

Nuh I can't make it this time to much to get done at home. Are you guys keen for a run on the last weekend of this month?

Ive heard about cops @ GH Lachlan, just as you hear about them everywhere else, even on the way in to Landcruiser Park.


Ive never hear anyone say DOT/Cops have been stopping every single car/bike for inspection, when they do this type of bust is when "everyone" is in trouble, even if your car "is" legal, as they are out to issue defects, right or wrong you have a good chance of getting done (I know this from first hand experience)



From experiences on another other forum, I think the cops @ GH are more after unregistered cars and bikes, stuff with 37s and 6 inch lift may also be in trouble, but those guys know they are running the gauntlet 24/7.



Think my car will stand out as the DOT draw card anyway mate (lol), and I can tell you, after my last run in with DOT, im now pretty well prepared with rules and paperwork to fight my case, but still, if they really want ya, your toast
