Righto guys. Just a quick confirmation that Sunday is still on at this stage. Meeting at 8am at the glass house mountain lookout. Will be leaving by 8:30 so don't be too late. Hopefully as many ppl can come as possible. Also looks like a nice sprinkle over then next few days should make things exciting. :)

I went last weekend and it was surprisingly dry for the amount of rain we have been having so a bit of rain wouldn't go astray and rember when your there as:useless:
I'm still on for Sunday :)
Looking good guys. A light drizzle to smooth the surface. And make things fun :)

get heaps of pics lads
Wouldn't want to hijack the thread with pics outside of this trip but we Started at raaen rd and went north on left power line all the way to peachester and did some exploring between the lines to the north as I've not spent much time up that way but there are a few good washouts and you can tell its been hammers with rain as alot of rocks are exposed on tracks that are usually like highways
A. Putting my name (plus 2 kids) in for a run on Sunday..fingers crossed.
B. Glasshouse has drained pretty well. I am not hardcore, but have been up there for the last three weeks without destroying the tracks, and its good fun.
C. Use some punctuation,becos da abov post is shite.ItsNotHard......apparently,
I'm not on a computer and can't be bothered jumping between keyboards on my phone so you will have to make do...who knows I might even edit it for you later so you can put your tissues away

Sounds good and sorry but I don't do IPhones they're crap but each to there own
Holy shite.
Getting back to Glasshouse on Sunday, cyas at the lookout at 0800(?)...green GU, winch and 33"s with two kids.
The rain is still falling, but Glasshouse has drained pretty well so far.
Butmakesure you hangontoyourtissues,itmayget wet.
Hey guys, is this trip still on with the rain thats about ?
Murray , are you leading the way ? if you are you doing some easy tracks ,(and i know your idea of easy, is not that easy)
Ive got a Hilux from work and i might come say hello, i may need assitance as its gonna get stuck left right and centre, its IFS crap , but better than nothing i guess, thats if you guys dont mind pulling me through some stuff ?
Hi Steve - Lee is probably going to come along and King seems to know his way around, so plenty of local track knowledge on hand :)
Easy-ish run for me too - I have my 'good' wheels/tyres on, mainly don't want to scratch up the faces on the good wheels. I'd throw the old battlecarred wheels on but just can't be bothered... I'll probably regret my laziness tomorrow :1087:
No go for me today :( Hasn't stopped raining at my place, BOM radar says Glasshouse is getting it too and it doesn't look like it will ease up anytime soon.
I just got back, left early cos kids had had enough.
Great drive, but of water about but nothing to bad, chicken tracks always help.
The guys were heading into the wettest part when I pulled out .
Should be some good pic and videos of the days efforts.
Lots of vehicles and bike out as well, good day for the kids.
Cheers

Looking forward to it, how many went in the end ? I'm sure 04off will put up a few cracker photos if the rain didn't deter him getting the camera gear out.
Yeh sorry mate ,as you know im pretty game, but my cam gear stayed in the case im afraid, the conditions just not suited to using it, wet/gritty hands , very slippy surfaces to walk on , lots of mud and water to fall into.
If id not been driving, id have made the effort to get pics as normal, but i honestly struggled to walk the tracks empty handed, let alone run back and forth with the camera.
Was a great day tho, thanks to everyone that went along, we all had a good laugh, plus we didnt do anything too hard , so the lux only needed one recovery !
:clapping:
Sound like a fun day in the mud anyway. That's the main thing.
Hopefully someone got a snappy tho.
..........on the move
Anyone have any pics or vids of the trip? I have a few vids but struggling to get them off my phone, hopefully have it sorted at some stage.
Everyone make it home ok, no damage?
I got some mud in the beads of 2 of my tyres that's it. Now gotta clean em out.
Greg
I think everyone got home without any real damage Dave.
My son aparently has one video he took with his ipod, but he took it to school today and got it confiscated , so i cant see what it is until tomorrow.
Hey Dave , what was the brand of your rear bar again mate ?
MCC mate, the same as the Powerful bar from what I saw when I was looking.
Was a great day out. Didn't get a chance to take many pics my mate has a couple ill try and get off him. Also had my can on in the car most of the time. Haven't gone through to see what it got though. I'll sort it all out soon and get them posted for yas :)

Nice mix of vehicles!
It looks like it would have been slipery.
When is your next weekend off? We'll have to get the GQ utes out
Yeah it was great. Not sure on next weekend off. But might be able to do another Sunday early run. Start work at 3pm though. But always keen if I can fit it in.
