Thanks very much for the offer, mate. It would certainly make it an easier trip. (Another reason this forum rocks). We still haven't made any decisions yet.

Is everyone familiar with convoy procedure, looks like a few of us going.
spread out could be a while for everyone to get through a stage taking pics etc etc

Woohoo!

Don't worry John you'll be right. Kev did much tougher on almost slicks last year. Albeit winch city it was for him but he did it.
I'm in on this trip by the looks of it. BA you bringing Erica? Beth wants to come too if Erica is...

It is a Sunday and will be an early start with a meet up at about 9-9.30 at Broadford.

I will not be going overboard as I mainly want to test how my car is going after the engine and gearbox work.

For those that have never come along on one of these its very relaxed and easy going and options are there to miss a section if you dont feel comfortable with it.

Tallarook is a much better place to play than Dissapointment for those that have never been there with far less down time between tracks.

Yes uhf 17 and you can meet at my place or at Broadford petrol station.

is this still open to other people mate?

Open to any member mate.
Just thought to add that its highly advisable that everyone brings their own recovery equipment and their vehicles are fitted with decent recovery points. Not that we are going to look out for tracks that we need to pull out the reco gear for but you don't want to head out with nothing but your ride.
Looking forward to a parma and pot afterwards too...

Don't worry Goerge I am in the same boat I have been itching to get out and I can't make this one either. I will be organising one for around the end of April start of May, I am thinking of doing toolangi and making it an overnighter.

Only done a 2 hour run at toolangi once so this will be the 2nd time. You are always welcome to tag along. I'm really torn I'd love to do the tallarook with the patrol guys and meet you all but unfortunately I'd already organised another trip with my mates

Still trying to talk the missus around to letting me go, as I was banned from 4wheeling until I found a job. Doesn't look promising but I'll keep asking. Lol, hope to see you there.

Got approval to come along with the young bloke. Where & what time was the meet up?

Ok. Hastings.....1.5 hr drive to the servo
30th March 2014, 08:37 PM
Bloodyaussie

Just need to add this... I normally do but completely forgot sorry.

NOTE: This is not an official meet up and is only a group of like minded people going for a drive... You come along with the understanding that 4wding can be dangerous and you do so off your own bat.
There is no onus on NP and any damage sustained is the responsibility of the driver.

Minimum of recovery gear is needed and should expect to be self sufficient.
