    Taree/Forster meet up!

    Hey, I was wondering if people would be interested in meeting up in the taree/forster area to show me some easy tracks so i can learn.

    Cheers

    When you want to go? Might be keen to go up again from Sydney - since I cut my holiday last weekend and we had an average run last time

    What do you mean by that, you were the person that organised the trip.
    I have not commented on the trip last weekend on purpose, that comment needs explaining.
    The meeting point was confused.
    I could have driven straight to the service centre instead of down the highway 20k's then back again on Saturday morning.
    You needed to organise all maps of the area (Including escape routes if there was a fire)and if you didn't have an experienced leader, I know you were let down last minute, put out some feelers.
    Our local club members would have happily helped out even as late as Friday night, you had my number.
    I did enjoy the day out and met some nice people, yourself included.
    It is not easy organising a trip, just doing it is a start, good on you. Mate don't be afraid to ask for a hand as there is always someone to step up.
    Funny thing I bought the topographical maps for the area today as it is a good spot for a drive. ready for next time.

    Statok,
    Apologies for the Hijack.
    There is an active 4x4 club in Taree, great blokes and ladies. You will see our great backyard on our monthly trips and we will teach you along the way. If you are interested PM me your phone and I will call.
    A day trip in the Kiwarrick is not hard to put together, some of our blokes know it like their driveway!

    Well we thought the person taking us will know the tracks - but I guess we expected too much - apparently the following day his nephew came out and showed them the whole track - cut my holidays cause of family member in hospital.

    Don't get me wrong it's an excellent bunch of people - I'm only saying that I probably expected too much and because of last minute changes did not help us either.

    However ill be keep coming back in the area since we have families up there.

    Raf I have been pouring over the maps already. No wonder you can get lost there tracks go every which way.

    Out this weekend on a club trip, so will quiz the "experts" and mark the good tracks.
    Cheers
