    None that I can see without change on their part,
    Considering I think we have more members than most clubs maybe they should be joining us!

    That's not how it was put to me.
    I was told that they would offer the members here the same insurance coverage and permit access as paid up association members.

    I thought it was worthwhile pursuing as part of a user subscription to here no skin off my nose if you don't think it's worth it, just giving you the option.

    Actually I think it would be worthwhile as an organization to be part of the association and have rep's at 4wd VIC meetings like the clubs do.
    I can't see the insurance side of it working etc unless we were a club

    I believe the insurance is connected to the individual in this case. I'll ask him again.

    Would be interesting to ask how the insurance would work and if I would be protected on a np. Com trip

    ive had a sit down with the board of 4wd vic along with a few mates (one being a fairly well known 4wd personality) last year discussing the associate member thing along with becoming a club, we were more or less told that being an associate member gets you stuff all as you have a 0% chance of getting approved to travel mvo tracks. basically got told there only intrested in working with clubs and not the average 4 wheel driver.

    Forum membership generally does not get the respect it deserves especially from the old school, they miss the fact that we have are large enough to potentially have a bigger political clout quicker than anything the association could wish to have.
    Most club members are surprised to learn the country wide participation in trips we have at np. Com

    I think the attitude and culture of this forum is far different to your standard forum though so can probably understand why...

    I don't have experience with other forums, can you explain where this one is different?

    Insurance on a NP trip is up to the individual. Public Liability is a very grey area
