Cup weekend forum meet up DARGO Oct30th - 3rd Nov

[Rossco]

Just got back- great trip all in all with a few mishaps and dramas, but that all adds to the adventure really!!

Firstly I am happy to take full responsibility for completely stuffing up and navigating successfully to Collins Hut as opposed to Collins Flat- Whoops!! After heading down a reasonable 4WD track with campers in tow (AB and Marks) we reached the camping area which was pretty small, covered with thistles and no toilet. We were pretty much about to set up when it didn't quite feel right so AB and I checked the map and yep . . . O Dear. Ha Ha, it was at this point that I noticed the brake pedal slowly sink and a split had developed in the hose so we slowly headed off to Colins Flat via Dargo.

After calling Winnie he had his old brake lines which he was going to pack and bring up- sweet!Nicko told us about his ankle in the mornig. (Bugger) Anyway many many thanks Winnie and Amy for coming up to Dargo to drop them off- pretty quick fix after that, and spewing you guys missed out.

Didn't get much driving in but headed down to Crooked river which was great I'll put some photos up later. Bit of a downer with the cops but Mudski and I dodged a bullet, they went past but must of been going on home shift.

Thanks too all, special thanks to Jeremy for the tunes Mark and Lou for the Chinese style chicken skewers and nibbles and Sprock and Daniel for heading out for the first time, definatly hope to see you again.
