Okay people!

Its on this weekend - Saturday 18th, meet 9am at the Baccus Marsh IGA carpark

BYO packed lunch, I dunno if we'll make it to a shop/pub/cafe.

I would also like to stipulate that there is no group or club insurance for this meet - you attend at your own risk. I am only guiding a trip and are not responsible for any actions of others or damages incurred by your attendance.

I hate writing those things ^ but feel that it is necessary to communicate that this is an at your own risk event.

Hope to see you there.

Cheers

Bennie

I'm set for a day trip - gotta do final packing on sunday for a trip on monday, so that unfortunately counts me out

That doesn't mean others don't have to only do a day trip

Cheers

I'm now picking up my girlfriends mum at the airport in the morning. I don't think a more dissapointing event could have come up for me to miss out on this.

Bring her with you!! Or do as Preno is planning to if he doesn't make the meet time - give me a call - my number is in one of the above posts if you don't already have it, but don't be looking for numbers

I was hoping to talk to you about that gearbox too...

I'm looking forward to it! Now thinking of a place to stop for lunch

I'll see you all at 9am - you should know what my subi looks like, if not there's a refresher in my sig

I intend to check this site later tonight before I knock off for sleep.

Cheers

Okay, final check before the meet...

Nothing more to report other than I'm still excited and that I got some sleep on the couch at a mate's joint in front of some Mighty Boosh... It was quite a session they had last night

Catch you soon.

Wait out for a trip report, I'm having fun with large image files while trying to upload them to the internet... And there's a few to do too.

Basic jist: All went well. Highlights: Brumbeee had a spark plug drop its spark on his first climb while 4wd'n - turned out the coolant overflow from the bottle was aimed right at the spark lead which steamed up effecting the spark...

Subaruby loved his lift.

I gave my new camera a good workout and got a flat, a common theme emerges there whenever I'm 4wd'n with Subaruby (the flat tyre)...

Cheers
