Trip Scheduling, Booking & Grading Information - Please
At the Gold Coast Land Rover Owners club, our club philosophy is all about getting out as often as we can to enjoy 4x4 driving in the company of like minded friendly people who share a common appreciation for not only Land Rovers, but for safe and enjoyable driving trips ranging from social family day gatherings, through weekend camping trips, to extreme off road adventures.
In the interest of promoting a safe and enjoyable 4x4 club for all our members, potential members, fellow 4x4 clubs and drivers, and those around us, the Gold Coast Land Rover Owners club has devised the following set of guidelines and trip gradings to assist all participants when considering attending an official GCLRO trip or event. These guidelines will allow the GCLRO club, its elected committee and members to effectively coordinate all trips safely and effectively.
Enjoy your club and stay safe!
