If you guys are going to Stockton let me know i would love to tag along and take come pics, that would be one rare site to see!!!
As for difficult driving, Stockton can be way worse then 9 mile if you know where to look for trouble ;) but typically its a fairly easy drive.
I will be sure to give you a heads up mate!Quote:

A weekend trip?.....camp on the beach and kick tyres and tell tall tales around a fire ?????????

For sure, im keen to drive on Stockton anytime, Once my county is back on the road I will be organising some beach/bush trips, a few of us had been talking about arranging another AULRO trip out there for later on in the year, we could certainly make a weekend of it. Maybe we could arrange for late November? otherwise us local guys always do new years on the beach too, we have done it every year for the last 3-4 we could arrange a trip for around then?
November all Aulro thing with local guides sounds good to me.
Have to see what everyone else thinks,

Hi garrycol, Like the 101, are those tyres miches. I have been running Alliance Nato pattern 900x16 but wanted radials . Michelin said I had to have xl,s. So I bought them , more aroad pattern, they said they dont make xs anymore. These xls are O.K. strong sidewalls , but are slightly over 16" , bugger to centre on rim . Where did you source yours from.
Cheers Didiman.
My tyres are cheap MRF Sand Grip conventional tyres. They seem to perform well both on and off road but after 2500km the wear on primary tread blocks is noticeable. The tyres have smaller primary tread blocks and when these are worn there are larger secondary blocks - there are usually two primary blocks on each of the secondary blocks.Quote:
