DD :wink:

[CraigE]

Love to, but it would be a day trip just for me to get there. :twisted:

[JamesH]

I am regularly booked up on weekends this time of year but I am always interested in principle. I'll be monitoring this thread.

J

[Tyrepower]

Yep, I'm keen. Will try and think of a couple of places.

Lets be a smaller minority group and spoil it for them !!!![/b][/quote]
I like this. Only problem is that the minority groups that get listened too are the destructive ones that want to ruin it for everyone elso, whinge, complain and generally dont have anything else to do with their boring, uninteresting lives. Where us aour minority are constructive, helpful, love our country and access too it, teach or offspring the value of this and love to lead a fun adventurous life. And mainly beacause we are actually right and not sensationalist this is why our point of view seldom makes a mention in the media.

Hope you guys find a good spot for a day trip and have a great safe time.

[RichardK]

If you can work out a date I'll be happy to lead a Harvey Trip

[LandyAndy]

Hi DirtyDawg
Always interested,altough its getting pretty busy at work,but not doing saturdays yet.We do go out fairly regularly over here,a few of us met at Dwellingup a 2or3 weeks ago.It is usually a mix of WA AULROIANS and WA STUMPERS (www.bslras.com) and friends,always a good bunch to go out with 8) 8) 8) .
Also,this sunday is a chance for a Perth meetup for those of us who havent met, at the 4x4 swapmeet,a few have already said they are going,plus Shano and Agrojnr.All we got to do is arrange a time as we got the place.
Andrew

[agrojnr]

I am always looking to go offroading but just need plenty of notice so I can grovel to the miss's


Adam :twisted:

[Frenchie]

I'm always interested in day trips, providing the Defender isn't on horse towing duties. :?

[gghaggis]

Richard,

How about Sat or Sun next weekend (5th/6th) - with this late rain it may still be interesting down in Harvey style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

[JamesH]

Hi Andy

Could you post meet up times/place at the 4wd swapmeet when you get them? I'd like to try and get along. Take my AULORO polo shirt on an outing.

J

[LandyAndy]

Hi James
Ive suggested have a look around the swapmeet,then meetup around 10 or so at the swapmeet.Could go elsewhere for a tyrekick etc,sofar no suggestions.
Those who may be going Me,Shano,AgroJnr,DirtyDawg and Jimmy.
Anybody got any suggestions???
Basically Im free for the day,probably will be picking the mother inlaw up from Padbury later in the day to bring home for a visit.

I am in the middle of packing up the house for moving so could use an excuse to get away on Sunday for a couple of hours or so.

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

Besides, I haven't broken anything for the last couple of weeks - touch wood!

Even _with_ the new tyres :twisted:

So how about Saturday (the 5th)?

[RichardK]

Gordon, I'll see Kevin tomorrow and see if 5th suits, anyone else interested??

Andrew, if you like you can share the piloting with me if it's a goer

Pirate, how about you?

[LandyAndy]

Hi Richard
If you are taking your Disco I will bring mine 8) 8) 8)
Could be interesting.
If you do a full on trip Im interested in coming along for the ride and learn.
Harry

Andrew

[LandyAndy]

Andrew

I may bring a workmate along with his tojo ute,he just got his licence back and is a "new" 4x4 owner so it could be interesting.
Is it OK to mention the trip on the "Black Stump"
Andrew

[Frenchie]

I'm definitely interested in the 5th. 8)

(It would give me an incentive to get the new springs in!)

[JamesH]

Swapmeet in Northbridge you say? That's handy to the Brass Monkey.

So we meet at 10am and then think about a beer?

As for the fifth I am quietly confident. Richard, this time I'll remember to unlock my rear door so you can all get to my recovery gear if we try that last hill again. I'll bring a change of jocks too.

[LandyAndy]

Hi Richard and Co
Im in,looks like Baz from work is in(We get to recover a tojo 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) ) and my Bro is quite interested in bringing his 2a Wagon along(if you like Series Landies you will love this one,4.1 falcon motor/auto/LPG and neat as a pin)
Richard,Matt will be leaving from his missus place,out back of Warnboro way,so may meet and follow you down.
JAMES
Youve got it,BRASS MONKEY for brunch,even if its just me,no Pimms thou style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

[DirtyDawg]

Richard,
I'm in for the 5th please post details for RV when and where etc
cool,
Nice to put a face to a couple of names today at the swapmeet, hopefully see ya saturday..

[harryw]

Sorry could not make the swapmeet yesterday, the packing got in arrears, we actually move house next weekend so the planned trip is also not a goer either.

Will keep a look out for other events


harry

[Frenchie]

Are we on?

If Richard can't make it maybe Andy and myself can find some of the tracks from last time. I got a couple of GPS readings and a map.

Would be better with Richard though, he knows the area very well.

[LandyAndy]

Hi Frenchie
Im keen,my Bro is keen,when I spoke to JamesH,DirtyDawg and Taz at the swapmeet the 3 were very keen,Agrojnr has Disco problems so he probably wont be along.Also,my workmate is wanting to come buy his Tojo is broken,electriggery problems,if its back on the road he is keen.
I wonder where RichardK is,he is normally "around"
Andrew

[RichardK]

Sorry Fellas, I have a very large contract on at work and it has taken all my time, I won't know until Thursday whether or not I will be working the weekend so will let you know then.
If alls well I suggest meeting at the carpark across the road from the Caltex in Harvey around 8.00 am.
All being well I'll take you on some track you haven't been on yet.

[LandyAndy]

Hi Richard
Hopefully you can make it.
Matt would like to meet you in the Rockingham area to follow you down,he has 3.54 diffs in his 2A so no problems keeping up style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif
Andrew

[RichardK]

Won't be a problem, will confirm thursday

[DirtyDawg]

Well hopefully its a goer..If Richard can't make it, Keep the RV at the carpark the same....? pardon my ignorance but wat is the travel time from Armadale to Harvey? just so I can be punctual.

[RichardK]

Armadale to Harvey...............about 75 to 90 mins at the speed limit................of course

[LandyAndy]

Hi Richard
Could you PM a contact no I can pass onto Matt to arrange to meet you,assuning you are coming.If your not how long will it take him from Rockingham.
DirtyDawg,on a previous trip with the "Stumpers" they met up at the Armadale pub.
Andrew

[DirtyDawg]

[RichardK]

Matt, it takes around 1 1/4 hours from Rocky to Harvey.

[gghaggis]

Guys,

I have the GPS coords from the last few trips we did with Richard up to a couple of months ago, so if you want, I can guide through a few of the places. I'm sure Andy knows a couple of tracks too.

DirtyDawg - okay, I'll be at the Armadale Maccas at 6:30am - I assume it hasn't moved in the last couple of years?

Cheers,

Gordon

[DirtyDawg]

[LandyAndy]

Andrew

[gghaggis]

Could those coming along just confirm here, and also where/when they are meeting. Can we agree on a CB channel? Ch 14?

Cheers,

Gordon

[DirtyDawg]
