Rover park trip

[NOZ]

Great place to camp. I reckon its rougher than Landcruiser park.

Any thoughts from you guys , regarding its tracks ?

[NOZ]

Also can anyone help me out with posting a few pics ? :?

[crump]

You want to know how to post em, or you want someone to 8O post them for you?

[NOZ]

Well I would like to try first and if that fails then someone can do it for me. If they dont mind that is

I like Rover Park.

Unless its a competition weekend, there tend to be fewer yobs there than at Landcruiser Park (and I'm sure the name of the parks is no coincidence in that :!: https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ )

There are plenty of tracks and the old gold mine at the top of the property is worth a visit, though don't fall in the shaft (take care with the kids) as it is VERY deeeeeeeeeeee..........................p.

Hans and Heidi are lovely people, always up for a chat, and will help you wherever they can. Just ask.


Twas a bit dry I was up there last time. The waterfall would be great after rain. Have they had any that way recently does anyone know ?

[NOZ]

Plenty of rain, the river is in flood at the moment.

[VladTepes]

Lookiing forward to the pics !

Ok here's a few - only a couple drivin shots - I'm always the one taken the photos - so I end up with photos of everyone's elses heaps :evil:

A few shots to show the landscape, waterfall, dam etc.

Great place, great hosts, excellent for family/children too, good array of tracks (well mapped out too). Great camping and space galore https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Sunset on the way in - the car wasn't that clean on the way out!!

http://www.aulro.com/albums/album368/Sunsetwayin.sized.jpg

Baysiders twist - hairy track - especially in the wet (not this day)

I think that this one could be on the agenda of the next GM!!!

[FenianEel]

Id be in anytime, just a pointer though,
as it's near Tenterfield it has an ability to be stinkin' in summer & brass monkey (at night) in winter. But with......
aircon
dams /waterfalls
beer / whiskey

who cares?? :twisted:

Thinking / Drinking - they're all the same

A bit is good

Lots is better

Too much and you're in trouble

Wake up? What...that means you've either gone to bed or passed out... :twisted:

[Steinzy]

I was thinking passed out :twisted:

[NOZ]

We were there 2 weeks ago and it was fantastic weather

16- 18deg at night and 28deg during the day

It is 30ks east of Tenterfield , very hilly and rocky , as I said earlier I think its rougher than Cruiser park. Some of there easy tracks are more like Cruisers hard tracks.

Just my thoughts, maybe that first rutted hill climb spooked me :roll:

[x-box]

I don't believe you! 8O
I'll have to go look for myself https://www.aulro.com/afvb/
Who's coming along????
(have got some 60% rum to keep us warm, just in case :twisted: )

Louis

[NOZ]

Set a date :wink:

[disco95]

Damn it, you guys got all the parks up there :evil:
When's someone with more money than me going to open one up down this way :cry:

We'll discuss a date tonight at the meeting https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

[NOZ]

I am not a member of your club , is it still ok to tag along ?

[Outlaw]

Yeah we've got no problems at all with tag alongs... only really expect people to be a member if they're in our general vicinity and tag along. But on the other hand, we have just had someone from Calamvale join us... but why us and not bris lroc i'm not sure https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Actually, maybe we'll pic a couple dates and offer them to Bris LROC as well to decide on and make it an inter-club trip 8)

[NOZ]

Good idea.

You guys are very active with your harder offroading maybe thats why people are looking at joining your club.

IMO

Thanks
Mark

[Steinzy]

We just like to use our landys the way they were intended to be used https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

[NOZ]

Any news on the Rover park Idea? ( Gold coast club )

[Steinzy]

Possibly on the calander for our first trip in May which would be the 13th & 14th

[NOZ]

I will keep a look out for it

[dungarover]

Hope so, I would be in for a trip out to Rover (haven't been for a while).

NOZ, yes they're not into winery trips and do real four-wheelin'.

Trav

[NOZ]

Yes thats for me. I not a mad 4wder but I do like getting away for a weekend for some offroading and a few beers 8)

[Steinzy]

That brings back memories of Cruiser park last weekend https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Hey Steinzy, whats the fees and so on to be a member of the GCLRC.

[Steinzy]

As far as I'm aware $80 for membership for 12 months that covers insurance and stuff like that.

[NOZ]

no joining fee as such ? And is the 12mths from the date you join ?

Sorry for the questions, have to drag the $$ out of the wife

[Steinzy]

That's right no joining fee, just membership. If you PM Outlaw he will send the form out to you

[Steinzy]

as far as I'm aware it's 12 months from joining!

[NOZ]

Cool thanks

[MickG]

In

[NOZ]

[MickG]

In for the trip....sorry I'm getting lazy with my posts, just chalking me on the board so I get replies to this post.

Aye, Mick

[NOZ]

[Steinzy]

Does somebody else want to be the official trip leader of this one cos I'm taking you guys up the north point of Bribie Island in March???

This coming from the guy who thought LROC Brisbane's meetings on the soutside were too far away :!: :?: :?

:wink: (alll in fun).


GCLRO: By all means let us know when the trup is on / dates etc and we can run an invite or whatever to our club members too. Keep in tocuh.

Yep its a small place in Venezuela, that they should keep things in.


Either that, or I meant "touch".

[NOZ]

Ah yes but the arguments were so stong for me to travel to the southside I thought well if I am going to travel to a meeting once or twice a year I may as well join a club that is proactive with its offroading :wink:

Fair enough. The BLROC is very active in real 4WDing, the RRCQ is but more conservative unless you do my trips :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I'll second that....both that the RRCQ is a bit more conservative and less active in actual 4wding plus Trav's trips are "less conservative" shall we say https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Aye, Mick

[NOZ]

I have not been on one but from what I heard , you are right Mick.

I will have to wait till I get a locker or 2 I think :wink:

[VladTepes]

TRav you still havent come through with that ride you promised me. (Save me destroying my own car, see!). Course that was back in the days of Thomas (or perhasp even Aquarangie).

Is the new conveyance up and running ?

All good things come to those who wait https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

I plan to do more BLROC trips this year if they're challenging enough. I wanted to go to levuka last year but bloody work again and the Rangie was in bits :twisted:
