Anyway, once I got there, it seemed well set up, a bunch of cars on display, as PSI250 they were running small tagalongs every hours or so, they had a small off road coyurse they had instructors showing people through and Robert Pepper (RMP here) and a ofew others were giving various talks.

It was obviously a drive for club membership, like so many clubs, they are not attracting enough younger members.

But I quite enjoyed the afternoon.... glad I went.

They got our vote (ie credit card details :P). My wife and I enjoyed meeting some friendly members, checking out the display cars (thankfully the one set-up Range Rover on display was a sport!) and the kids ate their body weight in camp oven scones. We did the tag along and had a laugh getting the car ridiculously muddy in some ruts and holes.
I thought it was a pretty good effort for their first time putting on an event like that.
I think I like that there's lots of marques in the club. Much more interesting and I like the inclusiveness. I thought the Darwin Land Cruiser Club were a great mob - welcoming and family-oriented - but I did have to smile and roll with the never-ending obligatory digs at Land Rovers.
