Hi Mahn i was actually thinking of doing the run up Mt Airley in the capertee valley area on the sunday, does that work for you? Its good for me cause i can drop marcos off with stacey on the way through. I have been up a few times but have never walked to the end of the point. Matt

Ok guys i have worked out where we will be going on the weekend of the BBQ.

On saturday there are some tracks around Zig Zag we can play on, there are heaps, dave went on some new ones with the tuff trip blokes from LROC so we can check them out. Saturday will be cruizy, start around 11am or so after everyone has arrived and set up.

Then a bonfire, i might not have time to get out and collect a heap of wood so i will borrow the schools chainsaw and we can get some whilst out 4wding. Plus the usual BBQ of course.

Sunday morning will be a 10am start at the latest as we are heading up Mt Airley (please note there is a $5 per vehicle charge for going up this track to help pay for track maintenance) and there is a half hour walk at the end of the track out to the point to look out over the Caperty Valley, a top view i am told and well worth the look (if it is raining Mt Airley will be cancelled and another track selected)

Again that night there will be camping, eating, drinking and bonfiring.

On Monday we can get an earlier start, would be good to head out around 9am and head over to jenolan caves to explore more of the tracks around there.

These are just my ideas there are open to change if we wish.

OI, if you have some different tracks in mind around capertee valley way i am open to sugestions as this would be new to me and everyone else, i am happy to join you and CJ if Mt Airley isnt to your taste.

Also i have a few kids from school, say 4-5 who are interested in camping for the weekend and coming out 4wding does anyone have any objections to this? Matt

It's probably good I am not going, I don't think my missus or kids would get in the Disco if they heard we were going up Mt Airley again:o:D
Last time one of the kids walked back down a couple of sections after screaming all the way up:p
I also had a heart attack or two on the way up:)

They'll have them out in no time.

Otherwise, grab the tool off them & do it yourself.

Read my post in Technical about the Rover Comp. Injectors are out for a case of beer but he realised afterwoods he had forgotten to mark them so I now have a bag of injectors and no idea which one went where:mad:

So we have some LROC Tuff Trip tracks followed by Mt.Airley just to start off the weekend?

This isn't "Ace's Extreme BBQ" is it? :D

$5 per vehicle fo a Half an hour walk!!! WTF!!!
What happened to the bus???!!!!
$5 should be enough to get someone from a third world country to carry my fat **** to the look out!!:eek:

Gonna be crampy in your Disco Matt.

Don't you spend enough time with them at school??
I thought the idea of a long weekend was to have a break from work Ace.
But if you bring Kids from work I'll bring whatever cartons I have left on the van so you don't feel different.:D

I was hoping some of the lovely members would volunteer a vacant seat, this was planned a while ago but in the end it didnt eventuate. I wanted to make sure there we no objections before i invited some of them along. Its not formalised yet so if there are objections then please say so, they will be here with parental permission knowing that they will be riding in other peoples vehicles, and what we will be doing.

I do see enough of them at school yes, but organising trips like this and going beyond the call of duty allows me to establish a far better relationship with them and subsequently makes my life at school easier.

Are you coming Jason, did you get the rangie sorted? matt

Ok the list so far;

Ace- Disco
Scouse- Rangie
Gug (newbie- a good thing not a bad thing)
Cousin John- Rangie
One Iota- Disco
Discodave
Boggo- probably sunday
Yabbie- if he gets his brakes fixed

Ok guys a week to go, lets see if we cant get a few more, is going to be a top weekend. Matt
