Thread: Fess up Aaron 2

My boss heard her tell everyone "Ive given up on Aaron" ( ) very profesional I know.

On top of that, she will see my car tonight filthy from my Mt Mee/Kenilworth/Sunday creek rd expedition yesturday, which she will be cut because she seems to think she owns me.

Just on the Mt Mee thing, and a bit off topic. I hope no one with HT Tyres is planning a trip there tomorrow. A grader has been through the tracks and laid rubble down and they aren't exactly smooth river rocks. Id wait a couple of weeks till they get knocked over and pushed into the ground.

Edit - Names not Michelle

Aaron,

I assume just the main tracks? or the breaks as well?

Cheers.

So it would be a pretty harsh ride if you went up there?

I went down A break and did tracks at the end of that only. Its not a real issue as the grading had stopped as soon any 4wd'ing took place. But like I said, they're sharp as buggery. I prefer the first part graded, as I can high range through all the boring bits.

While I have your attention, have you done this hill? It is a quick left after Dianas Bath rd, then a drop of of about 1.5 meters into a creek (with a chick track that is pretty much equal to that of the first one) cross the shallow creek a few fairly steep accents, then this one? Know what one Im talking about? I think its may be in one of your latest vids.

Not when you air down. But with D3's with Low profile tyres go through, Id imagine some rim damage.

Yep, know the one. Only been up there once when the creek entry was pretty tame. The problem with that route on the trips I've lead is that going up from Diana's bath rd end the Freelanders won't cope with the the long slow climb up the hill, and coming the other way I think the sharp climb out of the creek would be an issue for them as well.

We're we've been a few times is across the top of the hill (N to S).

I had it in mind that the next time I lead a trip I'd org a few shovels (for the creek, just in case) and lead the group down from the top.

I was surprised how easy the exit was from the creek. I think because the rear wheels are sitting on hard river stones. Deff a situation where bridging ladders would help to cut down the angle. If you do go back, watch for the roof scrapping on the tree branch on the smaller (easier exit IMO) exit. It was about 2 cm's away from touching my alpine window... Probably wouldnt be an issue with cars with a better turning circle. I might go back there next week if I get a chance.
