Just want to get an idea of number for the trip to Sugarloaf on the 29th January. (and someone to lead it?)

For those that want to, there is an option to camp overnight at Anna Bay/Stockton and meet up with the group doing the Stockton beach trip on the Sunday. (please state if you are intending to do this)

Depends on the Jeep being ready.

Why don't you get in touch with Aliesha for trip leader help if I can't make it?

Well heathers moved her weekend around so she and the little one could do this but the cj is making some strange noises around the transfer case. It's getting looked at this week so all should be OK. It's been doing it for a little while but I'd hate to break on the trail with wife and child in tow.

How many definites do we have for sugarloaf?

If there's only one or two of us maybe we should put it off till later in feb or march and maybe do a watagans trip on the way up instead. Just a suggestion at this point. as an option.

I'm happy to lead the trip as I did go up there with ben when we joined the raymond terrace guy's, but there are a few parts where I'd need to send other's up first in case we need to winch up them as I don't have one.

Thoughts and Numbers please

I'm still keen for both days. Doesn't look like there will be many though.

Happy to be winch b**ch for the weekend.

The other thing is where to stay for the Sat night, I've only camped on the beach once and not too keen to do it again (bloody sand gets everywhere)

One Mile Beach Holiday Park at Anna Bay was suggested in the Stockton thread, might be a goer. Any other ideas?

Peter

I'll be coming, just for the day though.

TIGGER

Not looking to good for me either.

I haven't had time to get mine into a shop for them, to find the mysterious grinding nosie coming from below and I don't want to be that far from home and it break.

Another trip is being planned up there for march/april so if people can wait I know I'll be going up then.

Even if I went, I'd be heading home that night.

That being the case, is anyone interested in a play around freemans waterhole. There's plenty of tracks that need checking out for future club runs and only being an hour up the Xpressway, it's better than the 2.5 - 3 hours it'll take to get to sugarloaf, particully if I need a trailer to get home.

BenC

So does that mean the trip is off? Is there noone that will lead it?

TIGGER
24-01-05, 06:03 PM
hmm, well if this trip is off then i'm keen for a drive either way
-what is this freemans waterhole like?

So it looks like the only guys up for the sugarloaf trip are

Antz
Wiz (?)
Peter
Tigger


I'm not going to lead it considering that i have no idea where it is...

Anyone else? I need to know asap so i can plan my weekend.

Looks like this trip is jinxed, I'm a bit wobbly now will know on Wed.

Dorzun
25-01-05, 03:44 PM
It doesn't look like anyone that's going, cep't for Peter, has done the track b4.

I want to do it but as said it's just that bit too far to drive a dodgy jeep and it's miles from anywhere if it does break.

I'm still keen to get out on saturday to Freemans, or even the watagans.

Mark, maybe we could hook up in the arvo.

If you are keen for Freemans on saturday, let me know and I'll lead it. It'd be a bit of an explore day as I've only been through there once and it was getting on dark so I did not pay to much attention to side tracks, but I have GPS and the area is not too big that you'd get lost.

TIGGER
25-01-05, 04:14 PM
EDIT: i'm out for saturday now :roll: - see you at stockton

Dorzun
27-01-05, 10:16 AM
So who's up for some play at Freemans then?

If you are call me on 041 044 0988 sso we can arrange meeting place and time.

I'm thinking off heading off from my place in Hornsby about 9.30 - 10AM. It's about 45minutes up the F3 from there.

27-01-05, 11:24 AM
