[jbrad]

Hey Jose

I'm bringing my whole family along to this one specifically because it is Easter. Bring the wife and kids, and we call all do Eggs. It's got to be better than sitting at home. I'm thinking Jeep Karioke - my 16 yo daughter will love that. How embarassment! OMG. Jas

[Dieselcon]

Great idea. Will check with Natasha. Keep me in until I talk with her tomorrow. She's working late tonight. Thanks....;)

[Dieselcon]

Back in again. Nats working but we will do the easter hunt at 0500 before we leave for Richmond. see ya all there

...All, what can I say, what an ABSOLUTELY AWESOME DAY!!!! Was so wonderful to see so many of us girls on the trip this time, beautiful scenery, great people, fabulous 4 wheeling - *sighing a happy contented sigh*..... we look forward to doing it all again
Cheers Tanya

[TRBN8R]

Wow Just one of the best days out ever..... It was constant action and excitement. It went exceptionally well other than a bit of a mishap with Adrian's Jeep. Thanks David for organizing the trip and welcome to the club, Thanks Wolfe for leading us to all that fun........

Cheers
Mani

[aussiejk]

Yeah thank you all for a great day I had a ball it was good to meet you all thanks to wolfe for leading us around it was great, Hope Adrian gets his jeep sorted ok.. thanks all again hope to do it all again soon

[Wolfe]

Thanks guys, It was a lot of fun, i'll have to get going on the trip report quicksmart. Can the people with cameras start posting please :)

[Hunno]

Very jealous, beats sitting on the side of the F3 with a #*@% gear box.

[Hunty]

Jax & I had a great day out wheelin
Probably the best day wheelin ever, great trails & good company,
Thanx Dave for Posting up the trip and Wolfe for great trip leading.

I think we set a new record, every vehicle had a beautiful seat cover! - great to see the girls out playing in Jeep style!

The trails were great - plenty of challenges and fun!

Everyone took home a similar vehicle to the one they left in with the exception of Adrian. Just after Monstering Oh S#it Rock ( Great driving mate - you have Titanium man bits!) - made some improvements to his vehicles off road fuel economy - he lightened his front axel by removing the drivers side uni, whilst climbing Oh S#it Rock, enabling him to use 2wd and thus getting better economy than the rest of use!

We had lunch in a very beautiful place "Lost city" - if you havent been there then get off your wallet and go and see one of the most beautiful places near Sydney.

I think we need to raffle a decent air compressor at the next meeting! - pretty sure Mani will win it as he tends to win all the club raffles LoL - any way he could sure use one! - a gerbil with pneumonia could have blown up Mani's tyres faster than his asthmatic TJM compressor! LoL

I need to buy a ratchet spanner that will fit over the 3 bolts that secure the JK Hub and bearing - stupid Jeep funny shaped Torx D'oh - I spent $250 on a complete torx set when I bought my first TJ and of course none of them fitted Adrians front hub - luckily I had just bought a set of "Multi fit sockets" that enabled me to liberate Adrians front uni! or what was keft of it LoL - so if anyone knows where I can buy one please post up.

I was amazed to see Rob & Tanyas heap eating up the trails! - great driving Rob especially when you take into account the fact that you were driving on tyres with about as much grip as 4 day old dunkin donuts LoL

I really liked Daves heap - it looks sweet / mean - especially the way Dave has set up his wheels! btw Great driving Dave, I will post up the video of you monstering the steep rut ASAP.

Hey Jason! great drive yesterday - you were working the hardest by far, congrats also for getting the whole family out (inc a teenage daughter!)

We had all just successfully climbed a very steep & difficult hill, and were standing around at the top looking down like shags on a rock expounding the goodness that is Jeep! and making smart@ss comments (Ok I was ) etc as to the difficulty of the challenge and how pathetic the poo's and landloozers were that took the chicken track! just pryer to our awesome ascent! when 2 nice jeeps and a zook arrived at the bottom of the trail, did we drive on, NO! we hung around to see them ascend! or at least try to - it appeared that they were on road tyres & pressures with sway bars locked in, I was impressed with the driving ability of the guy in the white Jeep - he had it on 3 wheels & then 2 before bailing to the chicken track halfway up, the zook took the chicken and then the guy driving the blk 4dr JK assaulted the trail "Momentum Mani" style and totally ate it up! good job!
- Stuart "Wolfe" handed out some Sydney Jeep club propaganda so I hope these guys will join the club one day soon!

Hey Wolfe! - as you were last to arrive at Maccas (& after the designated departure time LoL) I guess you get to write the trip report, so I hope you find the above rave useful. - Thanx Wolfe for taking us all to so many excellent trails!

I guess I should get some ZZZzzz's as its past 3am
cheers Hunty

Caught again playing Where's Wolfe?!!!!!

[Wolfe]

yep but this time behind the car and didn't realize Tanya and Rob were at bottom of hill looking up with video playing

[aussiejk]

yeah got caught by dash cam... LOL that section looked easy from the bottom but it was a rather large step, thank god no one with shorties tried that would have ended up in disaster...

P.S Did anyone get any pics..

[Rob&Tanya]

Most of my pics are too large to upload - will try and shrink them and then post more

[aussiejk]

Pic's not working.

[Hunno]

Caught again playing Where's Wolfe?!!!!!

When you censor the footage at least make it a large black spot so Wolfe can tell BIG stories.LOL

[stevet]

Anyone get a "Where's Wolfe" pic for the mag.:confused:...:D.......:)....... Seem's to have been another good day wasted...:(.........................:)..

[Maggie]

Any other pics this really doesn't do it justice

[Rob&Tanya]

No, you're right.... you haven't "gone" behind the Jeep yet .... all ours are from the bottom, hopefully Jeanine or one of the others has some taken from the top. :)

[Wolfe]

No, you're right.... you haven't "gone" behind the Jeep yet .... all ours are from the bottom, hopefully Jeanine or one of the others has some taken from the top. :)

I hope you don't post those ones

[Rob&Tanya]

Its to try and make it a bit easier on mobile devices etc, it's not an issue for the server etc but more than 10 pics is a real bugger if you open it up with a mobile device or a slower connection. Ideally if you need to put up a heap of pics use a smaller size and have a link to the album :)

Try opening this thread on your mobile device and you'll see what I mean ;)

Cheers
