I've been meaning to get out there to try scout some new trails :wink: ...
starting to get bored of the usual run :roll:
ALSO , depends what day over the w/end i pull apart the heep :?
so Wiz was that a yes or a no or a maybe? :lol:
i'll be kee for a run this weekend, hopefully get my arb compressor fixed by then so i got the lockers running
Jason, any idea which tracks you will be doing on the day? Just wondering if you will be doing the A grade trail with the big steps?
believe it or not i've never been to appin, which is why i was hoping someone like Wiz would lead it.
but orrr is unlocked on 33's so i don't think we'll be doing A grade stuff unless there is a way around for others...
I'd like to..
At this stage I'll be picking my Jeep up from Canberra on Friday morning. If all goes well, and I get the harnesses installed and cage painted on Friday as well, I'll come along for a play. We'll see how long things end up taking.
sounds good the A grade section is mainly 2 or 3 big steps, but they are definetly big 4-5ft. But generally there is ways around most of the hard stuff
so Wiz was that a yes or a no or a maybe? :lol:
that is correct :wink:
BTW ... the ledges aren't that big

Nah they are 100ft. If there is one unlocked rig then the A grade trail isnt too bad. You'll just have to pull/winch them up the last climb if they dont get lucky. Should be able to drive everything else unlocked.
I heard there were 800m flat vertical walls that needed to be scaled? :roll:

Them's a lot of pics Jase :)
Looks like you blokes had some fun!
ummmm pavlo - look 2 posts up, the pics are on that link
yeah saw em wasnt showing up earlier even when i refreshed the screen
Jase,
any chance you could burn them and post them to me.
The ones I grab from the web reproduce pretty crappy sometimes and it'll also save me having to trawl through alll of em.
BTW, got the new poota and have a DVD of the freemans trip for you also.
Need to also call you bout mag printing.
no probs brad.
where do you want me to mail it?
anyone else end up getting some pics?
I noticed a few pics went up in Wiz's gallery too.
yep just seen em 2. wonder where the video footage is floating around?
was a good day out, thank god the rain held up for us.
my pics are on below link, got some good vid footage too.
