I have GPX maps of a number of tracks out from Rydal if anyone needs them.

Please put me down as a 'quite possible' to help out with the clean up as I will most probably be spending valentines evening in Bathurst getting drunk & watching Dexter with an accomplice

*edit* Of course I wouldn't be meeting up @ Richmond maccas, but will hook around to the showground on the way hehe

[dobbo56]

I've got to pull out, too much on at home at the moment. Sorry Chaps, Doggy.....

[redrubi]

Do we have a wet weather plan???

[DanD]

Whats the plan in general actually? As mentioned, I will be coming from Bathurst that morning - meet you @ Rydal showground at about 9am? I'm not able to have fun on the trails (self & financially imposed 'no fun things for a while') but want to help out with the clean up

[Wooders]

Hi Dan, yes the plan is to pull the old tyres out of the area we used as a test track and take them to a local tip. Do you know the area in question? If so we'll see you there around 9:00.
After the clean up we'll probably do an easy run out towards Mt Walker depending on weather conditions.
I'm unsure as to the number of tyres but will be taking a trailer to cart the em to the tip

Sounds good, I'll hang out by the coal pit if I get there before 9am - otherwise, i'll look for all of the other jeeps in the showgrounds :D

[Wooders]

Yup sure it is. ;)

All attendees please bring work gloves, sturdy shoes and preferably long pants in case of spiders or snakes

Does anyone remember the address of the local tip?

[uncaged123]

Sorry I can't make it, my partner in hospital and need support at present.

[Rob.79]

I'm in, see you tomorrow, did someone check to see if the waste site accepts waste tyres? And how many they will take? Oh, and how much they charge? http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/askenvironmentlineapp/question.aspx?qaId=AEL-105

[Wolfe]

As far as I know the transfer station I was planning to use is free

[Rob.79]

They may take then all without issue, but I think they would only take a few tyres, they might accept half a dozen, but tyre disposal is costly, and they would have every farmer, tyre shop and garage in the area dumping tyres? I'm not sure how much my company pays, we have a contract with our tyre supplier, they collect the used ones, for recycling, retreads etc. I'm guessing it could be around a few dollars per tyre? Being 'in the trade' Wooders may know?

Local waste site charges, eg. http://m.kimbriki.com/fees-charges-domestic-non-resident.html. Max 5 tyres @ $10 each?

To the best of my knowledge "Kimbriki" is at Terry Hills, which is a long way from Rydal.

[Hunno]

It's not a problem, there is a free one. We used for Jambo.

[redrubi]

Sorry Guys, I'm out!

Back not playing the game:distress:! Aggravated it at work Tuesday and was hoping it would be better by now! IT's NOT:grumpy:

Cheers

Fire and petrol can make things go away :hopelessness:

[Wolfe]

I'm thinking if we can explain to council that we are cleaning (greening) an area we may be able to dump for free. This however would require postponing the cleanup till I can find out. Also weather isn't the best. Please let me know tonight.

Apologies peoples, I'm not able to make it tomorrow :(

[Maggie]

Are we going or is it off?

[Wolfe]

Rob And Handbrake please let me know you've read this, as due to weather and dumping costs etc the Rydal run will be postoned.

[Rob.79]

Yes Wolfe I have just read this, not a problem, we could have still gone and had a tidy up? If the mess is bad? Clear the track, make a big neat pile of tyres? Sorry Bear, 'kimbriki' was just an example, I couldn't find any info on the waste site near Rydal, General waste/rubbish is usually free and easy to dispose of, Tyres are a pain!
