was talking to him this arvo and he was thinking about it

but he is a big girls blouse and we can probably guarantee he wont turn up

worried about his H/Ts and his centre diff and all the other girly excuses he can come up with.

at least uncle bobs going and without the front either

Hi All

Yes the rally is still on tomorrow (Sunday 14 June).

We went over the track today and everything is okay.

There are markings on the shingle area to show the way for those who need it.

There will be mud in some areas and people are welcome to play in the mud.

Most of the beaches are off limits as they are protected because of the plants and birdlife.

On the off chance that it is postponed till the following weekend I will put it on Newstalkzb and The Breeze by 7am and I will email.

Feel free to contact me if you are unsure.

What a good day, if you want to give feedback please do so in a constructive way and remember this is the first time that it has been run by Mudy1 and his crew.

On that note I will be talking with him and assisting next time if they need it.

As for the photo's, mine are here.

Was great to met a couple of new people and to catch up with some that I haven't seen for a while.

Thanks Mudy1 for a great day!

I guessed that, and gave it! LOL


They need a wee bit of guidance, not much, and I could point at the guy to give it, but he gets bigheaded at that so will send it privately. What more can I say, that I would be into the next one like a shot? we had fun and isnt that what its all about??

Had a great time, I am sure the Jeep used quite a bit more than $18.69 in fuel, about a third of a tank so $30 - 40. But an excellent day, the weather cleared nicely and the views from along that bit of coastline was great.

I will also be queueing for next years trip, that was my first time along that bit of coastline, and I can see how quickly some of that track must change with the rains down those shingle fans.

Cheers guys, and have a great week.

A good day out and even had lunch cooked for me :mrgreen:

Got a slight shimmy in the steering at around 50kph so will have to have a wee look at that sometime?
