Few Of Us Doing a Wee Trip Up the old dunstan trail and serpentine track on the monday of labour weekend, anyone's welcome to tag along with us should be a good trip i imagine.

Thatll be a good trip, We used to always do it just before it got closed for winter. Make sure you take lots of pics for us.

Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

It was on private land and there is now a fence with no gate across the track.
Really that's a shame,was one of my favorite little spots,wonder why that was stopped
This is going back 7 or 8 years, but back then that track was getting torn up.
I was in there a couple of years a go and the track wasn't to bad,it was mainly rocky but there were some wash outs but certainly nothing to drastic The serpentine was far worse but i think there has been quite a lot of work done on the track....people had not been sticking to the track

I got stuck up there for 8 hours once many years ago..the track was really bad at the time and it started to snow..the peat bog was incredible,i had ARB lockers & Simexs to ..had to dig the spare in about 6 times ..never forget that trip ..i have a ground anchor these days ....lol..last time there it was just a nice easy trip but dry and the track had a lot of work done
