wanting to organise a day out on private land in cantabury

[damon]

hey fellas been watchin this site regulary for a while and every day skidn around the hills in either a hilux or a tractor and lovn it anyway my old boss who had been around the clock once already was an awsome driver and i learnt alot about the boundrys of standard vehicle from him i kid you not he would take the hilux places some of you guys wouldnt dream of taking your modified trucks no offence but the man could drive and as for the tractor well now thats a different story im amazed were you can go and even turn around on some seriously steep country so as i gain confidence and start pushin my limits i begin looking at places on the farm i think i could take a truck so again had a thought now my old boss has moved on (gone to th uk) if someone with good driving skills would like to come out and have a look around and help me organise a challenging day for some ore members to come have some fun now i would like some nominees put forward it will be a summertime event so a bit of time but im after someone who is seriously into going places but not after rip shit n bust so if you no someone in the area put there name forward and we can go from there if done right this could be a very challanging day for some and a easy drive around for others who arnt so confident the farm is 7000acres of hill so plenty of places to go cheers loking forward to any replys thanks Damon

hi damo, long time. you still up Christchurch way or down south ? if Christchurch I would be a starter.

[damon]

yea sorry farm is located in springfeild i joined on here a couple of years ago when i was in geraldine but never changed my profile. some of the places i want to try are pretty steep but i think doable for some but nt all vehicles.

[IcedJohnno]

Yeah I could be keen too.
I've got to drop the wee trials car Austin Seven back to my sisters place in Springfield, so keen to have a shake down with that as well.

For me it depends on when you do this. Later is better, as I have a workshop to change around at home, so I can get a couple of big machine tools up from near Alex and into it.

What Station are you on?

[damon]

id be keen to do this near xmas holidays if it suits, as people will have time off i hope. the missus has to work so i wont be going far except to the lake fishing or out the back for a pig were on annavale station not the biggest place to drive around but plenty places to drive.
