Oh, and is this a suzuki only play? its in the suzuki section. I suggest you either a) start new thread in planning a trip, b) Ask mike to move this thread. Ir, if its for suzukis only ignore everything I just said and ill uninvite myself.

Whos bringing the BBQ?

This trip is ON, 10am tomorrow (Sunday) at the gate onwards, if you get lost you can ring me on 027 479 2417 or PRS ch 10, I'll be in the Rugger or the Shiny Red Grand Vitara.

$2 per truck (this covers some beer for Henry which helps maintain our access). BYO Meat (ie sausages and or steak).... I will bring some bread and sauce

very quick drivers briefing at 10.10, basically to say keep away from the moto-x tracks at the top and away from the homestead down the bottom, look out for kids and if you go off somewhere make sure someone is with you in case you get stuck etc

we may be able to go in other areas around there.

Ramp will be there hopefully.....if you need instructions to get there ring me...

PS was anyone up there recently in a pajero? with ORE stickers?, if so can you pls PM me.

Notice the Motorway on the left of the picture. This is out by porirua. Type frances brown ave into smaps.co.nz if you want more detail.

Long, just turn up, you can reverse out of most things, and if you're really stuck, you can climb under and hoop a strop around something solid. I.e your rear axle.

Im not sure if I'll be able to make it tommorow. Hopefully I will be there, even if for a short amount of time. Jerry, is the gate going to remain unlocked?
