okay who is keen to spend a day playing in the mud in Rotovegas.

Cost per vehicle is $40 for the day.[thats entry fee to the park].

have spoken with Pete, who is looking to close the 4x4 park in late May due to lack of interest. :shock:

anyway so we need to move fast, as to a date hoe does Sunday May 6th suit?

need to know numbers ASAP.

do we need to make this an 'offical' ORE day out or treat it as a group of mates just having some fun in the mud???

I'm deffinatly in unless I break something between now and then.

Sam Merrin (and Dad or a mate will probably be comming along as well)

Is there some where that we can leave a tow vehicle?

brianr70 · Post by **brianr70** » Thu Apr 19, 2007 4:51 pm

just where abouts is this pete's place is it on te puke side of rotovegas or taupo side trying to get my surf ready for it

Hi Craig, park is located in Paradise Valley, off Fairy Springs Road or there abouts, from your location would be easier to thru the Pongakawa way to vegas.

xj · Post by xj » Mon Apr 30, 2007 6:30 am

my status will have to be a "maybe".

Have to go to Auckland on either sat or sun to pick up another Jeep. Just bought a 97 Renegade (for my lovely wife no less!) And ive also got springs to fit and new rims to go onto the XJ. If i can get it all sorted by Saturday, and the budget allows the coin to shoot to vegas then im there. (In the Renegade of course.... gotta thrash the titis off it before her indoors get her mitts on it)

Ill keep ya posted

nzhunter · Post by **nzhunter** » Wed May 02, 2007 6:49 pm

Hey I'm going to have to pike. I broke a CV and have a few other broken things from last weekend and still haven't got the surf home from Te Kuiti. Will try my best to get it done but doubt I will have it all fixed. Will hopefully catch a ride with safari_mulisha.

Cheers,
Dan
