Waipara River Monday???

philux · Post by **philux** » Sat Jun 02, 2007 1:31 pm

Me and kaney are thinking we will go down the waipara river from state highway 1 out to the beech, thinking will have lunch some where along the line, meeting at the belfast pub (by the motorway ) at 10am leaving there 10:15 - 10:20. If any one is keen feel more than welcome. Oh, towhooks are a must

I might be able to make it.....faint possibility though i'm doing a hilux hi-steer conversion on Dads double cab, it's going good so might have the day off

If I don't make it.....remember to keep off the horseshoe area it's private property and causing a few concerns for the farmer, stick to the riverbed in that area, might see you Monday :mrgreen:

I had to clean my truck from my westcoast adventures (yes, for real, I couldnt take all that mud into an east coast river)

Also had to fix my hot water system from leaking :-(

Yeah was a good trip even though I was only being a passenger. Great place to play around although more mud would be nice.

Had a awesome day thanks guys. Sorry PR but had to rub salt in the wound on this one.

the only bad thing about that hole was when I opened the door to let the water out my smokes went down the river :lol:
