Newbie in Rodney
Hello all, I've been a lurker for some time picking up tips and hints here and there and have had a number of 4wd's Big Horn, 4 Terrano's and have now wound up with an old 94 Surf which is also my daily drive. I've always enjoyed the harshness look of 4wd's but have never been offroad until last weekend at woodhills solo for 3hrs or so, I must say I'm still suffering from an ear to ear grin haha. Loved it in short. So theres a bit of an intro and I'd sure like to tag along on a woody's shiny trip or where ever with others any time soon if your out there to get a bit more experience and gain more daring hehe. I'm getting new shocks and tyres fitted to it today to hopefully firm up the tarmac ride as she's a little sloppy on her feet there. Cheers....

Look forweard to meeting you in person and talking 4x4

Starts at 8pm but there is usually time for a pint before hand.
