Hi Fellas.
I have been checking out the route for this trip. All the good tracks in the Brandy Hot area are now clear of fallen trees. :D
These tracks are great fun to drive.
Regards, Wayne.

Hi Fellas.
I checked out the tracks again today. Had to clear 2 trees, the best tracks are still clear of fallen trees.
If anyone can bring a chainsaw it could be useful.
Got a good days driving planned :D . Looks like being a wet week, but it won't be a problem. It is surprisingly dry for this time of the year at Daylesford.
Regards, Wayne.

Hi Wayne. I am not going to make it this year. You are welcome to borrow my chain saw if you need one. Let me know. I can drop it into you tomorrow or Friday.

I still plan on coming.
Feel a need to drive it, instead of work on it.

Hi Fellas.
Looks like the forecast wet weather didn't happen. The track conditions will be perfect, but the day will be very cold. Bring a coat.
Starting list looks good.

Josh and Ellen, are you still in?
Anyone else? It will be a fun days driving. :D
A word of warning. The speed limit between Spargo Ck and Leonards Hill on the Ballan Daylesford Rd is 80 Km and regularly enforced.
See you all Sunday morning.
