Here are some pics from last Saturdays afternoon drive in the Wombat State Forest south of Gisbourne.
The tracks were fairly dry with several bogholes to be negotiated. Life was made interesting for both Michael and Ross as both suffered mechanical problems and were reduced to rear wheel drive only :(
Lloyd had the LJ80 out for a run and came within a bees d... of rolling it :o after failing to make a climb on the first attempt. Sooo glad he didn't, that's one vehicle you wouldn't want to damage, not to mention potential damage to the occupants. (wonder if Mary's going to accompany Lloyd on his next trip).
Thanks Michael for organising the day.

I'd like to thank Michael and Steve for the impromptu tech night on the right way(and wrong way :) ) to change over a drive shaft yoke.
