So we've got

Myself and Greg in shotgun
Mika
Jonno

Any other takers?

Jonno, where do you want to unload? Would it be easier to meet there?


Cheers

I'd be happy to meet at the corner of Toorango Rd (where you's met for day 2? of AT).

[lbzook]

That's what I was thinking too, I'm pretty sure that's where jonno will be unloading anyway, saves us from meeting then stopping again 5 mins later.

True Suzuki Club style! Major engine and gearbox convention, and first road test is less than 24 hours before leading a trip!

[Greg]

What time are we due to set off leigh?

I'll pick up some food in yarra junction, then meet up with you at torango rd if that suits? Or I can leave my car in yarra junction?

[lbzook]

Wanting to meet at 9am and leave soon after, just thought it might be easier to just meet there as we all know where it is, and jonno needs to unload and leave his trailer somewhere too. We can also air down there too I suppose

[Greg]

Yep no prob.

8:30 bakery run in yarra junction, ready to leave torango at 9am.

What a full day that was!!

Myself, Greg, Mika and Jonno + passenger (can't remember her name! Sorry!) met up around 9 in Gladysdale.
We headed off up Ellis track, which was sadly very drivable, no recoveries or anything that was a real big challenge.
Then we headed over to ledge track, then over to the bottom of Justice where we stopped for some lunch.
After lunch, and permanently locking a viscous hub that wasn't working Jonno and I headed up Justice to Cumming Spur, which was a whole lot of awesome! And Mika drove around and met us at the top.
Then it was off down Cemetery, which has had a few trees strategically placed to block the "bad" bits of track.
The we headed back up Cemetery, down Justice, over Brittania range and back to Tarrango Rd where we started from.

Big cheers to Greg, Mika and Jonno for persisting and helping out with a strange and mysterious running issue I developed at the top of Ellis and was there on and off all day.

Had a great day, although it was comparatively easy due to how dry all the tracks where, it suited the purpose of giving my engine a good shakedown.



Cheers

[Greg]

Yep - great day out leigh.

I believe Prue was Jonno's guest. We need to get the video of your wheelstand from her.
