It is probably me, but it does allow me to upload photo images.
But here are a select few

Whats the reason for photoshopping out the number plates?
Last time I checked we weren't doing anything illegal...

Some people don't like to have number plates showing.
Not just for legal reasons, but theft, privacy etc.
So its safer for me to edit them all out,
saves asking everyone individually.

Yeah I know.

I swirled them so they can not been seen unless you have special software.
But what is funny, some commercial magazines do not worry about number plates, they leave them clearly visible.

What a great day! Learnt heaps & am starting to see what zooks are really capable of in testing conditions. Top job by Darryl in leading the trip with advice & particularly with the guidance of Brads GV through the tough bits. Thanks for the company boys!! Fishing talk on the agenda also. Cheers Richard :D :D

Great day had by all.
Had 3 sierras 2 vitara’s a GV and jeep.
Still amazed by how far a stock vehicle goes when you’re prepared to give it a go. :twisted:
The sierra still even had the front sway bar on. I had to look twice to work out what it was. ;)
I would definitely run this trip again and try the fence line and steep track in the other direction. May rate it at medium+ with some hard lines available.
Cockpit had an interesting set of moguls on the first ascent. A little more rain and most would get some challenging lines before seasons close.
Thanks again to everyone who attended.
Daryl

Thanks Daryl for a well run trip. I think we rolled out a few minutes before 9, had lunch at midday and then, for two of us at least, finished at 4 o'clock. Had a nice combination of mud and rocks and ups and downs.

As with everyone else there on the day, I'm amazed at what a stock GV can get through. Even Marty's Vit and Richard's Sierra were pretty much standard apart from mud tyres and I don't think either was truly stuck at any stage.

I'm missing a shackle from the day, silver with a blue pin, if someone's got it could they bring it to the next meeting.
