Med/Hard Trip 27th June
Posted: Sat 19 Jun, 2010 8:55 pm
Ok time to go wheeling again people. my zook is about 85% sorted, drivable, not entirely roadworthy but it managed the trip last night with no major troubles and my fuel leak has abated 90% somewhat but still needs work on the filler hose.
Looking to go on a drive anywhere where there is muddy hill climbs, ruts, wet rock and general carnage. Not intentionally looking for bogholes as they wreck things but i don't doubt that this rain has filled up every hole in every track in the last few days east of Melbourne, and probably everywhere else.
if there was ever a time to have your junk working then this is it!
I'm kind of keen to go to warburton, but its seen a bit of action from the zook club lately so keen to explore other areas. I'm also happy driving around labertouche as the 3 decent tracks there have seen some good traffic and are really messed up.
I'm thinking any vehicle with 29" muddies or bigger is worth going on a crazy trip like this. depending on the crowd we can cater to the needs of the group. It also depends on how much rain we get in the next 7 days.
I can assure you though that there will be:
Muddy, slippery, skating rink type climbs and descents
Ruts, hopefully big ones
Rocks, slippery
So, at times your vehicle might be on the verge of outta control...but for us zook drivers it seems we can get away with a lot more than the big trucks.
Who's keen?!
