Wink Trip Ideas

If any members have ideas for day trips bring them forward...so we can run some trips for you....

Set yourself up with maps of an area you wish to look at...check out as much as you can about the area and the tracks.

Look at travel time to get there and give yourself time ....so it can go on the trip notices so people have a chance to book in...

This will give time for trip leaders...to plan ahead so that you have a trip leader to run it for you.

Be aware of closed tracks that don't open till Cup weekend in some areas..

How hard you wish to rate "C" would be the first choice...and about 6 to 8 car's

Received my brand new JK today. Dying to get it dirty before Christmas. How about the following 2 trips which were run about a year ago.

Cobaw - http://www.4x4earth.com.au/4wdtracks/trails/cobaw-%11-mjoc-trip-sep-%2707/

Toolangi - http://www.4x4earth.com.au/4wdtracks/trails/toolangi-%11-mjoc-trip-oct-%2707/

C grade please, but with a few challenging bits so I can try my locker.

I will be checking out Eildon area after the tracks have opened up again. It becomes too frustrating trying to get up a decent trip when so many tracks are closed. So that should be around the start of November.
Sorry but you will have to wait.

There are heaps of good areas and tracks that can be used NOW.
Locations such as Toolangi and Cobaw have minimal closures. Plenty of fun to be had for all.
No need to wait for opening of track closures.
