Default SJC: Appin 14th August

Back by popular demand, we have another trip to Appin. This time on Saturday 14th August. Meeting point will be Cambelltown KFC carpark, right next to Campbelltown Maccas.

Note: Don't confuse Campbelltown Maccas with Woodbine Maccas. The one we're meeting at is near the Campbelltown Catholic Club.

For those of you who haven't been, Appin is a B+ trail and is great fun! Minimum spec for vehicles is 33" tyres, 3" lift and recovery points are a must have.

Buddha, are we going to see you and the other Canberra guys up for this one?

Let me know who's interested.

if you're waiting at the Macca's with a Sizzler next door ...
you're at the wrong one ....

Might have to be Dec or Jan for the next Appin trip I lead Mark. I want to keep Sept fairly quiet to recover from Cal's and get ready for Jambo and the comps.

The track is definately not suitable for stock vehicles. There are a number of areas where you need a fair bit of clearance to get through.

Take a look at the pics from the last trip and you can make the call as to what you think.

I'll put you down as coming unless you change your mind.

I had 4 inches lift and 33's on the last trip there. Not saying i am the best driver in thw world, far far from it, but i am not that bad and i struggled bigtime. Got pulled up two big obsticles. Never had so much trouble on a track ever before. I have an auto too which makes it supposedly easy for climbing stuff. Oh and i hot my sill with 4 inches and 33's

Yep, there are a few nice C grade trails through the area as well. If we get time after this trip, I might map some of them out on the GPS.
