Post by Vaughn Ashford »

Hello all,
Peter Claasen at RdW has asked me for the list of names of drivers attending the weekend, for your ‘proof of driving’ certificates. Please confirm/send your names asap – required latest Friday 10h00.
PS there are now 5 vehicle spaces available, as some other people pulled out. So, if you did not make it last weekend, now is your opportunity to bring the family for a great weekend away.

Kind regards
Vaughn

Hello all,
Just a reminder that Rust de Winter was where farmers took their livestock in winter, as the weather is very mild.
The track can be spicy. The camping is BYO everything, rustic.
See more info below.
If you want to join us, let me know – still 4 vehicle spaces left……

Kind regards
Vaughn

Hi Vaughan


Please brief the drivers before the trip. For sum of the D/cabs, some of the obstacles coul;d damage the vehicle. On our trip we built roads so as to assit. Thye should still be OK. Other wise enjoy and please take more than one bag of wood per car. It will be very cold at the overnight stop.
