Re: 4x4 DAY TRIP!!!
Yep, I havn`t done a trail for a while....starting to get twitchy
So....any suggestions as to where we`re going, and when?
To get the ball rolling, I`ve been thinking of the following (mostly because I havn`t driven them yet)
1. Klein Tafelberg (Redelinghuys)
2. Jakkalskloof (Redelinghuys / Picketberg)
3. Glen Oakes (Caledon)
Dates?? I`ll vote for Sat 15 August

Which time are you talking about!!! ???
If you never get stuck you`re not trying hard enough!! Plus, winches are there to be used, and need a little excercise once in a while
15th at Glen Oakes sounds good!!
Where are all the other hands??

Cool by me, but I guess this is G-Mans thread....Pieter du Toit wrote:NO NO NO - not the 15th please!!!

Pieter suggest a date that suits you, the 15th was just a suggestion to get things rolling.
I know we`ve got some overseas guests arriving sometime after the 15th, but don`t know the exact date...will have to check with SWAMBO.
Where are all the other WC Patrollers???

Re: 4x4 DAY TRIP!!!
Any weekend date after the 15th will suit me - have no other commitments as yet. I am open to any other suggestions - but like you said it is G-Man's thread...
Let's see if there are other takers as well
