Planning on doing this trip again in Aug-Sep.
Really enjoyed this trip last year and will be doing it again to get away from civilisation for 2-3 days, and do some sand driving, which is something this gauteng dont get to do much.
River trip - again!

Hi Dirk
I am sure if you take your pressure down to 0.8bar, you will kick but on the sand this time.
Is this group open or closed?

Re: River trip - again!
Wasn't the sand stuck it on a rock - was a bit ambitious and didnt have a good look before trying to get over it 
Previous group was 17/18 vehicles of which I knew only one other party, so not planning on doing that again
I will either join the Isuzu guys on their trip
( use to belong to the club with previous vehicle), or if I can arange for 5-7 vehicles we can do the trip on our own.
