the 23rd works best for me, I have the 'Topless Run' to stockton on the 9th, and the SMH half Marathon on the 17th.

I'd be interested - BUT do I need to be in the same Jeep (as I did the last cleanup in)?

stevet

No, same Jeep not required. The driver/passangers are the ones that count.

Wooders

:(Bummer the last Menai cleanup day was cancelled, was waiting for another day out to join the club. Anyway, locals been going out there for decades, day and night regardless. Bikes, horses, 4WD's, walking, even shooting up to 25 years ago.

Hi CraigB,
The next clean-up is on Sunday 31/05/09 or Wednesday 03/06/09, see you at either one or both :).
Times/attitudes do change, even for locals over time. Walkers are not usually the hassle, have not seen a horse for several years, bikes are becoming less frequent, but the dumpers continue and the greenies rage so we attempt to do our best to keep the place open for 4wding use, not many places left to do it "legally" so on so on etc....

Any Sunday is good. May be able to jag a weekday off-work. Doubt it, so wont promise.

Damn, I like it when it's slippery.

Unfortunately I have to bow out guys, I tried to get my sister to move the time of the Christening be she wouldn't have it. I was really looking forward to a night run but lock me in for the next one.

Looking forward to the pics.

Maggie
20-05-09, 09:38 PM
That turned into a drama and we need Scott and everybody else who can make it, to attend the Expo on Sunday. I don't want to be there on my own !!!! ??? ???

I'll still be there Maggie! Even trying to talk Kay into coming along for part of the day. Steve knows I'm still 'sitting out' night drives till the XJ is fully repaired :)

I would hate to imagine that Watto's trail after a bit of rain up there, I would think a winch would be a requirement for any vehicle trying to get up those rocks!

PureCaboose

Such as thing as Jeep god or a virgin?

If we go, I am bringing my official photographer with me so we could have some good shots (assuming it is still on).
