Jason, any idea which tracks you will be doing on the day? Just wondering if you will be doing the A grade trail with the big steps?

TIGGER
03-05-05, 10:21 AM
believe it or not i've never been to appin, which is why i was hoping someone like Wiz would lead it.

but orrr is unlocked on 33's so i don't think we'll be doing A grade stuff unless there is a way around for others...

I'd like to..

At this stage I'll be picking my Jeep up from Canberra on Friday morning. If all goes well, and I get the harnesses installed and cage painted on Friday as well, I'll come along for a play. We'll see how long things end up taking.

sounds good the A grade section is mainly 2 or 3 big steps, but they are definetly big 4-5ft. But generally there is ways around most of the hard stuff

Nah they are 100ft. If there is one unlocked rig then the A grade trail isnt too bad. You'll just have to pull/winch them up the last climb if they dont get lucky. Should be able to drive everything else unlocked.

Jase,

any chance you could burn them and post them to me.

The ones I grab from the web reproduce pretty crappy sometimes and it'll also save me having to trawl through alll of em.

BTW, got the new poota and have a DVD of the freemans trip for you also.

Need to also call you bout mag printing.
