We would just like to say a huge thank you to everyone for making us feel so welcome today and i cannot thank Marky enough for all his help and advice and sitting with us being such novices as we are, sorry if we did your head in today your a top chap. Thanks also to Gary for tugging us out i'm sorry i was stuck in the back of the truck most of the day .... big mistake bringing the crazy mad lab wont be doing that again
We didn't get many photos but we did get a couple i'll pop em up asap .... i'm sooo pleased we took off the side boards but i feel abit more ground clearance is needed for next time ooh and a set of manual hubs too me thinks
Thank you all once again your a lovely bunch of people

We didnt get stuck
Gary lobbed his winch on to slow us down
The kids send a massive thanks (They even behaved ) and my thanks to Sam and Paul because you gave me some
motivation to get mine back on the road, and off it _________________ |

Was a good day out, shame some of the lanes weren't passable but always next time
nice to meet a few new people and hope to see you out again, glad the newbies enjoyed themselves and got to see what their stock trucks can do _________________ landcruiser 80 series 4.5, 35's/33's for road, 2inch lift, discreet winch, sliders/armour, factory lockers, stainless side exit +++++ |

Clive i never noticed your lights being behind we was all just in shock as you attacked them steps on that first lane Paul said it was really nice chattin with you yesterday we have just looked at your site ... love the boat's very smart !!! lol @ Mark did i say stuck oops i should have said gary lobbed his winch at us mmm mind you i think if he had he could have done more than slowed us down in that beast of a truck aww mark your kids are lovely Damien said he lost the bit of paper or something for FB ? awww Paul said he was so glad you was in with us Mark it was like learning to drive all over again and that first lane we did felt, like being a kid again thank you sooo very very much for everything XXX ... Gary lol if i'm honest we are sooo glad stanage wasn't passable it was sooo much fun and it really did blow us away with just how much stick our stock truck can take and was also stunned at what it can really do !!! even though we had alot of driver error we did our best
Thanks again all who looked after us and set this day up xxx i must add we are going to get a CB asap for next time we couldn't stop laughing at you guys
Sam & Paul

Oops, that may have been me
Shame it went a bit pear shaped at the end, but you can't fight the weather! And at least everyone came back in one piece!

Here are some pics from the first group.
Nice to meet some new faces and some old ones...I though Steves was the oldest
The last few pics were of Chris and I revisiting the last lane of the day. We though we would have a look from the other end, we though we could maybe drive over the top of the four foot drift due to the frozen crust, but Chris only made it 70 foot when despite airing right down he sank through the top into the powder underneath, well it nearly worked After lots of digging, laying waffles to get him back on top and me winching him off we called it off _________________ Front Aussie Locker - Rear LSD - Petrol Diffs

Hi Guys made it home about midnight last nite, long day but a hugh thanks to Matski and shorty, Keef and mrs G, Tim and mrs B and pushing my rear bumper
to stop me from backing out Steve and his shotgun (cant remember your name mate ).
It was really good to meet you all as well as those in "B" team Chris, Mi Laird, Markymoan, Paul and back of the bus Sam, not forgetting anybody else whos name eludes me, like the guy I sat next to in the pub no not my son Josh the other side.
Heres a couple of pics Josh took.
StairWay From Heaven or the Decent of Hell. Either way I'm amazed I only suffered a broken rear mud flap.
Thanks again to you all

Had a great time so thanks to Keith Mat and Chris for organising it
The only real damage appears to be my side steps but hey they protected my sills! and a few more scratches to the sides.
Great to put faces to names and to meet some of the names!
Heres a selection of what my wife took
Mat driving on the concrete like snow
Keith emptying the water out!
