Bonz says it gets a bit rough then it gets a bit rougher then it really gets rough - and someone says "I'm in trouble "
and so goes our fun drive for the 2013 Pyrennies get together.
Well it really was a sucessful weekend with lots of cars and a group from S.A. attending and the forecast miserable weather
left the scene early and we all had a great trip.
Thanks to Bonz and everyone else involved in its operation.
Below - setting up for evening meal.
Getting set up for Main meal
Only dark point was when I convinced my brother to register on Exploroz and come along for the first time
and he won the biggest share of the prizes while I got nowhere, he was even joint winner of the life
membership
which apparently can't be joint so a coin toss up was organized which he won as
well over long deserving George.
Either by good luck or careful driving I managed to aviod any dents this time.
I'm sure there are some better pics but these came from our car recorder.
Don't remember name of this track but it had a bad section which cost a blue patrol a door and sill and made the white car in the second picture think about lowering its centre of gravity.
Identity withheld due to potential embrassment.
Can you see the dent in the blue car
done Balancing act.
Balancing Act Well done

Love the communal dinner table! Looks like a great turnout. Think we've solved the problem with the "winners" of the Lifetime Members ;).... Adele is in contact with Bonz on that matter. Great pics and story so far, I do hope there is more told in a forthcoming blog.
Well done on organising a very popular turnout.

Hi Michelle
Sounds good - just to be clear Bonz did all the hard work.
The trip I lead got confused in an unsignposted tree logging area and then wound its way via a lovely drive called Landsborough ridge track and then proceeded onto a beautiful reception place for coffees only to find it abnormally closed , but it all happily ever after at Avoca.
Still at least I didn't get any dents till this morning at the local supermarket
carpark.

Great weekend of driving in NORMAL Victorian weather :-) Sorry I was a little busy with our mob to catch up Robin but you look like you had an interesting drive. I have posted a few pictures in another post of our escapades. Hope to catch up next time. It was good to see Bonz, Lucy and
John R and partners who I hadn't seen in ages.
It is certainly a great venue. We did a trip over there last year and found a few good tracks.
Job
well done Bonz and helpers.
