Hi All
Looking through the member statistics 663 Members, 345 Rigs, 197 Rig Pics.
Are people nervious of posting there Rig Pics ?
Maybe a nice photo of some where they have been with a caption.
I think it also helps if you have the (State or area) where you come from.
Cheers
Bernie (Vic)

Steven,
On my second attempt at
Big Red I got within about 30 metres of the crest but saw that I wasn't going to make it so I swung the car to the right and found some dune vegetation to crawl over. With the rev counter hitting 6 grand we slowly but surely ground our way over the top with the sreaming engine sounding a bit like an F1-11 coming in to land. Had BFG Mud Terrains down to 15psi on a Suzuki JX 1300. This was good fun in 1987.
Cheers

Bernie...there are a lot of 'Lurking' Members....I like that word 'Lurker'...as if there is a little face peeping at you out from behind the monitor.
Remember the heated discussion a while ago about rig pics? Can't remember who posted it but it got pulled off the air in the end. It said that Memeber should stick to posting rig pics and scenery shots instead of other things.
I tend to change my ric pic every ten days or so just to give it a different look. After all the facility is there.
Cheers

Hi Bernie, just a spur of the moment thing when I was updating my pics thought I would change my name as well. Yep, I'm pleased I settled here in Vic such a great place in a small packege. The Flinders should be good and I've got a week off at Easter, heading up to explore some more of Northern
Victoria.

Hi again
I think I may have spoken to you on the UHF 15 last year not sure of the month, I was looking for some TLC members around Mt Cole area & I spoke to someone at the Pyrenees who was able to relay messages for us, could it have been you ?
Are you going to Wombat for Anzac W/E ?
Cheers

While I've been to the Pyrenees a few times I can't recall relaying messages while there. Yes I should make it to Wombat if only for one day. I seem to be working every Saturday these days.

Just do not get in our way. The heat seeking pizza is delivered at a zillion m/s and is tipped with unobtainium. River crossings! Humbug.

Gooday Bernie (Vic)
I'd love to post a pic of the troopie, but somehow the technology just gets me every time. I have taken all the advice given on this
forum, but I still can't do it!!!
Maybe one day I'll get it right!

Hi Anne
I new some one would come to your rescue, good old Mrs Al,
I still have to play alot to get the pic the right size, they usually need cropping and then sized to suit.
