If the Coaster can get there We're in. It'd be nice to play in the snow. And
test out that insulation.
Just keep the kilometers down cause the price of fuel is ridiculous. hahhaha.

Gooday x-member diamond,
I would love to join you, but I can't make it until September, not sure that there will be too much snow around then....lol
Have fun anyway and we will catch up when I return from the 4wdadventureoz experience.
Cheers

How about the Last weekend of July ---> 31st?
Mt Skene is good, but there isnt much else up there... but then again, we must try for the 4th time to get Jim to the hut! LMAO
Up around Lake Mountain I hear that there are some real kewl
places but havent really done the tracks round there....
Also round Mt Useful is another place with some good tracks which doesnt really have much snow, but also depends on the time of yr..
Also some other areas round Warberton I think it was, went with Bazzle for a run up there last yr. which was driving not just play...
probably none of these would suit the coaster.. I can guarentee Mt Skene wont be LMAO...

Would be great to meet some members and get away for a weekend. Weekends are bit scarce for me right now, but if the trip date falls right I'd be in.

New idea mag as well John :)
No need to be
cold anywhere with the right gear. Might be a bit uncomfortable if there a flamin blizzard though. I guess those gas canisters would be a dead loss in those temps.

Oh I'm interested.
I need a double bed size.
Since I read your last post I did a Google
search and buy crikey there is such a product.
I do need a double bed size though.
Are they available?
The other idea I had was an inverter and a regular elec blanket. I simply do not know how to work out if the battery can handle it.
I found some rugs pulling 7 amps. Is that too much?
