Land Rover Owners Club Auckland

Seven of Solihull's finest took to the roads for a Waitangi Day jaunt and we wowed the crowds at the Riverhead pub

L ~ R: Simon's IIA Skippy, Andy's Late IIA, Kurt's S3, Neil's S3, Rob's S3, John's 107 SW & Doug's S3

Graeme Williams guided us up, through, down and around, and around, the myriad of fantastic tracks at Possum Palace. Tracks for winching, tracks for trundling, tracks up to the sky,  and tracks with cow-filled mud holes (be at the meeting to hear the stories!) Simply good fun had by all (thirteen) of us.  Highlights included a Winch Challenge stage  - just for fun... Unfortunately, Ray's winch decided to give up, mid-crossing! But no problem for the team...

Getting story together very very soon...

Santa's Series 3 and the elves..

A great trip into country not much seen, on the Southern borders of Ruapehu & Waiouru. Photos and more story shortly (Horse - send me photos!) - I have to keep these articles in date order... Christmas Run being added now!

Hamish sent in this brief but succinct trip report - thanks! (photos and extras added by Neil)

Another excellent Ahuroa weekend. This year would have seen the highest number of Landies ever.

[ Friday night - early birds setting up the Land Rover Cohort Camp ]

A perfect day for this event! Blustery Westerlies with bright sunshine Auckland Council Rangers, NZFWDA, AKL 4WD Club,  LROCA  and others put on a great show for the annual beach clean up.

Peter Vahry and Van (AC Ranger) organised us into groups to look after 25km of the beach in 5km sections.

Larry and the Team at Taupo 1000 off road race 2013

As Pete would say it’s there to be done so we did it again!!!

Larry in full flight...

Well the team members were Norm, Brendan, Murray, Kayla, Laura, Sam, Kurtis and me (Glen) plus Mike Holmes (South Island).  Also can’t forget Larry The Land Rover.

We met our host Colin RR (Classic) his son Daniel (Series 1) and Alan (Disco 1) from the Rotorua Land Rover Enthusiast Club on Saturday morning.  We had 8 trucks from the club.

Commander Keith with his very own driver, Lieutenant  Penman... Eight vehicles at the Start while two America's Cup addicts made it to Motion Road, a trifle later -but just in time to have people ahead, ready to right a non-upright situation (someone has earned a special sticker!)

Scene 1: Te Rau Puriri Park, South Head, Saturday 4 May 2013 at 1pm

Much of Auckland is awash after torrential rain. Up at South Head, several brave LRs are skittering around on slippery, muddy slopes while a camp of tents is just about to leave this Earth if they don't get pegged down properly...
