Land Rover Owners Club Auckland

A perfect-picture day for 21 Land Rovers to have good fun on the Annual Jonkers Trial Day!  Stunning scenery and brilliant summer weather.

Lots of seemingly easy sections with extra twists for the unwary... But a load of fun nevertheless!

This in from Nic Church: Ray and I decided a recce was overdue. We'll organise a Club trip soon -  coming up in April, details to come.

I made a couple of calls to find some other brave souls and the recce was on. We left after lunch on Saturday arriving down there at 3pm. The track has seen a fair number of trucks this season which has made it a lot more fun!

Congratulations to Phil & Sarah Billings recently married on Waiheke. We do notice that the photo supplied shows two Land Rovers rather than two people

Tim & Paula helped out with transportation (and with a wonky handbrake on the 110!)

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.

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.
