Land Rover Owners Club Auckland

Wow! This run produced emails such as this from Kyle:  "I think that was just about the best trip I have been on so far, that was a really fun day and all the damage I managed to do was get a punture and lose a little bit more paint so I consider that pretty lucky.  Hopefully Steve your diff is not to expensive.  Thanks Ivan again for organising the trip and thanks Shaun and Steve for company.  I hope we get to do that track again soon with a few more members from our club."

Ivan and others gave us good account of this trip - not least being Kyle's brake 'issue' which led to some moderate damage to a tree on the hill he had been climbing!

A definitely delectable foodie event for our club on it's 20th  anniversary; with our Training Day afterwards...

50 vehicles came in for grading.. a World record! . Special thanks to our Tech Grading Experts who spent most of their time inside/on top of/underneath  them

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

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..
