Melbourne day trip - Tallarook - 12 May |
|
Hi all,
I'm helping organise a day trip into Tallarook State Forest about 1 hour north of melbourne, with the d2au group - it's a big group, and we won't be going too far or fast, but if any of you want to come along, Horto and I will be there with our D3's and any other D3 support will be great, amongst the modified D2's...
Meeting at Strath Creek at 9:15am.
Email me at sarch@4x4intelligence.com.au and I'll send my contact details if you're interested.
cheers,

Must have been steep based on the way you had to take a run up to get over the lump in the track.

quite steep, and very loose underfoot - in another video - you canm see I try to take it slowly, but just got stuck at that lump! Also - should have used gravel/snow setting instead of rock crawl...
