A day of 4 wheeling for the relations visiting from Darwin. The Aussie learnt to drive the landrover - Colin showed us how to blow a diff! Plenty of mud runs for the kids in the passenger seat (huge smiles).

SEPTEMBER FUN DAY
Fun Day #2 for the year - at Ruapekapeka. Ooops, it was bit wet to get through much of what we had planned, but any day out is a fun day out, and we know we've got some great hazards there for some dryer conditions.

RUAPEKAPEKA
Far too wet for playing (and even for Northland, that's WET!!) we took a gentle wander around the site of September's fun day and picked out a great spot for some very intriguing hazards - hope you can join us. Colin & Brett have the details.

JULY CLUB RUN
A day at Lowe's Farm - an awesome playground. Plenty of steep tracks to test (and torture), and lots of wet crossings. Just one casualty, which provided a lesson for us all - keep your arms INSIDE the rollcage...

NFFW FUN DAY #1
A great first fun day for the year. Colin produced the only rollover (on the 1st hazard), all vehicles finished intact, the ladies finished on even points, and Brett stole the day in the hilux. Well done to all the drivers. Bring on Ruapek..

PUREORA FOREST
10-11 August 2007. Playing on the forest tracks for a couple of days with overnight stays in the hut. Sounds like it was a great trip - the landrover lost its roof, Brett's wagon spent an extra night in the bush, and everyone got drenched and went home smiling.

CLUB RUN TO KAIHU
22 July 2007 - Ellis Block, Opitiki Rd, Kaihu: After we worked out where we were going, cleared the fallen trees off the road, we found a lovely wet, and soon muddy crossing, discovered many things to be fixed on the vehicles before the Pureora trip next month. It's all on video - see it at the next club meeting. I'll try and get some on the website soon.
