OK Guys,

Simon, If its ok with you, we have a few vhicles already (4 or 5) that are keen on Klein Helderberg, and I would like to
for the mean time start finalizing (at least for those of us that are showing interest and the NEED to G2G for a braai (bring your own chop & 4x4)

So far I say were looking at Klein Helderberg as follows:

Mcnoogle & The Wife
Blister
ChrisB
Nino62
Nightfighter (??? tentative)

If I may suggest, Sunday 5th December, this gives us more time to rally the troops.
Guys, please advise if you would want to do the 4x4 trail (Two Oceans 4x4 Route) as well.
Hopefully well have 10 -15 vehicles there by then,
If anybody can give me an indication that we can go ahead with this, I'll speak to Klein Helderberg re getting a discount on the trail, as currently its R150 per vehicle.

Regards

Re: WC Christmas GTG - looking for ideas
Ok , just checked with the Boss (both of them)

Count me in.

McNoogle, can you run with the arrangements? I am under the hammer at the moment so will struggle to make a meaningful contribution although I will try chat with the guys at Mitsu for some "sponsorship"

Hi Simon,

That would be Awesome, if we can get some sort of Sponsorship :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

and yes,
no problem for me to run with the arrangements, my business is semi-winding down as it is,
I take it you will also be interested in doing the 4x4 route.

The Route is 1 - 2 hours, but adding an extra 1.5 hours as it gives us 'play time'

Re: WC Christmas GTG - looking for ideas
Yeah I will do the route as well.

Have all the requisites... I have 29Meg and two VHF handhelds, but we need a minimum of 3 radios on the same frequency.
