    2021 0pening day

    Spent some time, like 5 hrs the day before slashing the track in to be wide enough, blackberry is not paint friendly
    Had a good day though.

    And
    A word of advice to anyone contemplating a 3 or 4 or etc point turn when running out of track..
    Do not back into the river without checking the drop off first
    Your in cab camera does not tell you the depth of the side stream nor does it compute the ground clearance
    4 wheel drive is utterly useless when the 2 back wheels are hanging in the water, the exhaust pipe is burbling as it is also under water and your in panic mode as there is nobody for miles.
