1/11/2025 Attendees: Alan (Trip Leader): Ranger Wayne: GU Patrol Colin: Prado Sean: Triton (Tail end Charlie) I'd always wanted to do the Dwellingup Fenceline, so a reccie was organised to go check it out. The club has been before, about 12 months ago. Although it had only been 12 months, we weren't sure what condition the track would be in after the wettest winter in 30 years. After the usual meet up, coffee and debrief in Dwellingup, it was off to Scarp Road to air down. Th

With 11 vehicles and 16 people we filled the cafe. The forecast showers became a down pour. Not such a brilliant way t

Will we or won’t we run the trip because of the weather The weather forecast was spot on and unfortunately it did rain almost all day. We started the day with a brief and short trip meeting as it was already raining; even filling in a trip sheet was a challenge. Most people dropped tyre pressure before we began. As you do on the powerline, some people had to drive in the offset wombat holes as preparation for what was to come. The challenge was enjoyed. I chose a short track

Sunday 20 July 2025 Well, we picked a great day for it! Cold, rainy, yet not miserable 😊. The group met at 9:30 as planned, and after a brief chat regarding the track we would take (choice of 4.6km, 7.9km or 14.8km), we agreed that mid-range would work and set off. Almost immediately we started mixing with the locals. About 1km in, we got to the first sign/ marker, which was when one of us started asking “are we there yet?” (and no Simon we were not 😊). It was also at thi

Attending Dave & Emma - Prado -TL Brandon - Dmax Sean - Triton - TEC Alan - Ranger Well, as per usual, every year I like to run a trip out to Brunswick. This year's plan was to continue exploring a track that I found a couple of years back, we attempted it last year, but turned around due to time, so this year, I was determined to do that track first. Meeting at the Harvey Bakery, we headed out to Brunswick, airing down and getting right into it. Normally I exit down this hil

Setting off through the beautiful Moondyne bush tracks then on to Toodyay where we viewed some history in the museum. Then some great back roads winding through the wheatbelt.

The last time was in the winter when track conditions were quite wet. We started off at the BP servo The Lakes.
