Six Sports go mad in the Snowy Mountains

Just a slight taster of some of the off road fun the ANZ members and friends had this weekend in the Snowy Mountains. 2 days off road driving, including some water work, mountain trails (paths) and generally a great social event. It was great to meet up with 640 and wife, 2nd Rower and his mother who had travelled from the UK, not claiming for our trip mind you, Working dog and his hard working wife, Ivery and wife and last but not least, Grant from Snowy Holidays and his wife who not only helped organise with Working dog, but is also a Sport owner and had a chance to see it at its best..

The sports got a lot of attention, especially from a Toyota group on the Sunday.. Working dogs got some extra attention from the locals

Whats that sound ....

Sounds very tasty

of course it could only be a RR Sport TDv8

Of course it was not only about the locals.. Working Dogs across, 2nd rower about 2 go and we are close behind

This is then followed by Ivery and Grant from Snowy Holidays, who is waiting on the far bank

Excellent weekend had by all, hopefully we will get some more pictures on here from the rest of the ANZ members in the next few days :thumbsup:

There will be quite some Amorall required for all those dirty wheel arches. Maybe 2nd needs an extended trip to Kittens...

I am on "tour guide and chauffeur" duty for a while now.

Looks like you had fun....
