[NSW] 4WD and camping dirty weekend

There's been some talk, so now there should be some planning. The idea is to go away for the weekend, do some (tame) 4WDing, camp overnight, talk lots of bull, have fun, etc. I figure we need to decide who, where and when.

So, the Who is easy - just post in this thread!
The Where - post a suggestion.
The When - we'll wait and see how the who and the where goes, then pick a weekend :)

Suggestions we've had so far:

- Stockton Beach
(staying overnight in the caravan park, doing some sand dune 4WDing, and some beach fishing)

- Newnes
(bush camping, easy 4WDing)

We have a book with a huge range of campsites (arrived last night) that I will have a flick through and see if there's anything decent within range from Sydney and add to the list of options.
There has also been an offer of a spare seat or two, so if you don't have a 4WD but want to tag along for the weekend, post up and see if you get adopted for the weekend 8)

STATUS:

The Who:
Dave#3 & Cath
Red_dave & Mon
MadKaw, Jus and the MiniKaws
Richo & boozatboo
Nelso

Possibles:
Dizzi & ijuschill (requesting any spare seats)
Colette (requesting a spare seat)
mohawk miss (either seats, or just the camping if campsite is car-accessible)
Canberra crew may come along if we head south
Wattie may come along
Blurr will get stranded somewhere in the barina
waynemorgan & son

When I saw dirty in the title I hoped you might be thinking somewhere for dirt bikes, but I don't think the KLR would make it that far :cry:


Still, if you picked somewhere in the Brindabella's I reckon a fair few of the HCC, and probably a few extras, would get our dirties out there no worries :kuda:


....not much in the way of beach fishing up there though :lol:

I usually have a spare seat Collette as my wife doesn't like 4wd's or camping, so you should have no worries getting a lift.
