Dave was telling me he might look to do the Coffs Harbour trip later in the year when the whether is warmer.

Would anyone be interested in Manor park in the queens birthday long weekend?

It is about a 5 hour drive away (from my place) but the maps look pretty good.

It looks like a massive park, with all types of terrain and grades. We would certainly be interested in this trip. Due to the distance, we would consider the possibility of going up on the Friday to give 2 full days play in the park

It is a nice place to camp, amenities are clean, plenty of firewood to collect, and the proprietors are great. You will enjoy Manar, but it is very popular with the bike brigade too. Definitely worth a visit.

Not a club trip Ben. Steve and I went there a few Easters ago with bike riding family members.

One more place to consider for a trip at some time. Springbrook Host farm, which is 87 km from Gympie, and around 3 hours drive from Brisbane.

Below is a link to their web site. This place was featured on the DVD of 4WD Action #198 (May 2013). It has easy to very difficult tracks (though most appear to be of an easy rating).

Well, I'll volunteer. July can be a "Dave trip leader" month.
