Well here goes another week guys. I trust you all had a good weekend.
I am going to take my eldest son out to somerset this weekend to try our hands at freshwater fishing so I am hoping this week fly's by! I suppose i couldnt have picked a bloody colder time of year to do it!

G'day everyone! Yesterday I finally took the Wife and kids on their first serious offroad track, went really well, all smiles at the end of the day even with the Mrs crook and all!
Shopping for tyres this week for my Wifes Rav4 it's an 07 model with 17" alloys (225/65/17) looking at some Kumho KL51's or similar. Any feedback on these will be appreciated.
Looking like another good working week for me so off to my first job now!!
Cheers Brad

Looks like I will have to quit this forum as I will have to sell my Nav & be put out to pasture as all you blokes reckon I am too old to drive now. :-(
Well, tough sh1t, you young buggers will just have to put up with me on the road for a few more years yet even though I hit 70 this year.
The alternative is I buy and electric scooter thingy you see all the olds getting around in creating more problems on the footpath.
Fat chance haha

Paul, if you hold the speed limit I am happy for you to be on the road.
I just get frustrated with people with who are inconsiderate on the road.
Not having ago at you, just saying my thoughts.
Dave.

I am gonna try and get up there sometime very soon so I'll be keen to hear how the terrain is up the at the moment. They have had loads of rain up the coast way but im not sure if it reached out there or not.

Ive watched a fair few people do it and I dont think I would in the Nav just yet. Front auto lokka and new tyres and it would be on the cards.
Keen to try Telecom hill this time depending on conditions, haven't tried it yet.
I like the sounds of the forum trip.
