Free State event

Post by Ali3n »

So I have been thinking about this for some time now and have decided to take the plunge and put it out there.

For the guys in the Free state who can't come up here for an event why not organise one there. As they say "if Mohamed can't come to the mountain them the mountain must go to Mohamed".

What would the response be like? Who would be interested to attend an event there? Who would be willing to drive down from Gauteng, or up from the Cape? I know I will be. :thumbup: What is a good venue? If it is a day trip then someware close to accomodation for those coming from far but preferably camping weekend I would say.

Please guys, your input will be greatly appreciated.

I thought of that but it might be a little far if we try an inter-club challenge for the guys from the Cape. But is a nice spot for a weekend. Could work thanks. :thumbup:

Virginia/Aldam omgewing is daar altyd 'n 4x4 track gewees?

Baasvark/Pieter, julle is/was mos Virgin-city manne?

Ek het nog 'n klompie mense in daai omgewing, kan hoor wat gaan aan.

Swaer het gereeld sy 4x4 dae(met LR) by Die Oewer buite Bloem gehou. Sal hom ook vra vir 'n paar venues.

Clarens omgewing?? Kyk bietjie agter in die Weg/Wegry?

Thabo, nou net ingeskakel. Gee my bietjie kans dan soek ek vir ons plek. Ek weet daar was 'n plaas naby Ficksburg wat op 'n tyd 4x4 routes gehad het. Hoe goed hulle is/was weet ek nie maar kan dalk werk.

Nou dat ek kan saam speel sal ek kyk wat ek kan doen :thumbup:

Tal praat jy van Len?

Ek dink net aan 'n plek waar daar genoegsame geriewe is vir al die vrouens en kinders EN wat die manne met meer ondervinding nogsteeds sal geniet.

Gariep is lyk my al 'n paar keer gedoen. Soek 'n plek wat dalk nuut is sodat ons dit dalk voorentoe 'n instelling kan maak.

Wat is daar in bloem?

Shane, die mense is gert en connie, maar ek baie lanklaas van hulle gehoor, so is seker 'n moontlikheid dat hulle die plek verkoop het, ek was nog nooit daar nie, maar weet hulle het heelwat geriewe en selfs verblyf vir die wat nie die kamp ding doen nie.

Ons praat dalk van verskillende mense - Len het 'n plaas net buite Fiksburg, Hy het perde stall ingerig vir huisies sowel as 'n groot huis waarin 'n klomp mense in kan bly.

Dan het hy 'n boskamp met geen geriewe nie. Was al daar en dit was LEKKER!

Enigste ding is dat ek nie weet hoe uitdagend sy 4x4 roetes is nie. Het hulle nog nooit self gedoen nie. Sal dalk eers moet gaan uit toets maar ek is huiwerig om dit alleen aan te pak omdat ek nog redelik nuut is in die ding.

Maar soos jy gese het - dalk meer suid...?

Thabo ek sal kyk of ek kan uitvind.

Gaan nou eers vir 2 weke op verlof dan sal ek begin rond bel.

Ek het 'n boekie uit die Weg sleep gekry waar hulle Shumba Valley adverteer as 'n plek met 4x4 roetes. Maar dis nou weer fouriesburg se kant wat weer dalk nie suid genoeg is nie.

Ek dink ons moet eers vasstel hoeveel manne uit die Kaap uit belangstel en dan soek ons 'n plek. Die probleem met die Vrystaat is dat hy redelik plat is op plekke.

Maar wat se die Kapenaars, hoe lyk die belangstelling ?
