Trip Planning Workshop, mid May
We’ll be holding another Trip Planning Workshop in early to mid May. Details are still being finalised, so watch your email for notification when it hits the website. We’ll have a bit of a focus on a particular aspect of running trips an then look at the calendar to get some things listed for the winter season. If you have some ideas of things you’d like to see on the calendar, come along and let us know.
Stuckey and Michelin at May Monthly Meeting
Advance notice that Stuckey Tyres and Michelin will be coming to the May Monthly Meeting to tell us all about the latest Goodrich and Michelin 4WD tyres. Watch Torque and the website for more info.
That's it for now, but watch your email - we will let you know as things come up.
See you at the meeting next week!
cheers
Steve
