Bribie Island... 4 x 4 M & G. details. :)
Date:- . 10th January 2010 ( Sunday )AF Members. 4 x 4 M & G. Jan 2010
Place Meet:- .. BP Service Centre. Bruce Highway, Burpengary.
Time:- .Meet 9am .Depart 9.30am sharp

Equipment:- .. Lunch ( picnic ), snatch strap, umbrella or shade, chair, cold drinks, bathers, camera, ( for those that are magnets mozzie repellent ), sunhat and walking shoes. UHF radio. Kayak or Canoe.
This route can be seen from Google Earth and is classed as easy . We will be traveling the beaches at low tide. The inland tracks can be very soft in places and definitely 4WD is required. Deflating of tyres is a personal choice. FYI, I will be using 18psi. Some of the tracks going over the dunes into camp spots are steep and soft under foot. Those that do not have snatchem straps or UHF, please let me know at the meeting place. Mobile phone service should not be a problem.
For those that have never traveled on the beach before, please let me know and I will give you a quick rundown on beach rules and manners. Remember, a beach is a designated road under Qld Transport rules. Obey all speed signs.

My dictionary defines green as unripe, immature, undeveloped'. Perfect description.
Most political parties are seen as interested in what the voters think, the Greens are seen as thinking the community should be interested in what they think.
