G'day Blaveler's! Just got back from a camping/4x4/dirt bike trip out at Kenilworth. Time for some Blavelage...
The lads went up on the Friday ANZAC public holiday, but i stuck around for prior commitments and went up on the Saturday morn, first thing. Now when you miss a turn off on the Bruce Highway, you REALLY MISS IT. So after taking 3 hours to complete a 2 hour trip i finally made it to Charlie Moreland camp site. Stories from the previous night abound, appanrently things went off like a frog in a sock, largely due to the number of young people camping out the night. A virtual rave party was held by the fire and a group of young lasses found there way, vodka in hand, to the fire pit for laughs and unconciousness. Stories of young adult revelry aside, i setup shop and get the truck ready for a trip.
There's some nice tracks backing Imbil State Forest, plenty of good hill climbs and decents and lots for the dirt bikes to jump around on. I thought i'd caught a possum under my left front tyre. Turns out my auto-lock hub is shagged again so it looks like Angus the 4x4's days are limited :( No more money will be spent on that bloody thing. So after some 4x4 we settle back, have some dinner and get stuck into the beers. Great night, with plenty of young girls still around for chats and the like. I briefly caught on fire at one point and now have severely shorter hair on the left side of my head. All fun and games but!
Crawled out of bed the next morn for another trip through the gullies and streams then up the mountain. All in all a good trip, if not somewhat uneventful compared to my last outing. Waiting on pics to come back so watch this space for updates
