Who's coming to Frazer!!!

I am particularly interested in the guys from NSW, or am I the only buggy/baja nut down here making the trip.

I'm leaving Sydney on Monday moring, the 24th of November. I will get to Brisbane on Tuesday as I am planning an overnight stay in Brunswick Heads. This will leave me a few days in Brisbane to catch up with people that I know up there.

What are you guys all doing?

For anyone interested;

WHO – Manx Club Australia
Fraser Island Trip 2003!

WHEN – 29th / 30th Nov 03

WHERE – Meeting at BP Service Centre, just north of Brisbane on the Highway heading north (the one with the McDonalds, near Caboolture). Meeting at 7.00am, leaving 7.30 am sharp and cruising up to Rainbow Beach. Should get to Rainbow around 9.30-10:00am. Pick up our permits and head out onto the Manta Ray Barge.

COST - $60 Club Members, $65 Non Club Members this includes your trip entry, Manx Club T-shirt and barge fees. You will still need a National Parks vehicle access and camping permit (about $35?).

DETAILS – We will be camping just north of Eurong on the Beach. Once we get to the camp site on Saturday we will set-up, have some lunch, then head off for an afternoon cruise. In the evening we have some activities planned and a BBQ. On the Sunday we have another trip planned to the Northern tip on the Island and then back into Central Station for a look around. Some members will be leaving while others will be staying till Monday when they will cruise back down Double Island beach and get off at Noosa Nth Shore and cruise back down the Highway to Brisbane.

Last year we had over 20 Buggies in attendance along with 3 Baja bug and a couple of people in 4WD’s who just wanted to hang out and see the benefits of finishing / getting their buggies sorted.

WHAT TO BRING - The club will supply a BBQ and group tent / cover. You will need to bring all your own camping gear and food for the weekend. Shops are available but prices are higher than Main land. Toilet facilities are also available a short drive from the Camp Site.

WANT MORE INFO ?? – If so please contact Brad - email
brad@manxclub.org, or just reply to this post.

I hope to see you all on the BEACH!

Boozer, your more than welcome to come. Non members just pay an extra $5 to come along as a kind of incentive to join the club.

As for numbers, Brad would be the person to ask. I think most of the QLD guys will be there, and 1 NSW guy so far 😀

And here I was thinking that it was this weekend clashing with the Noosa Hillclimb and that my country buggy wouldnt be ready- luckily I stuffed up with the dates and so the added two weeks shouldn't be a drama. So you can add another buggy to the list- At the very worst I can bring the hilux (dont mean to swear) to see how the buggies perform etc..

Another CB... way cool....

Hilux is not a swear word 😀 we do however like to reffer to them by the club name of Buggy Recovery Vehicle..... :o:o

I will have my CB home this time next week with a bit of luck... how cool will my yard look then, 4 Buggies, 1 CB, 2 x Type 3's and Kombi, a Hilux and a few other Manx's that will be visiting for some pre fraser hot ups 😀😀😀😀

fraser is pretty mild offroad wise. If you worried about your car you can probably park it at the camp site and bu, lifts off others for the weekend. There are plenty of people with spare seats.

the soft sand is the only tricky bit, I'm sure plenty of people will offer to tow you out if you get stuck.
