I will broaden my scope of threads on the Forum.

Its a new dawn for our club, Baboons Pass, it is now the ultimate most extreme event to measure yourself on.
Yes its official Baboons will be back in 2020.
Its also an icon, and I have agreed with Manny and Kurt, that I will take charge again.
its a bit early to start with the detail.
So to those interested, watch this space.

Looks like more records will be broken, 3 Hummers doing Baboons on the same day?

Just a few notes about this Thread:
1. It was unnecessary as our Calendar Thread of 8 October (3 months ago) clearly stated there would be a Baboons Pass Trip.
2. As the Baboons Pass Trip is on the Official Club Calendar it won't be an Open Event - so Thread in wrong section.
3. The Baboons Pass Trip the 4x4AG arranges will be for Paid Up Club Members only - it will only be opened if we are under-subscribed.
Martin will start an official, formal Thread in the correct section closer to the time - but you are welcome to continue discussions here in the meantime...

Are you implying you are going Chas?
In a Defender?

I think Martin Extremos must set some entry requirements...

Manny,
just a feeling, Alex loved it, Renier C interested, TJ ??,
All I know its not a walk in the park, its not Jansens 4x4 or even Karee Krans, its 26km of concentration, focus on the job at hand, no turning back.
leave your ego at home, that pass is tough, it tests you all the time.
As Manny states, lets chat, but the official thread will be launched after the AGM.
