Hi Bruce,

I moved this thread over from the Softskin forum into this new Corowa forum Geoff just started for Corowa stuff, and left a re-direct from where you originally posted it so people can find it

If I did wrong and you specifically wanted it in the Softskin forum, then I will move it back there for you.

As the president of the KVE Inc (Khaki Vehicle Enthusiasts) group, it is gratifying to see that Corowa (NSW Australia) now has it's own sub-forum on Maple Leaf Up. I will use this site to inform and keep up to date matters relating to the Corowa event known as the Annual GPA Swim in and Military Rally. This year as stated earlier the theme was Staff Cars and Cycle. Of the 164 entries, 7 staff cars arrived, 33 motor cycles and several pushbikes registered. Unfortunately, the majestic Murray River that Corowa is nestled on, did not live up to it's reputation as a significant water source due to the drought, so the larger amphibious (DUKW) vehicles were unable to swim. Only one small GPA ventured into the water. It was down around 6'.

Each year, we get new participants attending this event from all over the world and we were honoured to host Geoff Winnington-Ball for the first time and he's looking over my shoulder right now.

We'll get back to you with other photos and more information when we can.

Regards John Hedges

... well, John. I think it was more than 5 to 12 that you finally got on MLU ;-)

Here's another pic (a little bit more sharper than Keefies) of some of the MLU members which were there on Saturday evening after the grill fire.

Hello John and Fiona, and it was a happy surprize and it's really great to see you both in here!!!

I'm SO sorry I was not able to be there and meet you but I am very glad that Geoff was finally able to have his visit and attend ... also very glad that Geoff created a whole new forum just for Corowa

I have a feeling it will be a busy part of MLU!

Take care,

Karmen

Just wait for the video - there's plenty of fire action and interviews with Bay and Jif.

There was still a little playing around in Corowa. Here's a Blitz C60X stucked in the Corowa Mountains ;-) I was told she did it around 10 times. Unfortunately, I only saw the last one.

Keefy filmed the whole thing in 16:9. Be prepared to see it on his famous DVDs. Hopefully he will post an apetizer soon ;-)

Watch me

Nice sash Max, just a couple hundred more shows & Kathy could make you a new bed spread.

The images from the rest of the week will come soon. Hope you'll enjoy them.

It was my first trip to Corowa this year(2007) I only made it for saturday but had a great day. Max showed me how to navigate this site when we dropped in on him on our way to Canberra. Now I know why Howard told me you can wast a lot of time here.
