Unimog club uk meet: whos interested?
« on: October 02, 2013, 09:26:14 pm »
Hello everyone!

trying to organise a club meet, it will be hosted in lincomb (just south of birmingham) so a nice central location (apart from those in scotland, and yorkshire  :-\ ), and will be some time in june.
basically, before i make a thread for this, i need to have an idea of how many Mogs will attend, and how many people, their will be a cost (probs around £50) for camping and the off road site. be a big campfire and some good old mog chat there as well :)

So how many people will go, and how many mogs?

Cheers, Brian

JUNE?! :o That's ages away! I can only say that I'm 99% sure I would be able to make it, but it's local so there's a bloody good chance.

Never know, I might have one by then!

I thought so and as that is only about 15 miles for me it would be rude not too. Though I did not know of anywhere in Lincomb to go offroading.  :)

It's a private site owned by a friend of mine.  A nice wooded area with plenty of hills and a few bomb holes as well as a very scenic drive round the property (a farm and equestrian centre) including a stretch along the river bank.  There is also a rock crawl section that has been made specially. 

We use it twice a year for our Land Cruiser Club meets and it is a very nice site.

A bit far south for me, thats if I even have a Mog by then.

yeah, unfortunately its the best sight weve managed to find so far, maybe you could make one of our more local meets, we attend the Newby hall vintage rally most years? you dont have to come with a Unimog (although if you attend with a vehicle its free, so maybe one of your landrovers?)

Count me in. Seems local enough and a UK meeting is long overdue. The more mogs the better. Might have to trailer the 411 behind the 406.
