We'd like to give a special mention to Ashlie Enright, Michael Baucock and Phil Macready who not only thought outside the box on SS4, but continued this stage on foot. The amount of kilometres these guys clocked up was amazing.

Well done.

Cheers

Stirlo and officials

[vompie69]

Just want to say a huge thanks to Sterlo, Jo and the officials. What a well run and thought out event. We had a ball, Stage 5 flying finish was one to remember.

We got a tow truck home to Redcliffe, hopefully nothing too serious.

See you all next time,

Pete and Jane

PS, top effort to the guys that had trouble and continued the GPS points on foot, with some being around 4kms round trip back to base.
