Moke Owners Association

The Moke Ocean Road tour for 2011 will be a the Saturday down to lorne for Lunch and then cruisey drive home in the afternoon back along the GOR or via an inland route. The trip is about going for a drive and enjoying the roads and scenery with the odd stop at something touristy.

The Hanging Rock car show has become one of the premier car shows in Victoria. The 2012 show will be held on 12th February and Andrew G. is organising the regular run to Rock for members.

This month the Service Day returns to Ron's place at 1 Beaufort St, Mitcham. The day starts around 10am and finishes later in the afternoon.Lunch is BBQ style and BYO tools if you are planning to do some work on your Moke or if you are just coming for the chat, then bring some lubricants for your mouth.

Adele and I are organising a MOA trip to East Gippsland over the Labour Day long weekend in March (10th-12th). I shall have more details of the trip & meeting point etc. in the February edition of Tracks, but the plan at the moment is Saturday, head to Blores Hill Camping Ground near Glenmaggie via lots of back roads (North of Highway). Blores Hill has tent camping or 15 bunkhouse cabins, so no need to take all gear if you choose a cabin. Heyfield & Maffra are nearby which have the usual food shops, pubs etc.

If you were to believe the promotion of this trip you would be thinking it is too difficult for the current day Solo Man, Bear Grylls, to tackle and he is peeing himself so much he needs to drink it through his socks. However he doesn't have a Moke and you do so why not come out and experience another aspect of Moking, the adventurous bush drive just out of Melbourne.
