Six Of The Best by Trugga on Mon Dec 31, 2012 5:45 pm
As it is the end of the year, I thought it opportune to post six of my best FOG related photos from 2012.

Having gone through hundreds of photos I've taken this year, I realise I have not taken part in many FOG activities this year (I'll have to improve on this for 2013).

That said, here are my 6 of the best (and why):

Image

Who can forget the FOG Annual Meet. The weather was a little damp for the laning part of the weekend, but we got some reasonable mileage in all the same. The above photo shows two groups having come together to escort a stranded member back to camp.

Image

Another fom the Annual Meet, but this time a muddy truck playing in the sunshine.

Image

Again, another cracking day out (and night for some) up at the Bobster residence.

Image

Probably the last public outings for the old Sport. At the beach with friends, in the sunshine.

Image

A new truck for me, which has so far proven reliable and will be my transport on hopefully a few FOG outings this comming year.

Image

Finally, a Beginners Laning Day, this time leading from the passenger seat of Roo's Sport.


Pleasw submit your own "Six Of The Best" - should surely bring back some memories and provide inspiration for others.

Loving the first picture I remember the convoy from the annual laning trip escorting the member from foreign shores back to base.
As always great pictures :thumbup:
I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.
