20th LRCI Birthday...

Happy Birthday to Land Rover Club Indonesia (LRCI), who recently held their birthday party at Buperta Cibubur. Like in the previous year, the party is held in an camping ground for two days 1 night. Since the place very near and easily accessible from Jakarta I decided to come to the party. I am not a formal member of LRCI myself but it is good to hang around with the guys who have the same passions, and it is also good to hear others bragging and showing off their pets and probably I can pick up few ideas for my future project or modification.

Problems... Only Bumbum is vailable at the moment, my Honda is in the garage for fixing few dents... and Bumbum is not yet 100% healthy you know the axle things that is not yet sorted? Finally I decided to bring Bumbum, and test how 4jb1-T engine the current axle set up performing. So off I go and surprisingly Bumbum manage to arrive safely... (more report on the journey in next post).

When I arrived, I saw many land rovers in show, they all showing their best... bright and clean, big tires, extreme kits, all original, muscle engine, body modification etc etc.. and when I saw my land rover, it badly modified defender wannabe, scruffy paint, and have a wrong axle set up. So I hide my land rover in the deep shadow so no one will find it, and go to the main event area.

I have absolutely no one I know, everybody is busy talking (most probably bragging about their land rover) to others, so immediately I felt lonely, and shy because my land rover is not very special ... but hey... this is the place where we all are friends so nothing to worry about... so I take another good look .. there are I saw familiar face... it's Pak Tony... the one that helped me lend his tire when two of my tire burst off in the XIX LRCI birthday ( in Rubicon Trail 4x4 cibakatul Cibadak-Jonggol.). and then I met Tri Nugraha and then I met others, who introduce me to others and to others.. so there... I have a lot of friends now. I did not spend over night there, but I back in the morning just to take more photos...

Here are few pictures, I have more than this... just let me know if you want it... the original size is around 2 megs each.. enjoy...
