challenger beach
i seen the sign as per my last post this lib government and councils think they can do as they like because we live in a country of people who believe in freedom yes freedom of speech and believe and a non violent approach . the power to be are wising up and taking advantage of this i am starting to think how far they can push before they get a reaction i am a firm believer in what we have . as a basic standard but i am starting to think if all of as have this in mind . I have been a fisherman or person all my life i have watched the loss of many of the beeches to 4+4 vehicle. as a family not over Weight or obsessed we spent most satnights of the Summer at some of these beaches no chardie to be seen but i hope that does not mean it mean nothing

They are closing it because
They are closing it because of "enviromental concerns."
In the paper they had a photo of the access track just South of the Naval base boat ramp which will be closed (boom gate thingy),,not sure whether they will close the horse end,,it just says "Challenger Beach",,,,,
Fingers crossed that we can still get in at Riseley st end.
