The roads are still out there. These guys have proved you can still do it if you want. I prefer a road trip to a flight any day.

Cheers,

Hi Grey64

Nice to meet you too! Yes it is an orignal 1971 Orange Bali Floral print canopy (also known as Flower Power Top) which got the bjesus beaten out of it on our trip of a lifetime through the Birdsville Track to Cape York and back - 10,300ks later I am back at work today and it is all just a memory....

A big juicy memory I am not soon to forget - it was a BLAST!!! 8)

Glad to have "run into you" for a chat and a little direction back on to the highway (bloody GPS) :D

Same here a roadtrip is an adventure its the journey not the destination , a flight is handy if you need to be there as fast as possible.
