Is this trip still happening? :) What are the dates roughly? And how much grief would I likely get into in a bog stock Brumby? :rolleyes:

I'm not sure on the exact dates but I need to be in SA around mid August and leave around the end of the 3rd week, as I'll be catching up with my Dad. Dad is moving over to the West from Brizzy and I don't think he'll be coming down to Coffin Bay.

I'm pretty sure a stock Brumby would have no issues. I used to take mine (bog stock) everywhere even with the suspension set at low. I was planning to take my Outback but I'm not sure if it will be finished in time :( Wonder if I can take Danielle's Foz :rolleyes:

Fat chance of me going. Too much work, not enough time.

I'd love to, but since it's mid term there is not a chance of me making this one - even if I could afford it!

I would however LOVE to be attending this one - but will have to let it slip this time :evil:

Cheers

Well August being less than a week away and there's been no updates or information posted for months, I'm assuming this big trip idea has fallen in a heap?

Even if it was still going ahead it's been left to the last minute, I won't be able to get a week off work on such short notice. Shame, was kinda looking forward to it :neutral:

It was always going to be mid August, as per earlier posts but unfortunately my one and only convoy partner has pulled out. I still have to go because my Dad is coming across from Brizzy. So with no other interest from other members, I've decided to fly across and drive back with him. I'm happy to drop in and say hi and grab a coffee with anyone along the way.

Cheers,
Paul

Ah okay then, looks like the big 4WD'ing trip will have to wait :rolleyes: Well let us know if you're passing through sleepy old Adelaide on the way back, maybe you can come and see my wagon in it's half finished state, the paint job should be all done by then ;)
