Folks I did, (along with my dog and camper trailer), the first Club Darling River Run and I highly recommend it. Not sure how much water is out there now but it's probably still a great trip. Of...
My son still talks about how cold it was the night we camped at Wilpena Pound, back on that first trip. Good luck everyone, a great experience awaits.
Have a great trip folks, wish i could have gone again. I hope all your corrugations are little ones. Dave nice to see your still using the KJ avatar.

The latest issue of the "Grey Nomad Times" has a story about the recent sale of the Birdsville Bakery for $1.2mil. That's a lot of camel pies! This is the second sale of the bakery that i am aware...
Reg I am very sorry to hear this very sad news. I remember all our conversations and her wondetful sense of humour. My condolences to you and your family.
Regards Glen
I know there was some thought of another Cape trip when the timing was right. Is this on the calendar for 2016?
Have a great trip folks and travel safe.
Many USA bars are technically illegal here. Must be ADR compliant. Better check what's possble first.
I have Rock Lizard Super Skink rock rails on my KJ which are far enough out (at least 100mm) and provide a nice step (when non-slip tape is on top). Never been pulled up and they are great for...
Steve that's a roof design very similiar to my camper. One issue that you will need to address is weather sealing while underway. Mine doesn't leak when stationary but if its raining heavily while...

That's right Dave, i saw it, roof top tent and all, down the drop and no 'stick in the mud'. Imagine it's totally different now after the cyclones.
Steve I ran my Waeco 35 on a 55ah second battery on the Cape trip, and found it really struggled in the heat of the September Cape. I was charging it off my rooftop mounted solar panel but it would...
Happy Birthday Dave! Cheers Glen
There is room for camper trailers at the Hut where we camped several years ago when when we did that trip - at the spot near where the ute rolled. Brian and Heidi led that trip so they would know the...
You don't need a roof top tent, Hunno slept in a hamock. Check with Miraz, he did the run in something like two days, via the inland route in his wife's Pajero - at warp speed.
Mani time your crossing of Brisbane and Townsville carefully, as both are bad in morning or evening rush hours. The highway from the border to Brisbane is terrible in the mornng. Townsville has grown...
Looks like the battery has gone dead in Hunno's Spot Tracker device. No updates in the last 24 hours and the last reported position said the battery was low. I was enjoying watching their progress.
I noticed that Hunno's Spot device showed him stopped at least ten kms east of Lyndhurst overnight on Wednesday, hope everything is ok because there's nothing there - certainly not the stopover at...
I will be watching Hunno! And it doesn't take much effort to write a few lines at the end of each day, and run a thread here, as I did for the Darling River Trip - and by the time you get back you...
Have a great trip and I hope its dry out there ( the Strez) this time.
So this is actually the third fuel head you have had in a few weeks? What was wrong with the original one that led to you replacing it? It's hard to see how three separate fuel heads could be faulty...
Yeah Dave, what is Eddy doing re that business, i'd happily drive down to Sydney to give him some service business.
Sounds like its pulling air in from somewhere. Have a look at all the head connections, and make sure the filter is snug on the ring and the water sensor on the bottom is tight - did you replace the...
