November 5, 201015 yr Author comment_480381 Spent the unofficial Melbourne cup long weekend in gippsland. Drinking way too much, water skiing in a mate V8 boat and crossing rivers that no 'rolla could cross after the recent rain! Also got my centre road wreckers roof racks on. 9 bucks each. Off a mitsubishi van. As much as I love the 'rolla, this is the car to see Australia in! Report

December 18, 201015 yr Author comment_489132 So I got a week off before Xmas and went camping in the Victorian High Country. Spent seven nights without ever going to a town. No phones, computers, news or tv. Pure bliss. I took two books, the saturday paper and loads of food and grog. Went to three spots and just chilled out. Report

December 18, 201015 yr Author comment_489150 Love it! Especially the last three photos! Real living! You need a metal detector for gold nuggets! Thanks for the comment. The last three were from an old gold mining town, "winchester". Closest spot on a map will be Talbotville, another old gold town. Threw another photo in for you, shot from the river. Was by far the best spot. Report

March 11, 201115 yr comment_509374 A mate of mine collects those bikes. He has a collection going back to the 50's. More than 10 in all. Including 'rally pack' kits and all. They are seriously cool. He also has two AE86's two US Mustangs, a Valiant Chargerand a town and country Valiant Ute etc etc. Plus a factory to keep them all in including hoist and a mezzanine to store all his parts and stuff. And a fridge. Report

Amen to that! :yes: Awesome journey by the sounds of things, definitely the right vehicle choice. :) One of my most peaceful moments was doing a 3 day solo hike along the Lerderderg River. Nothing electronic, everything I had was in/on my backpack & no people. :wink: Damn, this makes me want to go bush again :lol: Report

January 26, 201214 yr Author comment_580260 All was going well last sunday until I lost momentum going up hill, slid backwards and we turned over. No injuries, so in the end, it is only a car. People are much harder to replace. Bamboo - now coming with space in the driveway. Report
