Back on topic...
Fuel (ULP) is available at Forrest....at $3.70 per litre. The place is manned 24/7. Contact is Mark on 08 9022 6403. The road from Forrest to Eucla is 130 km so if you want to avoid paying $3.70 per litre for fuel then pack an extra 7 litres to get you to the Border.
I will contact Mark again closer to the day to indicate fuel estimates.
Back to work Slackers

I'd be disappointed if you didn't contribute something...it would certainly be out of character for you both!!! Just waiting for all the others to chime in.

Just been standing back for a week or so, watching the other cockies on the ground.......watch this space......have you done your online courses to bring you up to date ?
Hope you have your wide foot pegs by now, the forma boots curl round the standard pegs an hurt your feet,when you do 2 days of standing on skinny pegs.
apart from that have an excellent time out there.
and watch out for the depressions in the sand hill roads in S.A.
Would go with you but i'm told I want to stay home and paint the house and do gardening stuff on my days off .
cheers phil

Yeah, got the Pivot Pegz fitted....hope it makes a difference.
I'll think of you painting and gardening....I'm sure it will be rewarding for you in its own special way. Bad enough you have to work at all let alone on the weekends as well.

I would have loved to be coming on this trip with you guys, but can't because of the over rated thing.
So I hope you all have a great ride and I look forward to the next mongrel dog production.
Robbo.
