Meetup in the middle 10 yrs on trip June 2024
So after cape Jaffa and discussion with interested people I’m going to put forward my proposal, us gropers will head to laverton around 24th may and head to coober pedy via the Anne Beadell track and meet you Victorians on Monday 3rd June giving you guys two days to get there from Melbourne. From there off to oodnadatta and Dalhousie, setup camp and next day a trip into mount dare and back, around the 6th head across the French line taking 4 days, conquer big red then into birdsville for a rest day then haddons corner , Cameron’s corner and from there us gropers will head back and down the strezleckie track and home! Please respond if you are definitely interested, this will be an epic trip and if anyone is after a bigger challenge then you are welcome to come west and do the Anne Beadell with us.

@Stropp
Just checked my work diary and can't do. Gotta start work on Tue 6th. As a contractor, I'm unable to change dates. So sorry.
Damn I was so looking forward to it, too.

You're correct. LOL. Checked out 2024 and still can't do. Not going to drive for 2-3 days, spend 2 nights camping and then drive 2-3 days home - as much as I'd like to.
Spewing. If I'm still around for the 20th meet up, I'll be there. I'll be retired by then. lol.

Hey bud we need to revisit these dates when I have not been drinking. The proposed dates don't work with School Holidays in any state, this will be an issue for many and most. We need to do it either the last week of school to lead into School holidays or leading out of holidays. The dates proposed will require kids to take 3 weeks off school ans get home to then take 2 weeks holidays.
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!!
....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Darren, open to dates but bear in mind the big red bash is in the first weekend of July, that’s why those dates to avoid the traffic jam but happy to move back.
