Macca86 how long did it take you 13-15 hrs? Is what google is saying..
It's about 14 to 15 hrs as the forest section is slow. We did it in 2 days. Bris to Gosford then to the property. Going home we went to tamworth then stanthorpe for another shoot then home
always welcome to stay the night at mine on the way there mate, my place puts you 4 hours from the farmQuote:

SWMBO is OS right now but I'd like to come over and meet up.
For those who wanted to know what the track is like, here are 3 vids. I have had a car trailer with tractor on the back there and the missus has had her Hyundai Santafe there.
The main track is just a flat bush track....speed 50-90 km/hr and about 20 min long. I cut the vid shorter
http://youtu.be/XinD1D4Bt4s
The fire trail is only a few minutes and has some small and big humps...need runup in the really wet in 2wd stuff ...only a couple of k's
http://youtu.be/C9EPbnyWqwc
The driveway can be very slippery in the wet with a few small ruts to keep you on the track...in the dry no dramas and only a couple of k's as well
http://youtu.be/UAK14xyJU2I
...so as you can see every man/woman and their dog can make it in there...LOL
Ill say it again, you're a pfc...looks like paradise mate, ripper property!!!!
Thanks mate, will have a look later tonight when the kids r in bed :)
Would more than likely only leave on the Friday arvo / night and leave Sunday arvo as work has informed me kindly I have no annual leave left :(
Oh and I might be driving a Toyota by then :(:(:(:(

My wife and Kids are coming too.
My family will be coming to this too, booked it all in lastnight...plenty of warning... Lol
FYI, the closest servo, shop, hospital(I know..lol) from the property is Braidwood...about and hour
I had a dream of buying a sh!t load of acres at Braidwood once, until I found out how cold and crappy the weather got there. Farken wish I did buy the land instead of blowing all my money when I was younger
Some beautiful country around there mate...Just make that dream come true mate.....If you set your mind to it you will achieve mateQuote:

I'm going to try and make this trip gents. I'm hoping I'll be well on the way to being recovered from my treatment. Not sure if I'll be up for the drive though so I might follow Growlers lead last year and catch a flight.....Time will tell!
