When were people thinking of doing the Flinders and the double crossing, and where would you be leaving from

I most likely will head north to tour the top end after the meet up, so would like to do Flinders on the way to Dalhousie Springs, then do the west to east crossing followed by east to west by a different route

Wow... Wish I could be that flexible with times....
I am all up in the air now trying to decide on taking the camper trailer across ( have even been emailing mt dare for advise and they are very helpful) I think the double they are doing is east to west then west to East and then onto flinders, for Ruth and I it depends on the camper trailer, if I take the camper trailer across we will then do flinders and if we leave the camper at mt dare we will be doing the west east and then doing an east to west trip( probably on a different track) so we can retrieve the camper...
Been studying both ideas for a few days now.

So the official meetup date for this is the 1st of July, 2014. At Dalhousie Springs. I will be travelling for a week before to get to Dalhousie. I will be travelling from Melbourne to Birdsville towing the camper. Parking the camper and heading South on Birdsville Track to pick up the Rig Road for an East West Crossing via the Rig Rd and Southern Simpson Dersert Park.

We will be crossing West East as the full group from 1st July. We will not be in a hurry to do the west East Crossing and hope even to have short days in the car or a rest day in the middle somewhere.

We will have a big dinner celebration at the Birdsville pub on completion of the French Line and conquering of the. Mighty Simpson desert and everyone getting to the Rop of Big Red.

I then intend to collect my Camper Trailer and spend the last week of my 3 week trip travelling the Flinders Ranges before heading home. I have a total of 3 weeks leave and have planned 7 days to Dalhousie the 2 weeks for the crossing, flinders and home.

Which day do you want to meetup at Birdsville?...I'm leaving my van there and picking it up after the crossing ...then continue with our holiday...happy days:)

I'll get back to you mate ;)

I will watch this thread and keep an eye on what everyone's plans are

I will most likely be leaving from Victoria or South Australia.

If a few people are keen on doing an east west crossing first. Then the west east crossing with everyone. I'd be up for that. Not sure if I will do flinders after as I wanna head north to do the top end etc. might have to try and do flinders beforehand.

Winnie has taken a bit of time off and was looking for some company heading North if he could find it. He is keen to do the flinders too but he will have another 2 weeks after they and may just head North for 3 weeks if that's a better offer.

We"d love for you to come to the flinders though Winnie. No doubt bud.

Nah I'm in on the Flinders for sure mate. My leave was shortened to 4 weeks and I might need that last week at home to come back to reality and recover.
