Confirmed Meet-up In the Middle - New Poll

[rottodiver]

I'm pretty sure it was the 2nd so everyone can meet up, recoup and leave the following day.

Not sure on exact duration (Darren?) across but there's no rush in my books.

Definitely no rush, I am just trying to work out estimates of time etc, looks like I am going to bring the camper trailer, leave it at mt dare, then do a solo crossing east to west after our trip to pick up the trailer and come back to Perth through the north of Western Australia .....

Just trying to be semi organised lol...

Good on you Scotty, you will be an old hand by the time you have to do the solo and if you want to put some pace on could get it done pretty quick.

I was thinking 4 days across including either short days or a rest day in the middle somewhere if we have a good camp site depending how people are feeling. Being a smaller group maybe that rest day for socialising wont be as important as it would have been with 20 cars.

I will be in no hurry though and am not one to start the car at 7am and give everyone a hard time to be ready.

I am thinking 9am till 3pm driving each day with a lunch break at the worst.

Certainly happy to discuss this as a group though.

I am easy as well... The problem with me at the moment is I am changing my mind ever 2 hours when I am thinking about this trip.. Camper trailer or no camper trailer( I have decided I ain't towing it across the desert at least) put the rooftop on or use a tent , come back and do north west or stay in SA and do flinders and come back across the nullabor.. I am worse than a bloody woman at the moment... No matter what we decide I can't wait!!!
That is what this all about isn't it!!

What were fuel requirements from memory about 270ltr for petrol
and 180ltr for diesel does that sound right one way

For a flag pole go to K-mart and buy a 13mm tent pole kit.
This is perfect for desert flags I used to make 3 piece flag from 13mm solid fibreglass
A small piece of 20x20x 1.2 rhs will allow the flag pole the slide in the RHS 150mm long, remember thinks don't fall up
Probable better fitting it to a roof rack rather than from the top of your bull bar, if anyone gets stuck I still have plenty of laser cut
material for bull bar or roof rack mount brackets

If any of the WA boys need a sand flag, I have a spare you can borrow. Brand new mine-site sand flag with light on top. You just have to wire it in. PM me if you need it.
