Nothing to do now except sit and wait
:pinch:Hi Ace
hope you guys have a great trip.Just looking at the photos of your bike with all the gear loaded – looks good but I would not rely on only occy straps to hold gear on the back rack. Some of the $2 bemer webbing straps work great and you know your gear will still be there when you get home.

Well spotted Mick,,,
I use the webbing straps from SCA (supercheap Auto), good strength, metal buckles and they pull up real tight if you want them too bt quick and easy to release …
Always carry a couple of spares too hey
One question ACE,,,
Where`s the bladder going now,, on top of the dry bag or just in front ????

Hi Mick, thanks for the tip mate. I have some ratchet straps in the top bag that I will swap over.
Catch up for a beer at the 2 day.
p.s might have to have a chat about the Bantam. I am planning on adding one of those to the garage a little down the track.

Ummm Friday night will be either Thargomindah or further. Lunch Hungerford unless we are early in which case who knows? Not going through Innamincka now the thieving pricks there can stick the joint up there arse :laugh: when will you be in Birdsville Al? We are supposed to be there lunch Sunday but may just hump out into the desert and go west until its time to turn back for Monday?

Not even Boony can curse a weather forecast like this
http://www.worldweatheronline.com/v2/weather.aspx?q=-25.8394,139.2630&custom_header=Birdsville
Maybe it’s not having Jacko coming alone but that weather forecast for the whole time is nothing below 17 or nothing above 32 :woohoo:
Excited Crash
