    Nick,
    we used to use a woody plant poison to help control lantana on our farm. I think it was called Grazon which targets only the woody plants and not the grasses. Roundup tends to nuke everything. The poison needs to be applied when the plants are actively growing(usually Dec- april from memory)
    We never cut back the lantana, just sprayed it, much easier when you have lots of it.

    Good luck, you’ll need it.

    Its the same old story – but about 20 years ago putting a swing set together for the kids with a mate helping (along with too many beers) and finishing about one in the morning (had to wait for the kids to go to bed before starting). The worst part was the sober missus trying to tell us we were doing it all wrong. :S

    GOOD LUCK

    Great ride report Kat you are making us all envious with your determination and resilience. A life experience, you’ve done it and a lot of us are jealous. :cheer:

    GOOD ONYA

    Gavb, myself and another mate from Jindabyne may be doing much the same ride to Lostas on Wed the 29th as Gav cannot get away on Tuesday. I’ll probably take the 800 Beemer for a run so it will not be anything difficult.
    So if Wed suits anyone else who would like to tag along, they are welcome. :woohoo:

    If Wayne loses his way we could catch up with him. 😆
    (Sorry Wayne – hope Santa brings you the tracker for Chrissy)

    They look good together, Micks must be the hard core model with the racks, hand guards, pannier frames and Old Bull Stickers :laugh:

    Nice work, Camerons here you come eh

    Coming to the High Country in April?

    TB

    I must admit they look like seeing double, just need some OB stickers and you could try and ride off on the wrong bike. :cheer:

    I used to like my NX650 which was a later model but I was always partial to the older red model with the Gold rims. :silly:

    Good one Kram, hope to catch you on a ride soon.

    Sounds like it should be another great weekend.
    Looks like Gavb converted Tryhard to the Adventure side on the recovery ride on the weekend, thought he was missing out on too much fun.

    Hi Guys,
    Waynes wife is going to ring tonight if she hears anything. (She has contacted the police who have no reported accidents)
    If not Scott (who did not meet up with Wayne this morning) and I will take off early in the morning and follow the route he was planning to take. Big call, but with 2 sets of eyes looking from the 4×4 ??? Just hope he’s OK

    Wayne, seeing as I’m post op recuperating at present and not allowed to ride, I could probably bring the cruiser and trailer along to keep TB happy 😆 😆

    Hey TB, Mickp is no longer invited. :laugh: Then again we could do with a comedian on the trip. (He seems to think he is one) :laugh:

    Dont worry Micknmeld the latte drinking brigade have yet to put the runs on the board, first they turn up and go home in the car. This ride they are coming up late, not with the main group probably up the hwy and will hide the car and trailer around the corner: laugh: :laugh:

    I think Gavb has a little more ticker then them anyway ;)

    TB

    Just booked the Penthouse Suite accomodation at Nabiac with attached garage so I can hide the Cruiser in there.
