Buttock Clenching Moment

Thought you might like to see this pic.
Me driving over Nappernerrica Sand dune ( aka "big red"). The largest dune in the simpson desert just outside Birdsville in Qld. Its about 80ft high and considered quite a challenge.
Last time we went across the desert we were unable to drive over it. 3 attempts and we just couldn't make it. This time we sailed over with no problems...both of us drove over. I was quite proud of myself for even attempting it as it is quite daunting.
The "buttock clenching moment" was a kick in the track on the way up where the back end of the LR drifted out as I took it a little wide and we both thought I was going to roll the damn thing. Luckily as I was going flat strap at the time I was able to somehow avoid it. But I did feel like a change of underpants may be necessary when we got to the top!!
Note Numpty hanging on for grim death!!

Whoo hoo. Great Fender action shot Mrs Numpty.

That's a great picture! Really captures the moment.

Have you got a wider angle pic showing the whole vehicle and more of the dune? That would be a keeper. If not maybe you can photoshop something together. I'd be willing to have a go if you don't do photo manipulation yourself.

Nice shot. You need another computer so you can both have logins.

Great pic. Matt
