Jamo, Andy et al,
Hopefully in a month or so, some decent rains will make Harvey an interesting trip again. It was pretty tame when RichardK and I went through there last month - much has been 'dozered and cleared.
Cheers,
Gordon

I have driven past Wilbinga more times than I can remember and always intended to go down the track someday, now I know what is down there I will definitely go
That was sure some drop!
HOLY - DROP OFF BATMAN!!!! 8O 8O

Nasty drop that! - GREAT to see you're all OK and the beast made it too!!!

Knight :wink:
Holy guacamole,
That's very scary. If you didn't stop in time I suppose you would have saved a heap of time by getting to the bottom 2.5 hrs earlier but just a bit more frightened.

That IS impressive... no amount of articulation would have kept those front wheels on the ground!
Maybe we can get Andy to grab a water truck to speed things up!Quote:

Gee willikers 8O , tell me if you had known could you still have taken it on ie if you were prepared??. Can't quite tell by the pics. Looks like you will give my D3 bogging on Bribie Island a run for its money https://www.aulro.com/afvb/, glad it all ended up ok,

If I'd known what was ahead, I probably would have let it topple over the edge, rather than brake, and then drive down in the same manner I did eventually.
Mind you, that's assuming that I knew in advance that such a slope was drivable in this car. It was my first foray out in the sand, after all https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Er, actually what I meant was that it was my first foray on the sand in _this_ vehicle - I didn't know exactly what it could handle.
I know what you mean about 'first time blues' however - did the same first time out in my old Range Rover. Couldn't understand how everyone else was zooming past me until I noticed that they all seemed to have flat tyres! Then the penny dropped :oops:
