The Vintage Heavy Commercial Vehicle club run an annual event, "Hauling the Hume".
Pretty Sally from the last "Haulin' the Hume", a big Swede being given a lesson by a hundred year old Henry. [biggrin]

Next "Haulin' the Hume" is in a couple of weeks.
That road has changed a heck of a lot in the last 15 years, let alone 50.
And that's only a FM, so not big.
It's big compared to a Dyna.
I drive it on a regular basis.. The hume (old and new) that is…
Hmm,
Memories.
Loosing the rear of a beetle on the rail bridge near Picton .
Three days on a Vespa, Mel to Syd, sleeping under a park table near Albury, to wake to a breakfast tray from a nearby caravan .
Mini Cooper S over taking a truck up hill only to meet another one just out of a left side road.
Sleeping under a wire fence at Yass turn off and waking to a cracking June frost.
Hitching a ride with a couple of beery farmers in an FJ ute on a foggy night with zero forward vision.
Hitched with a Falcon Futura driving at insanely fast speeds.
Must have been nuts!
Cheers
