The BIG Trip - leaving next week!!!

**LRHybrid100** · 11th June 2008, 03:33 PM

G'day Guys,

Not been around much the last couple of months for various reasons - mainly too busy building up the D110 to my vision of the Ultimate tourer!!! see my website LRHybrid100 Website under "D110 Details"

My Long Service leave starts next week, I have also tagged on all my annual leave and some unpaid leave - why not I have resigned!!! Let them struggle

So we don't really have a schedule - leave late next week and return back to Sydney for November(ish) but we plan to do the following route:

Sydney / Wagga / Mildura / Broken Hill / Port Augusta / Roxby Downs / Coward Springs / William Creek / Coober Pedy / Oodnadatta / Marla / Yulara / Kings Canyon / Hermannsburg / Alice / Yuendumu / Rabbit Flat / Wolfe Creek / Halls Creek / Bungle Bungles / Kununurra / Wyndham / El Questro / Kalumburu / Mitchell Plateau / Fitzroy Crossing / Broome / Cape Leveque / Derby / Drysdale River Dampier / Eighty Mile Beach / Port Headland / Karajini / Exmouth / Onslow / Ningaloo / Monkey Mia / Kalbarri / Geraldton / Cervantes / Perth and then back towards the East Coast

If your interested I will try to update my webpage LRHybrid100 Website under "Travels" which pulls in a Google Map of our trip.

If anyone is travelling around in these areas or lives anywhere along this route and wishes to meet up at any stage just post up some details in this tread or email me from my website.

I hope to keep the Solihull brand alive out in this great land of ours (yes I am now also an Aussie)

See you all soon and wishing us luck

Hi Mark, As you know, I am very envious.

Have a great trip!

I look forward to your reports.

You're an Aussie? Bull****! You don't sound like one.

Nevertheless, welcome to the fold.

Best Wishes,

Have a great trip Mark.

Make sure you spend plenty of time on the west coast (Exmouth and Coral Bay in particular). I regret not spending more time there when I did "The big trip".

So have fun, slow down, relax, enjoy, drink, be merry, catch a few fish, drink some more and return safely.
