Good onya Tony, it looks like quite an experience.
They have to be the biggest front knobbies I've ever seen; surely they're not standard?
Can we expect more photos?

The knobbie pattern in the sand in the first photo is the same as the second photo but in the clouds ::),well if your an artist you'd see it. :-\

Doesn't look like Mr Bendell has graded that line for a while ;D

Well done to you and your crew,good to see the country hasn't changed and not burnt out too much.
cheers Alison

Ah yes, those front tyres............ They're actually 19" rear tyres.  :-\ Yeah, I was sceptical too and in fact after the first 15 minutes on them, I was ready to go back and refit the TKC80's.
But once we got into softer going, they were fantastic! They made the Simpson crossing quite easy. Didn't get stuck or fall off even once. You just had to be very careful on hardpack or bitumen.  :D 
Thanks for that Freaky. I was just thinking of sending you a pm to see if you had it. Plan to take it to Wasleys the next time you're going, but I may have to come to town in the meantime, so I could pick it up from somewhere down there if I do. I'll keep you posted.
Thanks for your kind words too, Alison. The country along the SA/WA border was looking great thanks to good rains around Christmas time, but the further East we got, the worse it started to look. Around Poeppel Corner, the place was just dead. Not good to see.
There's a quick slideshow of photos here too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaJb7keHe6M

Hi all.
For some reason, the raffle isn't proving to be too popular. If anyone's got any suggestions as how we can sell a few (read "a lot") more books, I'd love to hear them.
The raffle is the major part of our fundraising effort so I really need to move a lot of books over the next couple of weeks to make the event a success.
Any and all suggestions, most welcome.  ;D
Thank you.

Edit: Just noticed this will fall somewhere inbetween Rick Sieman's plight and the half naked women............. I'd be surprised if anyone even reads this.................  :D :D

Tony,
I have had a couple of goes at buying some tickets online and haven't been able too, the link to the tickets doesn't work.
Maybe other people are having the same trouble.
..............wonder where I'll hang my hannah jersey.....?

Just rang them and found out that it's not actually an online order form. You just download the form, print it out, fill it out and mail it to us.
I just did it and it works but right click on the form below and print it out if that helps.
