My heart goes out to those affected. One side issue will be that you can bet that the Lake Gairdner salt lake trials in March probably won't happen. That lake is like a sump for any rain in western or south western Queensland. I'll bet the lakes under water within a month or two....if it isn't already.

it would be good if the Murray Darling gets some much needed water though?

Ross, It's on it's way believe me .
The flood we had here last week has reached St George.
Got another one moving through here right now and Sun Water is dumping the water out of Leslie Dam as fast as they can.
So the Darling is looking good.
If I lived on the Condamine I would,nt be cleaning up just yet.

Hope its in one piece and can be craned back into place.Its a top spot there across to Trials and Vinduro Classic Dirt.
At least it didnt have yours or a vmxer's 30ft boat teathered of it,which was the case on the news last night  :'(

Looks like we're going to go under tomorrow :'( me thinks its time to call the calvery in......

Hope you have plenty of bricks to prop the bed/fridge on Jackie,,best luck with it all,,  :-* Its an awesome amount of water.Like a mini Lake Eyre.

The shires/governement need to take in these flood plains and maybe stop allowing to build suburb after suburb on them.These floods I believe happened in the 70's and 99.Everytime we land in Brisvegas I expect to park up on the mangroves  ;D
cheers A


Best is in the West !!
