Hi all,

My gf and I are in the preliminary stages of organising our first "big trip". The plans are (at this stage) EXTREMEMLY rough but for anyone who's interested, as follows:

Leave Brisbane head west to the Carnarvons, north to the Gemfields (near Emerald) to visit family and friends, down to Birdsville (exact route not sure) down the Birdsville track to Port Augusta(ish) then basically from Adelaide to Melbourne to Sydney then up the coast back to home sweet home.

We have set aside 8 weeks for the trip with a view that it will take us 6 weeks but we may find areas where we want to stop for a while. most of the time I reckon will be spent in VIC as I've been told that there's deadset heaps to see.

Where was I? Right so basically my question is: We are going by ourselves (ie one vehicle & CT) and while I've done plenty of outback driving before, I wouldn't call much of it "remote" What are everyone's thoughts on doing the Birdsville section of the tour with only one vehicle? Is it stupid? Will it be easy as? etc etc?

Thanks!

Scoey.
