Thought I would go Back to the spot I went last weekend s/w of Bulla Bulling to walk in to find Nallerine rock which was marked on the map without tracks leading to it. The previos attempt to drive in had been unsuccessful and ended up with a sidewall stake. This time I thought I would try lower pressures so dropped the tyres to 28psi - big mistake , I didnt make it 10 minutes down the reasnably well formed track before the sound of rushing air called a halt. Damn it a brand new 285 dollar tyre with a 2cm sidewall gash. It took 4 worms and I guess it will have to be replaced.
Didnt find the rock either. Extensive foot search revealed there was no rock just a few granite pieces barely breaking the surface. I kept heading South and Met up with the Holland track near Agnes Soakand headed home stopping off at Victoria Rocks for some lunch.
Back to the rag tyres coz running radials is just to damn expensive
