Hi all,
As two GGN's we are about to hit the road for our loop of this great country, but in our trial runs over the last 3 months we have not found any other like minded people.
Please don't get me wrong, we have meet some fantastic people and had some really great times, but it would be nice to know there are some more of us out there, just to socialise and exchange stories etc.
Leaving
Melbourne end of Jan. and heading up the east coast.

guys this is no laughing matter, we established some time ago that toyota buyers are one way inclined and nissan buyers the other. Have you ever noticed the dealerships are often next door, this is so when a man in a fluro shirt walks into the nissan
shop, the sales man can helpfully show him accross the road to the IFS depot.

Hey Chris,
I'd firstly get another Toyota before you go pulling anyone off/out etc as that little piece of crap in your rig profile is not going to pull anyone off ;)) since the 4by has been flogged

I reckon they would make life interesting around the camp fire at

You'll find the most enjoyable way of seeing this vast country is by following the "tan track"...... You will find lots of opportunities to practise your ball handling skills as long as you don't stuck in a crack somewhere in un-chartered territory.
If you do happen to get stuck I'm not sure what you're gunna do as I don't suppose you'd be too interested in another driver giving you a snatch.
Going around Oz, try to stay in the internal route.
If all else fails, just pull over on the side of the road and start a mass debate.....that should get you a few friends who will PULL up and have a go at joining in with you.
