Let me know Golly. Happy to post it over to you.
I'd be so glad to see it taken on more of a jaunt over there than I could give it  :)

I never intended for it to be stuck with me for nearly a year... sorry guys...

What a shame it's all over here. Did it do a complete lap or did it stall? Lol

I got it across to Perth from Adelaide (and back again) and it's stalled a bit awaiting someone to take it on from Perth.

Oh well done , I seen the pics and they look great. Nice ride and set up. The Perth to the north would be tricky to find someone. Maybe once it reaches North Queensland I can take it south again , or north depending which way it's coming from hahah. Would you do it again or have you done similar BIG trips ?

Wonder how many memory cards the Ghost camera would need to do do a full lap around? ... That'd be a hell of a Vlog!  ;)

Depends on the size I suppose ... Possibly '42' ... But possibly not!  :laugh:

That was my first BIG trip on the GS. Would I do the trip again? Absolutely! Would I do it again Solo? Not bl--dy likely!
Great trip, great time of year, just lacked someone to share it with, but then again I had just been divorced and needed to get out and sort out my head after that ordeal (but that's another story).
I've been discussing doing it again with a mate, or at least the Border Run, and he's keen, so who knows...

I sure know "that " feeling! I dream one day to go on a big trip ... One day. I have just seen Charlie boorman release a trip http://www.compassexpeditions.com/tour/short-adventures/sydney-to-the-outback/

I don't have $6000 just do that hahahha

OK - this baton has been with me too long (probably my fault for not chasing it up :oops: ), and now I have no ride  :icon_sad:

Where's it going and to whom?  :dunno_black:

Get in touch with pave_spectre. He's been waiting since the relay started. Maybe he and Golly could do some riding with it together.

I did the Nullarbor Run from Adelaide to Perth and back a while ago.
At the time there wasn't a GS'er in Perth to hand it to, and I've been trying to hand it on to someone in WA ever since.
I believe Pave is now in WA, but last time we communicated, his bike was off the road.

Any takers? Please PM me  :)
