Geting the brakes sorted this weekend ready for the trip don't need them seizing on and boiling the fluid and failing again (a few hairy moments this week).
Other jobs now done 2" lift, snorkel fitted and radiator flushed so no overheating worries.

New sleeping bag sorted and a new carp fishing bed so sleeping should be no problem with a few night caps down the neck :drink: .

Can't wait, really looking forward to this trip to test my driving ability and the Frontera just need to get a decent tent and I'm rearing to go .
I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

I can't wait even more, that lane looks fun and the views ain't too bad either, like the dam/ big wall at the end. :D
I do think the bikers have balls of steel (or slightly thick) to plough through the puddles without knowing how deep it is or if it's got a rut in the middle.
If it ain't broke, fix it before it does!! You know it will!!
