Sounds good, is this a GV easy trip or a Sierra easy trip?

Brad, Given your experiences so far in the GV you should be OK as long as you keep out of the Deep creeks!

Cheers Richard

I agree. I'm sure you will be fine Brad.

If anything - it will be a hard trip for me - due to all the kms on the freeway :|

I reckon Seonaid and I are in for this. We'll be in the road car too, so no 4WDing for us.

Steve.
