Mate, I'd say PM Marty. He seems to make this trip on a regular basis.

Also, what would you take on a round trip to Halls Gap? Syndey isn't that much further.

hell yeah!!! i think i have a photo somewhere at home, but i had a "dodgy bros" gearlever break on me just inside the lower booth on the nasho,The past owner lost the broken bit of lever and instead forced in/WEDGED in a garden quality zinc self tapping bolt and put the rubber over the top of it.

Well i used 6 small sized zipties to put the lever on and i was able to make it all the way home. mind you i did the entire natio in third (didnt stop me still doing over 90km/h, love the tall gearing

and managed to split traffic enough that i only stopped about three times in the 20km on the way home.

definately gotta try and find that photo.
