Early Dawn Rise

Now I'm not one to turn down a chance to go off roading so I hooked up with Bob-down-under to head into the desert for a bit of fun around pink rock. I was really looking forward to this until Bob mentioned the start time.....6am and DragonMart Eppco!!

Still, off roading is off roading so up we got and off we went, and I have to admit, it was worth it for the breakfast/coffee on the dune watching the sun come up:


Although as I am sure my co-pilot will verify it was fairly chilly at that time in the morning even here in the sand pit. After coffee we headed off for a few dunes:

and we even let Brendan have a ride in the YBOD3.......only for him to get it VERY stuck:


But after recovering brendan from the truck (Prising his white knuckles off the steering wheel), and the truck from the dune we carried on. We made it across to pink rock


and on to a run up big red, which of the course the FJ handled with ease:

but wait, not everybody made it to the top of big red, did they Mr Head?
