We always carry two LPG bottles when we travel overland. One bottle for cooking and the second for lighting. In the early days I used to strap the bottles to the top of the roof rack using a ratchet strap.

Due to age my 80's dust sealing, especially at the back, was pretty bad. During one of my earlier trips the load at the back of the wagon was packed with thick layers of dust. Most of this was coming through

...at times not such a bad idea :)

It's been a while since we took the fourby out, so took a drive out to the Adelaide Hills area for a Sunday afternoon drive. During the drive we came across a a new friend. We had to stop and spend some

During our recent outback overlanding trip I discovered just how much my wife hated the swag I had bought. To be fair, she was not being fussy, the swag was a bit too small for the two of us, even though

In this video series I invite you to come along with me on the Outback loop (as I like to call it). This was a nine day off-road trip I recently took with my wife here in South Australia. In the first

Every time I travel outback I try to bring back (without breaking the law or harming the environment) a few souvenirs. It is quite sentimental to me as these serve as a trip memoir. They become great talking

My wife and I recently returned from a nine day outback trip. We saw some amazing ancient landscapes, visited a Mad Max site ,got nostalgic about a rail route that once operated close to 100 years and

DICEROS - our 80 series was the perfect platform for me to build a 4x4 based on the touring needs of my self and my wife. Most of the time we travel alone, so we need to be completely self-sufficient.

I posted an intro about my travels when I first started my Steemit account. However, during my recent trip into the Central Australian Outback I felt it was time to do a video intro. It was the perfect

Solar power is essential when overlanding. This helps in keeping our second battery charged, helping in running all the accessories we have come to depend on when travelling outback. Solar is even more

My wife & I just got back from spending nine days in the Central Australian outback and what an amazing trip it was. Despite the countless number of times we have been to the outback, each time it
