dargo

Post by thunder039 » Sun Apr 14, 2013 5:54 pm

myself and my partner went up to dargo for the weekend in the victorian high country (only 1h10m from my house:twisted:)
had a great time did some exploring, went upto grant (historic town) and then continued up to talbotville. a really good dirt track to get there. nothing hard but very long and the road was rough and steep (used low range for the decent and accent) awesome area did a couple of river crossings which is always fun :grin: although the track has claimed another shock :mad: getting very sick of replacing these expensive weak items! dont have the money to go down the path of custom struts so am thinking about just buying bulk cheaper struts and get used to replacing them monthly ;-)

anyway here are some pic's

Nice one mate! I'm keen to get out to that area again. River levels and a not so good low range seem to be what holds me up in this area if the trip is not carefully planned though :(

Cheers
