Terrific Mick,

Great to see the vehicles out and about. Not a bad day for it either.
The number plates and TAC signs really finish the vehicles off.

What is the DSN of your drip tray? :D

Cheers Mike,

Drip tray is furnished by Supacheap for $14.99 , built of plastic construction and available in black only.

Of course you could always grab a few trays from Maccas to achieve same 😊👍

Hi All,

Today I finally got around to mounting my Cooma 70th  and SASR regimental badges.

Thought I'd share.

Cheers ,

Mick

Click on the smalls to see the big version, it loads the right way up.

I do like that sasr badge, no doubt worth quite a few dollars.

We need to sort another Exercise Platypus. It was a great time.

Could we do Billy Goat track in the vic highlands? Lots of youtube videos on that one, and it appears to be similar conditions to our 2016 run.

thanks Ross

I think a Platypex 19 would be great :)

I reckon that's a great idea Ross.

You need to come up with a plan 👍

Thanks Laurie, I hope your neck isn't too stiff 😂

Take care boys

Google maps says billy goat bluff track is about 330km from downtown melbourne, takes 5hrs 45minutes.
The route goes east to about taralgon then north on C105 and then onto C486.
Going out to the north would go by Dargo, Myrlteford, Wangaratta. I think.
