Ep 57 | Part 3 Broken Engine in the Simpson Desert | 4WD Across Australia
- 7 yıl önce
E57 Weekly Vlog of Life in a Nutshell travels.
Continuing on the motorcycle tour across Australia, east coast to west coast, we leave Birdsville and head into the desert to check out the famous Big Red sand dune. The riders all have a go at getting to the top.
The truck heads off over the first sand dune and the beginning of many others. Disaster strikes when the engine mounts give way after dropping into a massive ‘wombat’ hole on the track! The fan slams into the radiator and we end up with a gaping hole and a very wobbly engine! It’s slow going from then on until we can make repairs.
Gradually the riders begin to find their feet on the testing sand dunes of the mighty Simpson Desert.
We enjoy a couple of isolated bush camps with breathtaking views and scenery.
We hope you enjoying traveling along with us both as we share many of the remotest and often unseen areas of the Australian Outback with you all.
Thank you all so much for watching.
