They don't call Oscar "The Ghost" for nothing,Dalip.

Cru Jones · 20 December 2012, 06:44 PM

no matter what, i'm sure the GTG report will be epic, as usual when it comes to the oz folk. might it even reach the lofty "titanium" level of epic-ness?

Zed Homme · 27 December 2012, 01:02 AM

Sounds like a good time, get lots of pics. I was ready to come to WA but then broke my heel. I'm still sitting on all those miles though and will make it in 2013. No A380 please, I prefer to arrive alive.

mitchy · 27 December 2012, 03:26 AM

Sorry for the late reply, I'm def in!
Can't wait to catch up :)

Linzjnr · 30 December 2012, 11:11 PM

Andad · 2 January 2013, 06:41 PM

sleddog · 4 January 2013, 04:49 PM

A little over 3 hours before this one kicks off......

See you there!!

marathonmatt · 4 January 2013, 04:58 PM

See ya there.

marathonmatt · 5 January 2013, 11:07 AM

Great to meet everyone last night. Wish I could have stayed longer.

Best wishes to all, and safe travels for those heading out.

Attached a photo of the Marathon SAR, which Chris asked me about; aka the first half of my screen name.

She's a bit worse for wear from my motorbike crash, but she's still ticking. Mil-spec, and one of my favourites.

Cheers, all. Thanks again.

Matt

Did I read this correctly?

Was I flamed again for my lowly Marathon?

If so, it's not the first time, probably not the last...

With an informed and experienced grin, I can tell you that the pictured watch hit the street crystal down in a 60kph bike accident and survived (better than I did), and is still water tight in the absence of service. Care to suggest a Rolex, Patek, or other Swiss watch that could take that kind of a hit and still perform as designed? I seriously doubt it, though your response is welcomed.

All in good fun.
