Buggy Safari

nocando - 21-5-2010 at 03:03 PM

Has anybody done the spring buggy safari starting at Ivanpah Buggy Expo and travelling cross the country to Georgia for Jibe and then picking up what other get togethers there are.

Am planning a visit for 2011 and am doing my homework now.

Is 6k to dear for 60 days camper hire

Any info greatly appreciated

I plan on doing exactly that in 2011! Rv rental is very dear when considering travel time, fuel, etc so it looks as though I'm going to fly and rent cars. Found some fair prices on kayak. 2012 may hold a holiday to Aus...hotels will be cheap there...most of my family lives there :thumbup:

sounds like a great plan...

Hey mougl, for 2012 keep October free for there is a big buggy get together at a place called Anna Bay which is on northern tip of Stockton Beach just north of Newcastle

There is a get together there next weekend which I am going to, even guys from Queensland are coming down, will post some pics up afterwards

Should come now AUD has dropped from 93c US to82c US

I wish I could come now...work disagrees with that though. When I do go, I'll be hitting bris and melb primarily (family) but I'm leaving some time open for a few other choice places as well :thumbup:

Kiting community is pretty good, buggy nuts from melbourne to darwin, so you wont be short of flying partners.
