What the Finke, Dad!? Ep4

Explicit content warning

09/22/20 • 63 min

When your Dad asks you to race the Tatts Finke Desert Race on Father's Day, you can hardly say no!
The notorious outback race runs from Alice Springs to the small township of Finke 230km away. After an 8km prologue to sort out starting positions, racers take on the desert all the way to Finke before turning around and racing back again on day two. Brutal!
Demi had moved to Adelaide for uni but her old man went out and bought a race quad, entered her into the race and flew her up. No training, no practice, no worries mate!

Living In Our 4WD For 7 Months - Ep3 Pt1

This week we sit down with my good mate Jack who has just returned from living in Canada for 2.5yrs, so we thought what better time share some of the stories from our 7 month road trip around SA, NT and WA.

We discuss how the trip came about and my crazy tight timeline of about 5 weeks before I wanted to leave. What we packed and modified on the car as well as a few tips we picked up on packing for an extended road trip. We discuss the route we took up through SA and NT and some of the amazing places we saw and people we met.
To keep up with Caitlyn and I and too see some more pics from our trip, follow @caitlyn.francis and @ben_cruisin on Instagram.

Gap Year Lap of Aus, Tayla & Hayden

Tayla and Hayden are a young couple from Brissy we met in the Kimberley region of WA. They were fresh out of high school on a gap year lap of Australia in Hayden’s old Hilux with a swag and a bunch of camping gear.
We chat over how the trip came about, their adventures up “the cape”, meeting us in the NW, adopting a lamb in SA and the car troubles along the way. From cardboard and tape on the rear window, zip ties holding the steering together and rope holding the suspension, they acquired some quality bush mechanic skills by the end but they really do prove that anyone on a budget can get out and have a hella good time around Aus!
