Getting bored of the city, need to escape for the night. Riding south to Nannup following Perth’s newest 4wd track, the Mundal track, was the kind of adventure I needed. Not everything went to plan but I had such a good time. I met some kind people on my journey, all who went out of their way for me, and I can’t thank enough! Hope u enjoy! Please like & subscribe.

The Fawcett Track follows the path taken by Captain Theo Fawcett, who blazed a trail through the forest in the 1800’s. Much of it runs along old rail embankments, where trains once hauled timber from the forests. He was twice acting resident magistrate for the Murray district and he was also the only brandy distiller in Western Australia. *Than, Sorry for the spelling mistake.

    There were numerous allied airstrips and clandestine bases run by Australia and the USA in WA and the NT during WW-II, some well-known, others not. The Japanese bombed many during the war. One prominent one remains today, "Pine Gap" near Alice Springs, very hush hush on what that base gets up to. There is also North West Cape military facility near Carnarvon WA I think. Great video, and a good practice area for you to warm up for the 2025 Dakar Rally and give Toby Price a hand!😉

There were a bunch of them, no matter how hard the Japanese reconnaissance flights tried they could never find Corunna downs, hence the name the invisible airfield. The base in the north west is just out side of Exmouth, they call it the Harold holt I believe. Hahaha would probs end up getting shot! Thankyou for the compliment!
