    Loving your channel!! New subscriber here, stumbled on a video of yours when I was looking up high country videos. Been hooked ever since and watching them all one by one 🙌🏻 it’s good just to watch the simplicity of it and I have to say given me a lot more inspiration to get just get out there and explore the high country! I just moved to Canberra not long ago and have a 1HDT 80 series and have been hesitant on hitting the VHC as I’m not twin locked yet.. but watching your videos is pushing more and more! Awesome content mate, thanks for sharing it with us all💪🏻

    • @aguyandhistroopy
      @aguyandhistroopy  Год назад +1

      Thanks Matt for the Sub, it greatly appreciated, I reckon you might of been number 1800. 👍🏼
      You don’t need to be locked to hit the VHC, just pick your tracks ( there are plenty of them ) and the right weather you will see 90 percent of it with the 80, more then capable.
      You should look up Outdoors CBR, a Canberra based YT channel, boys go alright. Do a lot of tracks to the south of there plus some VHC, could give you some ideas.
      Once again thanks mate for your support. 👍🏼

      Okay I’m stoked to hear that, I always had that lingering thought I’d atleast need a rear locker.. my 80 is an all time 4WD too so that should help.. but that’s good to know I can get out there in the right weather. I’ll just have to step up my game for the snow trips😂
      Yea I’ve watched a few of their videos they seem like a cluey bunch of blokes too. I’d love to do a run that starts in the Brindabella all the way into VHC.. I did the Geehi hut run and a bit of exploring around there a few years ago, Tom groggin crossing was shut unfortunately but I can’t wait to get back and check it all out..
      Thanks for getting back to me too mate I really appreciate it! Hell of a lot more motivated to get out there now, certainly not as intimidated by it now either and put some gravel in my travels.
