    Well done fellas, the Madigan looks like a real slog in parts, those downhills looked very tough, the shrubs whacking you would add an annoying element too I bet.
    Interesting you say you wouldn't do it again, has this changed after getting home and reflecting? I know I feel that way often during a ride, but afterwards I flip and become keen again when the memory of the pain has faded.
    Cheers for the shoutout, and looking forward to the next video!

    • @keithjob
      @keithjob  11 месяцев назад +4

      Would I do it again? Hmmmm probably not the same way, i.e. unsupported. There's just too much gear and fuel to take. It would be a great ride with a backup 4wd.

      Glad you enjoyed it! The footage is great, especially if you can get his book and read it too. "Crossing The Dead Heart" (1946) CT Madigan.

    Darn commendable tackling those conditions on overloaded bikes. I imagine it would have been challenging even without the weight👍

    Hey mate enjoy your video as always. Did the Madigan couple of years ago supported on the DRZ good to know the fuel economy unsupported. Had 7200kms in the desert this winter including the Canning very overgrown. Well done.

    Great videos guys. We just crossed starting on the the 4th of September. Yep great fun on a fully loaded bike. You did not miss much seems the full Madigan is not available anymore from camp 16 (the blaze tree) east 😢. There is a road closed sign and it seems it will be closed for the foreseeable future even though we had permission from the Station to proceed. With the Hey river track and the diversion on the crossing it was 850 klm. Which tested my fuel range a bit. Well done tough little track enjoyed every minute of it.

    • @keithjob
      @keithjob  11 месяцев назад +1

      Nice one. What bikes did you do it on? Shame about the eastern half being closed!

      Thanks Rob. Yes hopefully others can see what they're in for. All the fuel stats at the end of the vid should be useful too.

    Love these videos! Keith, I noticed you seem to have a new Arai in this series. Im currently looking for goggles to wear over my glasses that fit the Arai opening and wont put downward pressure on my nose. What goggles are you using? I enjoy the content and i'm looking forward to whats next!

    • @keithjob
      @keithjob  11 месяцев назад +1

      Scott OTG. They fit well inside the Arai. And the visor can close most of the way too.

    Are you running a Zumo next to your Rino?

    • @keithjob
      @keithjob  10 месяцев назад

      In my opinion, the T7 looks great, if you're a strong and capable rider. For the rest of us the 500 works well due to less weight 😀
