    Have to say, you have hit number 1 for my 4wd \ outdoor content on the tube. This is now the standard. It was sidetracked, but the simplicity of your content is relaxing and informative.👌

      Wow mate, that’s huge. Little ol’ humble me is very thankful, that’s lovely to hear. Thanks for the kind words mate. Means a lot.

    Many people I know couldn't do what you do. They need to be close to a tv, a letterbox and a coffee shop. There is an art to going solo and just enjoying the smell, the colours and the sounds of the west aussie bush. You don't have to climb mountains, trek through gorges or battle the Canning stock route to get your kicks. You have nailed it. Peace and fresh air and an appreciation of an ancient land that has battled time and comes up fresh every day for us to visit and appreciate it.

      Thank you Geoff, that means a lot to hear. I feel for those folk that can’t turn to isolation of nature and strip it back a bit. You’re right, you don’t need to travel far or see every bucket list destination to really get the thrill of being remote in the bush. Appreciate your comment mate, thanks for the kind words.

    A lot of "fizz" in not just this upload Matt, but all your stuff. Your passion for being in the bush is riveting. It oozes out through the screen to the rest of us! The only channel I'm subbed to, where I've assigned a notification and can't wait till next video. (Apart from Grahams AusSolo, he needs to pull his finger out).
    Keep it up mate !

    Good content mate. There's a great book that goes into a fair bit of depth as to how the native trees shape and grow and how first nations changed the way they grew. You may like it its The greatest estate on earth by Bill Gummage. Mainly over east but it makes ya look at trees in a different light and explain why they are shaped as they are.

      @@westralianoffroad Given it started in what appeared cold conditions and cleared up into a clean run pretty quick, I'll agree with you that it's a "dodgy one." However, if they're all the same age then change them all out as the others are likely just to follow suit in no time.
      In case your don't know, they're not a difficult job to do if you're methodical; however, sometimes you'll get the odd one that can be a bugger to get out. the night before the job, a little penetrating oil around them can help, and certainly have it on hand as you undo them...remembering that too much force might end up snapping one in the head and make you use a hell of a lot of bad language.
