Hey guys,
so a few of my friends and i are planning to go down to esperance next week. As much as i would of loved to take the skyline for a blast down there... it wasnt practical enough, so we taking a 2007 honda civic instead... This also means that standard ULP is ok to use...
I was just wondering who here has made the trip? Hows the petrol stations on the way down?
We will be taking Albany hwy then onto Robinson road then down great southern hwy.. then into esperance...
Pondering if we should take 2x 10 litre jerry cans with us just incase?? We will be leaving early morning so im sure petrols stations will defiently be open... just the matter of fact if they exist down those roads!!
Any advice would be great guys!
Cheers,
Brendan

Greets man.
There's heaps of places for fuel down that way. You can fill the fuel cans for insurance but you won't have an issue if you stop at the major towns to fuel up.
You can take Albany hwy, through Robinson Rd to Great Southern Hwy via Woodanilling with no issues.
After Broomehill, take the Broomehill-Gnowangerup Rd to Gnowangerup, then hit the Gnowangerup-Jerramungup Rd to Jerramungup. After that it's along the South Coast Hwy to Esperance.
Another way you can go is Via Brookton Hwy to Corrigin, Lake Grace, Lake King, Ravensthorpe to Esperance.

Yes mate, I've done many different trips all over Oz.

It's the same as everywhere you go. You can hit a kanga in the Mundaring hills as evidenced by the two different occasions where one ran out in front of me on the Twisted Sister map last week.
Just keep an eye out, especially at night.[/quote]
