Gee Member 131 Member For: 16y 2m 12d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 13/03/11 10:00 PM Share Posted 13/03/11 10:00 PM I was up there two weeks ago and know one mesh over there grills. There roads where in good condition with very little traffic and if you caught a local they would pull over when they could. There was roadworks between Falls creeks and Mt Beauty.

But I'm thinking we probably won't in the Alpine areas. Maybe a different story on the lower lying ground around Euroa and Benalla unless anybody would like to comment on that (anyone who does the Melbourne Sydney route often?). I may buy a roll of soft mesh and bring it along to share out justin case.

But I reckon, once you get into the mountains - should be okay Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72278-vic-alpine-cruise-2011/page/12/#findComment-1089410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
