Isn't life funny...we are a family of 5 with 3 young kids (9,8,1). The middle child is autistic and oh my god does that make life so much more of a challenge. I was born in Kadina and still consider it as my family's roots. I love motorbikes and have test ridden bikes from your dealership (a long time ago). I have chosen to buy a Mitsubishi Triton (MQ GLS being the plan) to be our tow vehicle for when we start our life on the road sometime in the first half of next year. Needless to say, I've subscribed. I was meant to see this video. We currently live inland from Port Douglas and have many acres of land all around, if you get this way, your welcome. Oh, and I'm VERY interested in the new Himalayan 450 (or 452)..but also the CFMoto 450MT. Cheers, Baz.

LOVE our Triton. Extremely capable off-road regardless of what the Toyota sheep bahhhhh.🤣 Ours has already done The Creb Track (including Bobs hill), Bloomfield, Tele Track (without chicken tracks) Old Coach Road. Just got back from 7760km trip to Victoria High Country and Fraser Island on our way home. Looking forward to seeing how the Maverick goes as we are looking to move into a hybrid in the next year or two and it’s high on our purchase list. Good luck guys and have a ball.

Hi guys. As a carer of ASD kids in the foster care system I find them the most amazing kids challenging but extremely rewarding. When we started with our first autistic child I had to google autism to find out what it was so we are very much self taught on what works. After watching your first video can’t wait to see the rest of them . Don’t forget to pack your patience for your travels. Be safe out there.😮

Great intro team, looking forward to the updates as you travel! We share a lot of world experiences with you (not to mention the flying 🤔) as eldest #1 is neuro divergent exactly as you describe - he’s 16 now. We have done many camping trips from an early age and found that the continual change in environment was the ongoing stimulation needed to keep the wheels on the rails most of the time! Safe travels, enjoy the adventure…
