Expect the unexpected in the desert. We revisit our second home at the Mt Dare Hotel. This time, we helped out the workshop for 2 weeks during the busy Finke Desert Race of 2024.
Did we fix your car and try to get you out of trouble? There were many more recoveries and broken vehicles that did not come through the workshop!
We experienced rainfall, closed roads, the first State of Origin game (just) and muddy broken cars.
The Mt Dare Hotel is in Outback South Australia on the western edge of the Simpson Desert. Experience it for yourself. Dare to Prepare.
