Not nosey at all, ansi!

Tho we have to be careful travelling in convoy and making our selves stand out so some planning will be needed.
It also depends on our intentions.
Ifwe are sticking to roads then it'll be ok.

Guys, just one word of advise, be carefull where you go in gozo, you might find the pigs waiting at the boat if some one reports you. Stick to known tracks and do not venture into new places, avoid getting lost and ending in someones field or farm especially if in convoy.

For the rest enjoy it, if you pick the right routes, gozo can be a days fun out with great views and nice offroad tracks, take care!

you need a map even a tourist map is enough...................plenty of places to go in gozo. enough to make the landrover into pieces.

it is even fun if you go round the island swiming in different bays.

for offroad emmmmmmmmm i do not offroad:p but thereare many tracks for sure

I've been telling you to swap the engine with mine Olo.....mine only stopped without diesel and with a busted t-belt!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D


Anyway, I'll drop off some time this week dude and check it out myself......I just ask a BIG favour from you...........just do as you're told by the more experienced ones......or otherwise you're just going to push the solution even further. Not that I have anything against trying things out and doing mistakes but you do not afford any more trouble right now.

You just wait, and we'll help!!!
