We have traveled from the East Coast of Australia from Innisfail straight across to the West Coast doing the Savannah Way and the Gibb River Road, to Broome!

Some people are right, what is all the hype about? We never let down our tyres, towed a Jayco Eagle Camper Trailer and never had one drama! It was a breeze.

Manning Gorge was my favourite, absolutely gorgeous.

 Jayco on Gibb River Road

That's an excellent photo of the falls at Manning Gorge.

Glad you had no trouble. That's rather unusual when people don't reduce tyre pressures.

Yes, great pic!

Letting down your tyres is for other road users as well as for yourself. Glad you had no punctures. Those who do not let down their tyres make a greater contribution to the formation of corrugations than those who do.

 Tyre Pressure & Hype
by: Anonymous

80% of people let their tyres down for a number of reasons, hopefully you didn't treat it as a freeway!
Manning Gorge is a beautiful spot, like the roads treat it with respect.
