For a while Nicki has been experiementing with BBQ cooking and in particular ribs. This week she has an easy pork rib recipe to tackle at home or on the road. This week too we answer some listeners questions and bid farewell to the mighty Killarado- sad time. But excitingly we dive in to introducing our newest addition to the team, Helen Reddy.

This week we are following 20th century explorer Michael Terry. I urge you to read Michael Terry's autobiography, it is the story of a hard, adventurous life, much of it in northern and central Australian deserts. Born in 1899, Terry fought as a mechanic in World War 1 in a British armoured car brigade in a little known action in Russia. Gassed, he was invalided out and came to Western Australia in 1919 where, on a cattle station near Carnarvon, he discovered his love for the outback.

An explorer's routes is a tremendous way of having a goal and a focus, rather than just aimlessly wandering about the Outback, visiting the tourist hot-spots. Creating trips based around explorers and the pioneers has enabled us to gain a much fuller appreciation of the mighty Outback.

Researching stories of explorers & pioneers and attempting to follow their routes can be enormously satisfying. It certainly gets you off those beaten tracks. And it also leads to making fantastic contacts; people who add an extra dimension and bring another perspective to the journey.

Read the books and study the maps - search on-line - these are the Europeans who shaped our current status.

In our last of the Summer Series Extras, this week we prepare you for travelling, from tips, tricks, hacks to advice. Some simple maintenance before you hit the road, to advice on towing, weights and choosing a caravan.

We also some give an insight into some of our top coastal destinations to visit as well as off road adventures and trips to put on your bucket list. From Broome, Port Jackson to the Gibb River Road, Cape Tribulation and places in between.

Whether you travel full-time or you just like the occasional weekender, there are some things that we can all do to make it cheaper, easier and ultimately more enjoyable.

We have a collection of things that we’ve found that have made our adventure less of an adventure, and allowed us to focus on having fun.
