Somewhere on the way to the arctic circle during summertime.... 

Expeditions are fun, but for safety reasons you should avoid travelling all by yourself. In this section, you can post your expedition plans in order to find travel buddies or simply ask more experienced drivers for advice.

I am planning to travel to Iceland in July 2009. It will be a 14 days trip
through the highlands (Myvatn-Askja-F26 Sprengisansdur-Tangafoss and - if there
is time left - F35). Arrival in Iceland is scheduled for the first week of July
2009. Whoever wants to join is welcome to do so - just contact me via
robert@go4x4.eu or answer to this post! As always, the best pics will be
published on Go4x4.eu after the trip. Until then, hit the trails!!
Robert  - booked the ferry...   |2008-12-03 12:52:59
Well, I finally booked the ferry, I will arrive in Iceland on july 9, 2009 and
return on july 23, 2009. If anyone is in Iceland during those 2 weeks and is
looking for a travel mate/second vehicle to cross the highlands, just get in
touch with me via this website!

Anyone of you out there using the ARB Bushmaster X-Jack Air Jack? What are your
experiences? How big is the hose, does it fit onto larger exhaust pipes as well?

You might check out http://www.fjcruiserforums.com/forums/4x4-off-r.... You can also use a 12V compressor to fill up the Air Jack in case the
hose doesn't fit. Apparently, it works just fine (don't have one
myself though...)

I am planning to drive my Land Rover Defender 110 XS to Dakar and then ship it
across to the Island of Sal, Cape Verde.

I'm no stranger to dessert driving (I
lived and worked in Saudi Arabia for 5 years) but Western Africa is all very
new. I've read Robert Köstingers (excellent) piece on his trip but could use
more info on vehicle set up etc.
Thanks.

You might check out http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/ and http://www.africa-overland.net and contact some people on the forum.

Also, for expert advice on
specific vehicle-related questions I recommend getting in touch with
Tom Sheppard via mail@desertwinds.co.uk (and reading his book
Vehicle-dependent expedition guide, see http://www.desertwinds.co.uk/expedition_guide_0...). Good luck with your expedition!
