    Greeting from Wagga Wagga, Australia

    Hello all.

    Just a quick intro of myself. I am new to hanging and have converted from the tent so that I can enjoy my motorcycle touring a tad better.
    The hammock is easier to set up and needs no level ground and takes up way less room in the saddlebags.
    What can I say, I converted.

    Welcome to the forums from Indiana! I love the names of Australian places - much more colorful than what we have in the USA.
    I got in a fight one time with a really big guy, and he said, "I'm going to mop the floor with your face." I said, "You'll be sorry." He said, "Oh, yeah? Why?" I said, "Well, you won't be able to get into the corners very well."

    Welcome! I spent two weeks in Australia once, I was in Canberra. I loved it there, it was gorgeous.

    ahhhh Canberra.... if you were lucky you would of seen the native big-eared Abbott marsupial that's now residing there.......you may have also seen the big beaked Gillard goose...tho I think its now extinct (or should be).
    Canberra was renouned for the Ruddfish.....famous for amazing comebacks and flip-flopping on policies more than a fish on a filleting table.

    you wouldn't go too far looking for these beasts of Oz.... just point your camera and they will run to you so they can get their faces in the news.
    Would sure love to introduce them to hanging......but not of the hammock kind...lol
