Hotham 2012
ah so its roughly about the same as from sydney to thredbo ...
The drive from Syd/Gong to Perisher/Thredbo is heaaaaaaaaaaaaps better.
Cruising highway up till carpark pretty much.
In mexico we have to drive up windy mountains the last bit of the trip (hell at Hotham the car park is at a higher altitude then the terrain you ride)
