Francis Birtles was one of the great original overlanders, an inspirational character whose overlanding achievements are the stuff of legend. Birtles made goggles for his dogs Wowser and Dinkum to protect their eyes as they accompanied him, hurtling along in an open top vehicle.
The goggled dog is the inspiration for our logo, paying homage to Birtles and his inspirational achievements.
