Some off roading and video.(now with second video)

Post by jed the spread »

Jake, Andrew, Russel and I did a little off roading well it was 4 days really in Wales a week or so ago and i thought some may be interested. Of course we never took any video of the really hard bits because no one had any hands free. Here is the first one while i do the second, Enjoy :mrgreen:

Judging by this morning, the Wagtail site would be a very different proposition in the wet... apparently even the farmer can't get to some of those fields in winter, without a tracked vehicle.

Fantastic Video. The shot of Russell having a dump made me laugh. Loved the roof tent on the Doka.
Cheers

I notice that some extruded roof racks are appearing on various syncros. What size and manufacture are they?
