oddballrovers Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 After almost 700km the Polish Boarder is close. Last propper meal ( schnitsel) before we go on survival food. Fueling up before the "race" not that it is a race but for us it is 300km of roadbook on unpaved roads an exelent way to train building speed up going by roadbook. Uhu next morning !!! not strange that it was a bit cold to slep in the van -5 during the night. We are on the move first small water crossing. there will be meny more on the move. Crossing is no prob with a good recon to avoid the "traps" with to deep water. Small pudle to be crossed co pilot quick figured to attach rope to the guy in front so the mud splassing is minimised.

oddballrovers Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 More muddy punches to do. Eventhough a Snorkle fitted what does it help when you lean on it adainst the bank watch the black mud on the righthand side on the windscreen ups ups no good as you will see below. White smoke!! we are runing on water, bugger bugger...... Good, one are running K&N, a paper filter would newer have survived this, after two hours digging mud out and a quick wash for the filter in one off the Trangia pots we are ready to go again. Due to the properties off the K&N only a bit off water got through, it saved the engine Next day a bit more fetling to keep it going We came to have a good time and ended in fourth place in our class A Adventure Jannik and Peter got third so it does not take a tricked up coiler to make good results the old leafers does still hang in. One of our best trips ever... Kind regards Lasse (co pilot and pictures) & Ole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elbekko Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 It was a great event and it was very nice meeting you Ole! Just so you know, I was the co driver in Mouse I sadly didn't bring my camera in the car, so my only pictures are of the campsite. Also, that big puddle you see Mouse going through in the pictures... it's even deeper in the middle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oddballrovers Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 Looks like a good old little competition Ole Yes it was a very good time, we do not take it as much as competition as we do only do the driving part off it not all the "boyscout" tasks ie rappelling cooking food for marchals and so on, but it is a great nature to explore there are so many beautiful places to watch while one is on the move and the intensity at nigth time while doing punches in the dark woods is breathaking. See you soon Cheers Ole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
