Default New Years Drive Challenge 2023

Hi All

Well it's that time of the year again, with New Years Day 2023 this Sunday I would like to issue a challenge. How many of us can take our CMPs or other Historical Military Vehicle for a New Years Day drive.

I think I first made this challenge in 2014, but taking one of my CMPs for a start the year drive is my way of starting the year. It has been fun to read about, or see videos of other of our MLU families adventures. Some year's all three of my CMPs agreed come out in the cold other years only one would meet the challenge and start.

This year I not sure I'll be able to meet challenge, but will give it a try.

Seasons Greetings and Happy New Years to all.

Cheers Phil

Awesome Harry! Great to see a little bit of your working space and great to see the C60L and Lynx on the move.

Default In accordance with Phil's Tradition......

We had a good load of snow a week before Xmas,,,,, then rain.....then a 3 day blizzard on the Xmas weekend.....followed by warm weather and 3 days of rain...... that all we got left.....not even deep enough to drag the axle pumpkin.......... a week ago we would not have been able to drive in that field.

All the Best from Grant and I.........
