Adventure Overland this weekend

Post by ChrisClemson » Fri Sep 21, 2018 6:58 am

Hi guys!
Anyone going to this at the weekend? https://adventure-overland-show.com/
Sadly we won't be staying, but we will be going on Saturday for the day, and probably not bringing the truck either as we don't really have time.

We can't go, I don't really want to go a long distance in the Gaz until I have worked out what the gearbox issue is caused by and I haven't had time to look at it

In spite of the weather it was a good show. The band on Friday night was really good. I didn't spot any other Russian gear there this time. Sorry I didn't see your post Chris or I'd have looked out for you. I particularly smiled at the Bedford army truck with a shed on the back. The guy has been living in it for about 8 months.
Hope we get a few more next time.
The GAZ 66 behaved all the way there and back. The new tyres and exhaust have made a difference. Just had a rogue passenger windscreen wiper which slips on the spindle however much I tighten it. I feel a mod coming on 😀
Hope to see you soon.
Cheers. John

That Bedford was awesome! We've started following them on Instagram. Some really creative ideas.
I tried to find you on Saturday John but couldn't, found the GAZ easy enough though :)
