HI EVERYBODY,

I towed my type 3 d/c from nelspruit to Mokopane with a homebuild a frame. That without any problems, and behind a 1300 bantam. Over 350 km. HOW DARING IS THAT?

Sorry no pics taken during that trip. There was one incident on that trip though, come to think of it.
When approaching a 90 degree turn in Belfast, I was a little too fast. Have anyone ever see a Bantam with a kombi on tow do a tandem drift on a city street? :D. The wife nearly :bn: herself, but the advanced driving course i did 2 weeks prior paid off. Must admit, went a little slower after that :mrgreen:
