No roads Crap you must be oldNico-MAD wrote: ↑Fri Nov 30, 2018 6:45 amI've only been back in 4X4ing fir the last 4 years, Although we had 4X4's since around 20 years of age. But those days it was more for towing and launching the ski-boat. Then I worked for Pipelines in the 90's and was based in Vryheid. We drove the line from Empangeni to Standerton on a regulare basis. There was no roads and at times we had to build roads and recover each other. We had no formal training and had to learn the hard way. That was the best time of my life.
