Sunday 4th January 2015 chunksters birthday bash

[supersurf]

we started the day with our breakfast at the lord louis

awesome

then we headed out for some lanes

einstein picked a route today and it was great

plenty of water about





we took in some nice lanes today

nothing to difficult as we had a newbie riding with us

and chunkster had pulled his back yesterday and was feeling the pain so much today he even let the mrs take the wheel  

which im sure he wont be doing again soon as  now the roof is all dented and the front tyres had to be changed

 











we came across this jacked up jeep



and this tree with its very own aerial























the new dent done by mrs chunkster  









here we have mrs chunkster

ready to replace the punctured tyre



as usual we all stood and had a chat while mrs chunkster just got on with the job at hand



and the tyre was on in record time  

big thanks to all that came out today

its was a fun filled day with tyre changes and dents

till the next adventure

 Hats off to Mrs chunkster

My wife just rang from the moor having driven into a ditch on a ucr and blown a front wheel.

In her panic she forgot she had a spare

Then didn't know where she was when I suggested Britania Rescue

luckily BR got a fix from her phone to find her. Meaning I didn't have to move from my seat

So good on you Mrs Chunkster though I'm sure the boys helpped really, even if it was just advice!

[supersurf]

no advice needed mate

she has done this task many times now

it was quicker than an F1 tyre change

Hi all

What a nice day out, after my last trip it was nice not having to rebuild my truck. A quick wash and its ready to go again.

There was quite a bit of water about so we put on our special red wellies and in we went







As always we admired the beautiful Devon countryside along the way



Mrs Chunkster was pilot today and did a great job .....maybe she did have one small mishap but we wont mention that  





Our guests enjoyed the day...


up until someone stole some air....luckily that was all that leaked out eh ?  



Of course we faced this with our usual teamwork arrangement....Lee sitting down and Einstein nearly having a hernia



Lee was in charge of Health and Sillyness...




We covered a lot of miles of lanes thanks to Einstein and Lee's routing (top job ) and it was soon time to go home to bed.

I will be sorting some video when i get time 

Until next time.

Had a cracking day out. Even with a bad back i still managed the day as shotgun. I gave mrs chunks the day in the drivers seat she did very well. even argued with a tree.

Least now there is a dent on the truck which mrs chunks can be proud of.  













only a small hole







mrs chunks dent its a beauty



time to put the window back in.



good as new.











mrs chunks in control





checking out the winch bumper on the disco











happy laners





thanks for a great day out.

Hi all

As promised.... a short dashcam video of the day is now on my Youtube channel called  ''First one of the year'' (see Videos section for link  )

[supersurf]

great video mate

 

[Einstein]

A cracking start to what i hope will be a brilliant year of laning.
Thanks to Lee for putting up with me as navigator.

The days lineup












look at the clearance on this monster 




even with a bad back, chunkster still wanted to have a drive








whats this? A land rover with its bonnet up 


who's this? why its the one and only roadrottie, who was very eager to offer up the use of his high lift jack so that chunkster wouldnt have to get the kids out of the landy




it must be thirsty work using the jack 


























Oh no  mrs chunkster has put her first dent in the land rover 


where has the glass gone? 


here it is 


all fixed now












Oh no  A second tyre problem




Whilst roadrottie was changing his tyre, the lane pixies were stealing air from one of chunksters tyres 








we then called it a day so as not to tempt fate with the spare tyre



time to wash the mud off of the shogun!




thanks to all that came out
and roll on the next one!
