First video in quite a while. Mainly due to the Samurai being in the garage for so long.
A bit of a quick knock together, but hopefully okay.
Enjoy.

It was a really good day.
Partly due to not having been to a P&P for ages, but also how well the Samurai worked.
The bit from 5:00 is my son Kartboy going up quite a twisty bit, and showing how tricky it was. Then mine just tootled up with no fuss. Proper chuffed.
The hill at 8:00 was a breeze in the Samurai, but you will then see the SWB Defender trying. He and a few of his mates in the background tried, tried and tried to get up to no avail. (A LWB did get up). So I popped round and did it again
It might be very different the next time I go to Cowm as that is quite rocky, and I do have concerns over the shackle fangs digging in.
In mud though, I was more than happy.
Mmmmm, what can I do to it next?
Er, ENJOY IT, for a while at least.

Good to see the little SJ showing the rest how it's done!
