It appears that although there are quite a number of people registered on here that they don't have either a Haflinger or a Pinzgauer (or atleast ones that can be driven).
We had 5 Haflingers and 2 Pinzgauers turn up for the weekend of driving off road. There are plenty of routes which wouldn't test a family car too hard to routes that even 6 wheel Pinz's can get stuck in..... Two Hafi's soon pulled it back out, so you wouldn't get left with you vehicle in a mud hole wondering how you were going to get home.
If you brought a vehicle on a trailer, then even less reason not to turn up. I traveled some 400 miles over the weekend in Lurch and the biggest issue? A windscreen wiper that gained a mind of its own - an 8mm spanner out of the tool box soon sorted that.
As I have to drive there and back. I tend not to be too adventuress with the off roading in Lurch but that's not say he isn't put in to some sticky situations which require 4 wheel drive and the use of both diff locks!
I camped, but there are plenty of B & B's that could be used if you don't fancy a couple of nights in a tent or caravan - nobody has brought one to the last two meetings which i have attended, but then that would mean having to have two main vehicles, one to bring the Haflinger and one to bring the caravan, unless of course you are like the Elliott's who use their Pinzgauer ambulance and trailer.
So are we going to see any of you lot turn up at the next one?
