When Things Go Wrong
Quite liked the Italians sense of humour here (note despite the title there is nothing alarming/upsetting here):





and a worthwhile reminder of some of the forces at work in an off road recovery...

Was fixed with bolts but no spreader plate on the rear. No wonder it fell off so quickly. Thinking about the forces involved I'm surprised it didn't land a bit further away from the Fiat Shocked 110 D250 SE HT
110 USW SOLD
RRE HSE Dynamic Gone, wife killed it
VOLVO XC60 R Dynamic with some toys

Polaris RZR 900XP SOLD
