Default We're Back

Another Champ Camp successfully completed.
15 Champs, 1 Humber FV1601, 1 Land Rover 101 took part, and as one can imagine with this amount of British Engineering covering these sort of distances (we did 1200 miles in 10 days in ours) the list of mechanical faults would be to big to list, but I will do my best: one flat tyre, one stuffed battery, two loose wheels. Might I add I am not the only Champ owner
that was impressed (shall we say Surprised?) by the brevity of the list.
Along the way we had a good look at an M151 Mutt, did some road miles in a Sabre, drove a Steam Traction Engine, found the first dam that the Tasmanians failed to finish (circa 1845), watched wombats gambol, got tangled up in the Targa Rally,and feasted at every Local Bakery we passed by.
Rich.
