Hi Folks, We (me and a group of pals) are planning to take some carriers to Arnehm next year, at the moment 4 carriers plus several scout and armoured cars (space for 2 more carriers on one of our lowloaders - barry you keen ?). would this be a good event for a carrier get together on the continent ?
i have taken my carrier (puddle jumper) a couple of times now and boy did we get a good reception. |

Hello, sounds good, I have to do some work on the carrier, but it should go.
I think there are more people here in Holland who will come. Greetz Hendrik

I can see a plan comming together ! i am planning to be in Oosterbeek on Sunday 11th leaving on Monday 19th September. just doing the basic planning for the trip at the moment. it would be good to have a column of carriers on the race to the bridge route. In 2004 we drove 2 carriers from Endhoven to Oosterbeek over 3 days and then did all the parades for the rest of the week. it was something else to live off the carrier after a week in the drivers seat it felt just like driving my car, i think we covered 300 miles that week. last year we stayed at Oosterbeek all week and did over 200 miles on days out and about. probably do the same next year. heres a couple of photos from last year.

Shaun,
Count me in, I will be coming too!! I can bring a Carrier and maybe a Dingo. Dingo will need a driver hence the maybe. One of my friends might be interested in driving it. He has done so a couple of times. In 2009 we drove from Joe's bridge to Nijmegen in 5 days. Camping in period tents. Great fun. Cheers,
