Land Rover Rotmell

Just a day out on the trails

Beast From The East

Th weather warnings were right. We got hit with snow two weeks ago.

What did that mean for me...... Well after the storms cleared, skiing of course. 

In the woods where I normally run I got to go out for a ski instead. It was great to get on the old telemark skis which must be going on for 25 years old. Still going strong although they could do with a little waxing.


As it turned out I was already on holiday the week of the bad snow so didn't have to get to work. When it was time to go back a winter wonderland greeted me.

Icicles from the rocks and snow hanging from the trees made for some great driving.

Lovely Dowally Loch.

The inevitable did happen though and cars slipped off the tracks.

No problems though. Just a little thinking and planning and out it came.

Spain Trip

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of heading over to LRE Les Comes in Catalonia Spain for some dry dusty and rocky driving. We had a great couple of days with 7 of the team from LRE Scotland. The driving included navigational tests and a tricky guided sections. Lots of fun and learned a bit more as well. Here are some of the highlights.

New Discovery

This afternoon was mostly spent playing in the woods with this awesome vehicle.!

Passed

I passed my Lead Instructor Assessment at Land Rover Experience yesterday. Two months of hard work. Late nights studying and researching. Training and learning new skills.
The pressure was on yesterday but it all went smoothly.
I'm looking forward to what is next. The learning will not stop!
