Ahhh okay, thanks. I've seen Maxtraxx used as a bridge across ditches too. I wonder if the Britpart ones would stand up to that.

Good work anyway. Look forward to seeing more Thumbs Up


I very much doubt they would, but they also only cost a fraction of the price or Maxtraxx

I was jumping the cruiser. Turns out he had a dodgy door switch, so the interior light stayed on and flattened the battery before it got dark. Lucky I had my jump leads!


Thanks again for the comments guys, makes the effort to film and edit worthwhile

Great films which brought back some memories. I climbed Mt Kenya in 1995, and there was a local dude in a battered (to say the least) SIII who told our climbing party that he would drive us the first bit up to the park gate for a small fee. But it was too muddy at that time, he was sliding everywhere, so he gave up pretty quickly and we had to hike the 20km or so up to the park gate. Fantastic place though.

Cracking videos.

Stunning scenery and views.

Agree on the right tyres and pressures, the 4 walked up it compared to the 3.

That’s so cool. Well as you could see they have put some effort into that first 20km of road and fixed it well. Got to say we were slightly disappointed by this, I had my wellies in the boot and everything!


The D3 was on ATR boots also, Maxxis I think. He wanted to have another go at that hill after I got up in one just to see if he could do it after all the ‘improvements’ we had made to the track. But because it was so narrow there was no where to swap the cars around. No changes to the track were made between the cruiser and my D4 though 8)

Awesome Vids ... I am so so so homesick now Sad

Will be down in Kenya at the end of May for the Rhino Charge - Would be good to catch up over a few beers if you are around?

Is DeRanged Rover your team name? I just watched the 2017 review of the last Charge and saw a team with that name.
