The Elephant Ride is this weekend for anyone wanting to give Guanella a try   Lol

I'm kinda glad I have to work - the bald Karoos on the Husqvarna would not get me far.

I'll be happy to take the Husky out for you since you have to work  

Was not familiar with the Elephant Ride though - sounds like it would be a lot more fun on a 2wd Ural  Lol
