4x4RNE recently held a training day at Mafden Off Road site.
A major part of this training day was recovery winching, largely due to the nature of this site, plenty of mud!
This was a great opportunity for the less experienced drivers to learn the limitations of both their own ability and their motors capabilities........many thanks to Paul for organising this event and to Phil for his able assistance.
As a bonus, members also got he chance to see some quads being put through their paces and the feedback I have recieved has been quite favourable, thanks also to the quad riders who provided the "display" :D
I believe Phil "test rode" one of the quads and may be able to provide his views on these machines.
