Ice and trailers - Not a pretty mix......
« on: December 01, 2005, 11:45:44 »
After my recent trip to Wales. Jeremy decided to leave first down the hill.  Hit the ice and the RR on the back decided it wanted more off road and the disco had no choice but to follow.....

He was lucky, the other side of that disco was an icy cold river!!!

We then put my hyrbid at the top and the 8274 winch got him out with ease  :wink:

Amazingy, apart from the fence, no damage  :shock:

Err, sorry ... can you explain what's going on there in more detail please? :?  It looks to me like the road just ends and the disco has gone off the end?!

Whoops, sorry Gords pal

The road contines down the hill to the bridge at the bottom.  Behind me (i took the photo) is a very steep hill covered in ice.

Disco braked and then jack knifed pushing the disco through the fence.

I'll get some better pics tonight

I bet it was an "interesting" experience that, I guess, he's not eager to re-live :shock:

He was petrified!  Fair enough.  Shame really as he was quite all day, really shaken up.  

Still, no one was hurt, no damage and he's fine now.  Scary moment though!!!

He was very lucky to not rip the tow-bar off, or deform the chassis around the mounting points & stove in the side - 3/4 panel.

Oh & hurt himself as well :wink:

Still he's safe, if not a little 'brown trousered'
