Enigma, you are in the bottom right photo and if you look carefully you can see my Dodge too. I'll always put up the big flag from now on because it makes it so much easier to find my Dodge on photo's.
well spotted! I can see you standing in the Dodge.
yep, its me on the Parabike riding in the opposite direction.
The sand in the corners was difficult on the bicycle...
The first one I didn't get through, the next 2 I managed going top speed and drifting all over cheered on by the public.

The event is called Tanks in Town, it takes place August bank holiday weekend and is based around the Belgium town of Mons. If you type Tanksintown (all one word) in Google theres racks of sites to check out. I took my M4 A4 Sherman over( its second trip) for the weekend, its awesome driveing about 25 miles around Mons in convoy with other tanks, halftracks, m8s etc. Fantastic time cant wait for next year

This looks like the Netherlands before WW2.
Our Armed Forces were undertrained, underequiped (Artillery from the 1880's), and unprepared because of budget cuts and the peacemovement.
We (Westsern Europe) are going to have every trained soldier when the sh*t hits the fan in a few decades if not earlier.
Its dispicable!
Here a poster for the men who want to castrate the British Army...pardon its French...

Hi Mate

Hi All
I just returned from the Belgian Ardennes for a commemorative march with 3 others from a re-enactmentgroup I belong to.
Lots of other re-enactment groups and civilians attended.
Althouh we hoped for cold and snow it was warm (6 degrees celsius).
I soon found out I was overdressed along with 1 of the others, wearing fur lined boots also turned out to be a bad decision.
Although there was no snow I did wear a 1943 snow pants and a white painted helmet.
The route consisted of 3 lenghts; 5, 15 and 20 KM (about 3, 9 and 13 Miles).
The 3 others of the group took the 5 KM route, I took the 20 KM one.
I joined a few Belgian re-enactors and buddy'd op with 1 of them, he marched quite fast which I like. At about 3/4 of the way I really began to feel my feet and some strain to my legs.
The boots had seperate insoles and 1 caused a blister at my heel.
The countryside is somewhat hilly not too steep though. For small parts we were led through the woods where re-enactors had set up display with vehicles and foxholes.
The last mile was a bit uneven with some loose rocks and it also started to rain a little.
Met some fellow re-enactors from the Netherlands and Great Brittain.
I met M8 greyhound, whislingwolf and a Greg (HMVF?), didn't see Joris though.
The last few hundered feet (downhill) we did running.
We were glad we completed the march.
Now as I write this I have sore feed and muscleaches in my calfs and thighs - ah well; nothing compared to the hardships the guys in 1944 must have endured.
I gained some extra RESPECT for the veterans after this!
On 17 Feb. next year antoher march will be held in La Gleize.
I heard that that one is very intense because the country side is much more steeper, also it will get very cold I think. Don't know if I will attend...
