Great War truck Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Yes i remember that. That must have been the Bournmouth to Bath run in about 1992 (doesn't he look young!). I think the journey was about 80 miles and the weather was changeable the whole way (which is not not much fun in an open top truck). With a top speed of 15 miles an hour it was a long day. We were first to leave and last to arrive. I think that this was the first big outing of that truck. We did it about 4 times over the following years in both Autocars. On one trip we were overtaken by an articulated truck who hit a massive puddle at about 50 miles an hour and we caught the whole splash. We all got soaked. There is definitely something to be said for cabs and windscreens you know. Tim (too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
