We had a great time. This was the IX Iberico (meeting with Land Rovers from Portugal and Spain), this time in Valdilecha (Madrid).
Other than the usual eating, drinking, laughing and having fun, we did a little route around the region, very easy.
This is the camping site from the top of a near-by hill where the swimming pool and showers were
Camp site, the Alcaraz/Albacete crew:
Creative cooking, since no fire is allowed electric grill works:
Kind of funny, is that a very compact Land Rover?
Very cool LR truck
A general view of the circuit:
I am in love, this thing is based on a Discovery 200 Tdi:
The truck doing it's thing rescuing its brother after braking the front drive shaft:
Here you can see Gus holding the broken part.
The Trophy competition was a lot of fun, following the Camel Trophy spirit, this first incline already broke the truck above:
And here it was a *very* close call, it almost tipped all the way down, rolling, a very scary moment that ended up in just that:
Check out the Defender on the background
Here they had to pass around a tire from the top vehicle to the bottom one and back.
Another view of the in-progress competition
Here, it has a spring...
after the pool, no spring... TADAAAAA!!!
Fishing out the spring, although for now just an end cap for the rear fender
Look how the Disco II makes it look easy...
And this Defender, doing its thing too
Rangie wants a piece of the action
One of the pools
And now with a series...
This lightweight really enjoyed the other pool
Going up!
This was a very steep and loose trail up, it made for some spectacular pictures...
