Default New trip
Next october 8, not far from my town, Porto. Organized by our ACP (Automovel Club de Portugal), the equivalent here of the AA (Automobile Association).
Perhaps there will be more CR-V.

It will start in a small town called Amarante and then around the mountain, about 120km (80miles). Just one day, but we will go through areas usualy closed to the public. I think - and hope - it will be nice.

Default The list
Just received the list of all participants in this small off road drive - I'm the only CR-V.
We'll be 39 being 8 'light' like the CR-V (BMW, Audi, Fiat, Dacia, Freelander, Ford) and 31 'full' Land-Rover, Mitsubishi, Jeep, Suzuki, Toyota, Nissan and one Porsche.
It will be fun!

Yesterday was a great off road day! A trip around mountains is always a good way of spending time. No problems for my CR-V, of course. Well, there weren't real obstacles but some path climbing to get the 4wd system to work. A bit too rocky for my taste, not good for tyres and suspension.

Okay, the video links have been updated. Just, please, turn off the sound while watching the powerslide video. The soundtrack is really lame
