Buggy Filth

Anyone guilty of kiting no matter what!? We had some decent wind and in desperate need of a fix so went out in spite of the field being a tad muddy. All was going well until I went full pelt through what looked like a bit of surface water. Turned out to be a mahoosive muddle (mud puddle!) which was about a foot deeper than it looked!!! Look at the state of the buggy...Popeye would be horrified. I'll be polishing this afternoon :duh:

Steve she was picking me up. You should have seen her face when she turned up to find me standing there in just my boxers in 4 degrees. Not a pretty sight!
