Better to live in, and travel through, an inclusive world than an exclusive one, even though some folk talk in a strange way, are a different colour, eat funny things(often without a knife and fork!), wear the strangest clothes, live life to a different rhythm with different priorities and outlooks. It seems that some even have two too many wheels to fit in to what some would deem normal, though if you are a committed unicyclist or a rambler just think of the vast population you can get on your high horse about, that's providing you can manage to extricate your head from your arse.

It's easy to interpret usless information, ignore it..

Guess I'm not one for watching the world go by from the comfort of an air con cabin...


Happy Holidays...

whats the say the same info from a 2 wheel friend wouldn't be the same? people's perception of terrain is all the same no matter what they drive/ride.

I didn't realise there was so much dislike for 4wd. I will think long and hard from now on on offering water/beer or kit lifts.

thanks for opening my eyes.

ps. some of us dont have air con.

Hi Grifdowg,

Please don't be disappointed !!!!! If you read all of the above posts carefully you'll see there is NO dislike of 4WD at all, only the this Taxi caricature is speaking ill of 4Wders! All others are defending the Hubb as a platform for all independent travellers, 4 wheel, 2 wheel, 1 wheel or what ever wheels!


cheers,
Noel

Amazingly enough, it's a place for motorcycles, 4X4s and bicycles:thumbup1:. So if you don't want this kind of site..........!
Maybe it's only you who thinks HU has "shite to wade through"? :nono:
