Nee, ons kry nog nie die 4 rat automatiese ratkas nie.

Hy het darem lekker gery by Groenkloof met sy manual ratkas.

Also some videos. I've not cut audio, which means you'll have to live with my kids getting excited. Also, whilst I walked the uphill on the first serious-ish obstacle and had 100% worked out how I wanted to drive, I made the mistake of asking the wife to give an indication of clearance on the left (at the rough bend). This seems to have been a go-ahead to back seat drive for the entire obstacle... :)

I'm a little unhappy with the output from the GoPro. I thought the quality would be a little better (well, it is excellent on my laptop) when uploaded to Youtube. I'll see if I can get them a little clearer.
