Tractor Run 18-05-2008
|
|
The view over the hedges not visible when driving a car.
|
|
|
The meeting point before the start.
|
|
|
The cleanest tractor ever. No really, ever.
|
|
|
Going where no man has gone before.
|
|
|
Pitstop.
|
|
|
The Doe 130. Two tractors into one. Strong in a field, a bit weaker at a junction. You can understand why if you think about it.
|
|
|
Farmers former best friend, meets farmers new best friend.
|
|
|
Water Buffalo's? Or a mozzarella farm?
|
|
|
One of the older tractors in the group. Runs on parafine. Struggled a bit uphill.
|
|
|
When is a tractor not a tractor?
|
|
|
When it turns into a field.
|
|
|
Clarkie and Farmer Boyce.
|
|
|
There are many ways of driving a tractor: this is the casual way.
|
|
|
And the standing way.
|
|
|
Another small country lane.
|
|
|
The stop in Whichford, where we met up with the Stow on the Wold vintage tractor club.
|
|
|
Clarkie going for a cold pint.
|
|
|
The oldest tractor.
|
|
|
Decorating farmer Boyce's tractor to make it look as it has done any work.
|
|
|
Close up of the Doe 130.
|
|
|
Maybe the oldest tractor, but certainly not the slowest.
|
|
|
In the woods.
|
|
|
The end.
|
|
|
Massey-Ferguson 135 was a popular tractor.
|
|
|
The trailer we sat on.
