Welcome to this crazy world of Unimogs?!
« on: January 08, 2016, 10:51:43 pm »
Hello to  all you 'mog heads!

I'm Hannah, Brian's better half, and very new to unimogs!

If you'd have asked me 6 months ago what a unimog was I wouldn't have had a clue!!

I have been brought up around motorbikes, and the only form of off-roading I knew of was either on two wheels or in my uncles old landy! Oh and my dad had an ex military long wheelbase landy years back, but that never saw muck!

Living in Australia for a year, showed me a different side of off-roading though, SAND?! low tyre pressure and my ute went better backwards than it did forwards - and no its not because i'm a female driver!!

Brian and Moose have showed me a whole new way of appreciating the world of off-roading via trialing and mogs - thank you!

That's all for now!

Hannah

PS. keep an eye out for merchandise and other exciting this happening with the cub in the near future!

And so the male to female members ratio officially becomes 341:1! :D

Just so you all know, Hannah is also the one that's organising most of the club meet :) (lets face it, it would never be happening if it was up to me to organise it)

And is also helping with ideas and designs for club merchandise, (currently on with mugs at the mo ;) )

So Hannah will play a big role within the club, so be nice ;)

Scrolling through the forum I spotted your profile picture and thought I'd seen your face before. Now I've figured out where from... Facebook!

Welcome to the forum. It's great to have someone here to take charge of Brian and get him moving on things like the club meet! It's probably safer to skip the girl driving a mog comments - you're probably better at it than me!

its about time someone kicked his num into gear definitely!

in the space of a week I have organised the meet and got some hoodies sorted!

as for the women driver comments,

brian crapped himself when he let me drive their sprinter  off road the other week, so ive not been let loose in a unimog yet!

it is probably for the best though, as I made the mistake of telling brian all the damaged I did to my ute when in Australia!
