Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I had gone to the base of St. Thomas Mount today morning, and did some quick off-roading. ![]() The red and blue lines show the paths I took. Since I had gone by myself, could not take any "in-action" pics ![]() After uploading the pics in the computer, i realised that the angle of the picture made the slope look very ordinary. I should have taken another pic giving the side view, which would have given a better idea of the gradient involved. The first attempt I made at slow speed, and I had to shift to 4L to make it. The second attempt, with better momentum, and in 4H. |

| ![]() For you Gypsy owners only, what is a good all around tyre for a Gypsy e.g. good off and on road? And, what is a good tyre size for Gypsy e.g. if oversize what size tyre will not make steering difficult once the tyres have some wear on them? |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Sometime last month, I had been to the same spot of beach where i had done the off-roading in January. I was surprised by the change in the shoreline in just 2 months. I took some pics again to compare. One spot where my cousin stood to take the pics is completely under water now ![]() This is the pic taken in january ![]() The below pic is taken in march : the red spot is where my cousin would have stood to take the first pic. ![]() The blue line in below pic shows the waterline in January at the mouth of the backwaters. ![]() Last edited by Blue Thunder : 8th April 2008 at 10:28. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I think its about time you changed terrain,Bluethunder. Get to Kelambakkam and do the rock climbing. http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/4x4-of...8-chennai.html |
