Tips From Tamworth #2: Mudding

Mud season is upon us, and here is a few pointers to get you through it.

A.) Look before you leap: you will undoubtedly submerge your leg in a soft spot. Wear the proper foot attire for the job (unlike me).

 

B.) Roads will fool you: Rain, sleep or snow, your car may journey along the same path flawlessly. In mud season , all bets are off:

 

Addendum #1. Rear wheel drive can be the enemy.

C.)  A friend in need, is a friend indeed: Trying to rock back and forth, like you might in snow, will only anger the mud gods. They take your action as a joke, and reward you with a chocolate milkshake….in your wheel well. It’s best to get a tow and save yourself the aggravation.

Addendum # 2: make fast friends with anyone with a tractor.

It’s easy here, because 50% of people have them

Happy Mudding
