Dutch club MBVP End of Year demo 2014

[trilliwilli]

This year I visited the MBVP at their end of the year demo, held in a party centre at saturday 20 december. This is a free demo for everybody and lots of the members come to show their models.

I didn't make much pictures, because I was handed a tranmitter twice to try it myself. First I did some hoisting with the Liebherr LTM 1400 from Richard.
Then I drove the old Mack from the Wish family. Both thanks for the awesome experience.

I hope you enjoy my pictures again!

Here the Mack I did some riding with. Grandpa Wish use to ride one of these Macks to Praque and back, when the Chech Slovakian country was stil behind the iron curtain. Very special.

Great set of pics William, looks to be a fantastic outing of many different talented people, thanks for posting them.

But not much for dirt people there though... not as popular in the Neitherlands or creates too much mess for an indoor show?

Hello Lil Giants (probably not your real name),

Working with dirt is a lot less popular here in Holland. You often see a corner of 2x2 meter with potting soil, which is very suited to use and not so damaging for the models, but on this particular meeting, there was not enough room.

This club is much more specialised in heavy transport, which is much more popular in Holland anyway.

The amount of large lowloaders and semi lowloaders is huge and often they are technically advanced, with multiple steering axles and height adjustment.

Also the cranes are very nice, and I am particular fan of cranes, so this is more my cup of tea. I was able to work with the large Liebherr crane, and it is very much fun to work with ( and a lot less messy then dirt ), so I don't mind the lack of dirtdiggers.

Wat is the attraction in digging dirt anyway?
