Thanks for the welcomes,
Just taken a trip through the Richterveld in the LBW Paj and seriously impressed with performance in that deep powder sand/dust between De Hoop and Richtersberg. Then went straight up to Baviaans Kloof for a week, finally got back to CT and took the shorty off the market, whats better than one Paj, - two Paj's.
