Russian truckie fans

Refuelling at a servo Sergei was talking to some truckies who invariably gather around the cars and ask questions as to the make and origin of the cars and the stupid drivers. He found out that the only topic on the truckies’ channel at the moment is the old cars travelling slowly up the road. They are holding a competition to see who can get the best picture of the two cars.

Ian has suggested B2B offers $100 for the best picture but so far the group has vetoed further progress on that suggestion, especially the passengers who sit on the passing side of the trucks, and don’t want any lingering by the trucks alongside us. It may not be good for health or long life.

Cheers Ian

On the Road

Editors note: Russian annual road toll is about 27,000. Let’s not push our luck.

A Russian comment from Tasha: The Russian driver must be able to do two things. Dodge holes. And turn aside from those who dodges holes.
