Hi Gang.
Been a while.
How you all dealing with this shitty Covid thing?
I’ve been keeping busy, with my new German side car!
What do you think?
Stay safe, everyone.

Aye Soggz

We just got to sit this bloody virus out.

A boxer in a car beside a horizontal inline bike,  don't see that often.

Have wondered a bit about the story behind a name like Soggz?

Well done Soggz, can be piloted from motorbike or hack, smartly done. ;)
We're going about a normal routine here in Montana, albeit having to put on mandatory masks in public establishments.
Cheers

Don't see many buses anymore, fewer campers.  Way back had a Combi, it was perfect, could put the dogs in the backseat and firewood in the bed.  Being retired Covid hasn't effected us too much, doing lots of bicycling.

Had a '66 Westphalia in the 70's.  Super fun to drive, but was the definition of underpowered.  Just had to kick back and light up a cigarette at the start of every hill.  There were hills I had to avoid because I ran out of first gear before the top.

Won a bet once that a Combi is basically the same length as a Beetle, the same chassis, with the same wheel base. Anyone wanna bet?

Likewise, I have the same tank cover, but no bag that attaches. Have you the original bag or a way to cobble another bag to the cover?
