like chains they are designed to get you unstuck not for general driving, and if they did rip they wouldn't bother a drive shaft much but as they fit on the outside of the wheels I'd expect them to just fall onto the road, bit of course all things could happen
well thats different then i personally wouldn't've take our m/h onto a muddy field
you need chains or socks for driving in mountainous regions in France like we do going through the somport tunnel its the law now .cheyenne
Sometimes you don't have the option. For example, we went to Stourport for a picking weekend recently -- over 400 miles round trip, and we'd already paid for four nights camping. When we arrived, I was horrified to see that camping was on a soft, grass field and not the hardstanding I'd assumed. So, what to do? The choices were to take our chances on the field or turn around and go back home. We took our chances and got stuck. Thankfully, a combination of waffle boards and willing helpers got us parked for the weekend and the field dried enough for us to 'escape' on Monday morning! ... but that's the reason I'm following this thread!
It's where a bunch of ('acoustic') musicians (typically half a dozen to a couple of hundred) meet up for a weekend-long jam session. I play guitar, fiddle and mandolin; Jan learned to play bass during lockdown. Last weekend was by invitation only with a couple of dozen musos taking part. Next one is next weekend (10th to 12th November) at Baskerville Hall near Hay-on-Wye; camping is £20/night without EHU: bring your own banjo etc!
Haha, there was me wondering what fruit/veg was in season for picking
