Firstly thanks for reading page 1 (if you havnt, please click the link above me photo to go direct to page 1). Well I did get the 3m Apex (got it for a ton, so thaught for the price it worth getting, it just completes the quiver even if itwont be flown that often) So have now got the full Apex quiver.... |

The big PKC buggy build is moving along nicely, nearly done, all but the welding, so all being well it should make its debut at "Lifes a Beach" 2010, at Pembrey in wales. It has been fun building it, and while there will only be 5 of them in existence, each one is personal so it is a one off. Managed one of my goals recently at Pembrey in June 2010, managed a non stop buggying distance of 131 miles in one sesh, i shall be trying to improve on this distance though, again at Pembrey in September "Lifes a Beach" meet I shall attempt a new UK record of over 300 miles in one sesh - will I do it, well I will give it my best shot (if the weather and winds are good" - I shall let ya know - Just need to break through the 50 mph barrier now.
Pictured above is the new PKC buggy which I have named "Dog", just seemed apt, thats all, no other reason. It handles and looks great, and is soon to be fitted with Assym wheels and Kenda beach tyres. Managed a speed of 42.2 mph on its first outing so that good too - maybe Dog will take me beyond the 50 mph barrier - who knows. I only managed 175 miles at Pembrey so not the 300 I so much wanted to do, but hey never mind (the mileage was done in one go - no getting out the bug once started), one sesh, so that is quite an achievement in itself. Got to admit I was in bits when I got out the bug, legs all stiff could hardly walk for the first 5 minutes - will keep trying tho, I definately believe 300 miles in one sesh is do-able,
Me at Pembrey with Dog and the Apex 5m Mk2...doing the 175 miles...what a great weekend..cant wait till the next time Here are a Couple more pictures of Dog the bug, the polishing has just started so he is shining a little, but more time needed to make him shine:
Thanks for reading my story so far - I shall continue to add more and more, so please come back very soon, see ya then..Budoboy (Mike, PKC sesh endurance specialist)..
