Safety
Ouch!
Our rigs can bite us in numerous ways and I found another on our recent trip to Cruise the Woods down in Oregon.
I love the fact that my rig has manual steering, no hoses to rupture or pump to fail or belt to break. But there is one downside.
Generally all it takes is one trip through the woods and you learn to forever keep your thumbs out of the wheel. All it takes is an errant rock, stump or moments in attention and you will know why.
