It was boring in the evening, I went to look for adventures. — Toyota Hilux Surf, 3.0 liter, 1994

On Monday, closer to the night, I was still overcome by the desire to dump somewhere. And despite the late hour (after 23.00), I started the surf and drove off. And then another friend asked me to pick her up from the station. Well, I think everything is going great. I drove to pick her up, we stopped at the poppy, she bought hawks there. Well, I kind of ask her, can we go for a ride? She agreed to her misfortune. Well, since it's a weekday and late in the morning and still at work in the morning, we decided to look for adventure in the city. Fortunately, in our roadless city, this is not a problem. Almost in the center there was one street, even cars walked along it many years ago. Then it was washed away, boulders and hatches half a meter high with no less high curbs appeared. The street is a very long climb of 200 meters along it, now there are no cars, even people don’t go.
Well, about the fall, I rode there. To be honest, it was fun, huge boulders, the remains of trees and open sewer manholes. A sort of urban trial. But in winter the street was never conquered by me.
When we drove up to her from below, the first words of a friend - "what are you going to go there?", "Yeah" - "can I get out", "Don't be afraid, I did this a hundred times ... though without snow and ice."
1st gear, full and low. In skating rinks 1.5 atm. We slowly start climbing. The start turned out to be quite easy, except for the fact that in some places we had to drive over hatches and curbstones that were at a height of half a meter. After the first stone, I realized there is no way back. In short, fun. The Surfik skidded a little half the way, but ahead at the very exit was the most difficult, I almost sat on the bridge there in the fall. Well, that's how it turned out, almost having overcome this section of the surf, blowing it to the side into the pit. Well, we are sitting not reaching the finish line 20 meters. So we try, the car is still moving. So not all is lost. Attempts to move from a place lead to a 90-degree turn and a very tight landing of the surf on the stump. How do we assess the situation? Ahead in front of the muzzle is a steep rise of 1 meter, behind a semi-meter curb, on the starboard side (where the descent goes) there is an open hatch and the worst thing is that the surf does not even move. In short, fun. At first it seemed to me that I was sitting on a larger icy hummock. But a detailed examination revealed that the hummock is a stump that has long been uprooted and forgotten here, the hopes for salvation with the help of a crowbar have melted away. I called a couple of friends and one agreed to come help. There was no cable, so I had to use a 30-meter steel cable from the UAZ driver who came to the rescue. The length of the cable was just enough to hook me and not plant the UAZ there. I cling to the front fangs and, using mobile communications, we begin to pull me in a coordinated manner from the stump to the side. After 5-7 minutes, the surf with a handout beam slides off the stump. Having turned around a little, with not much support from UAZ, I still climb this climb. Despite the late time, quite a lot of people got out to look at the rescue of the surf, many prophesied that I would live until spring on this stump. In short, everything went well. Then we rode a lot more, but there was no extreme as such.
I arrived home at one o'clock in the morning, happy as a herd of gorged elephants and happy after drinking tea fell asleep.

I was lucky with 2 stoves! But the previous one must be upgraded with a pomp from a gazelle, because it works rather weakly at idle.

All diesels have this problem. Therefore, we have a button to increase the speed!

And she's actually lucky. A minibus was driving from Moscow, it broke down, the charging was gone, it drove without light and the stove drove as best as it could 3 times, I almost got into an accident. And still, he didn't get there. They hung out in the cold for 2 hours, waiting to be picked up, and then I

Usually I wear a poppy when I go to Moscow, there is a poppy at the entrance. At the same time, they will warm up and wash their hands normally / you can wash your mind from the road

Sometimes you can) ) )

Well, at least you won’t die of hunger, although I usually don’t eat poppy seeds.

When you have a hawk from McDuck with you, it’s not so scary to get stuck) ) )

Your nickname fully justifies itself =))) Well, not an extreme girl, although she can be understood. Drive 400 km in a minibus along M1, while neither the stove nor the light worked in the minibus (the generator died and the moron drove it to Smol from Moscow with this malfunction), then wait another 2 hours in the cold until they pick it up. electricity ran out before reaching 30 km to Smolensk. And then there's me with my extreme ... well, at least I was warm.

Good luck in your search! As soon as I think of giving three green whistles, we will find a place in the surf for you.

Interesting places to "climb" do not know) I'm on a sedan! )
If I remember, I'll tell you.
And I think you can easily get through to the bunker. When you decide - signal, maybe we will have nothing to do) although idleness is doubtful before NG ... the son of Santa Claus ordered a bunch - and I have to look! ;)

Krasin 1 and above. The turn to it is not noticeable (until yesterday, I broke through the parapet there and rolled it out a little). And if you look from above, it seems that everything is the end of the road. There's a convoy store up there. I often parked in front of this street, but I didn’t even think that it was a street, it looks more like a runoff of water. Then one person said that it would be interesting to drive there. Well said done, the first time I went up there in the fall. If not for one place (with this stump), then for me it is a very easy climb. The next time it was more interesting to go down, it was raining and everything was washed well. Do you know any other funny streets worth trying to conquer?
I'm on vacation next week, I want to follow your route in the red forest to find Berenhalle. You just need to find another loafer (tsu), so that it would not be boring. Can you tell me more interesting places in our area?

What kind of street?)
The first impression is of the Paris Commune… but you would drive there)
Good adventure! )
