Chasing the Bessemer usually ain't that hard if one step's on it a bit but I wouldn't recommend chasing in these weather conditions. After sliding thru a stop sign sideways & getting stuck behind people driving more sensible than me, this shot was had at Pennside with about 20 seconds to spare.

This is my new car, a Nissan R51 Pathfinder Ti. I can now drive onto all the beaches with 4WD access, so I can get my surfboard that little bit closer to the water...
Im busy gearing up now... I want to be able to set up on a beach with a shelter, chairs and table, BBQ and of course, a fridge to keep the beer cold! Im about half way there now...

That's classified as a high-clearance, 4WD road. Or ride a bike, I guess. Canyonlands National Park.

You can save a couple of miles of backpacking on sand if you drive to the 4WD trailhead. I have an AWD car, but the park said they would not recommend that.
When I got back to my car, it was surrounded by AWD Subarus with Colorado plates, so apparently the locals agree with the NPS recommendation.
Forty miles of bad road...
Zen Koan: “Muddy Road” Parable:
Tanzan and Ekido were once traveling together down a muddy road. A heavy rain was still falling.
Coming around a bend, they met a lovely girl in a silk kimono and sash, unable to cross the intersection.
“Come on, girl” said Tanzan at once. Lifting her in his arms, he carried her over the mud.
Ekido did not speak again until that night when they reached a lodging temple. Then he no longer could restrain himself. “We monks don’t go near females,” he told Tanzan, “especially not young and lovely ones. It is dangerous. Why did you do that?”
“I left the girl there,” said Tanzan. “Are you still carrying her?”

About the photograph.
This is a Land Rover Series III.
Both the Series II and the Series III share a common side design, thus is harder to tell the difference between the two. The Series I have a different looks when seen from the side.
The best way to know if it is a Series II or a Series III would be to look at the front, as there is a difference design style between the II and III.
In 2017, I became a Land Rover owner and driver when I got myself a Land Rover Freelander. That is why I decided to go to this Land Rover show, hoping to pick up any spare parts for my Freelander, or pick up some information, and that was really what I was there for, to enjoy a day out for myself.
I bought along my camera in case I may find interesting shots, and figured to take some photos of various Land Rover models. I took this photo, but did not think to make notes of what model it is.
This is one of the many models on static display, not very far from the entrance to the showground.
About the overall subject.
Land Rover Series.
After the end of the Second World War, the luxury cars manufactured by the Rover Company was not in high demand, and raw materials were rationed for the rebuilding of the country.
Inspired by the Willys MB jeep, the Rover Company decided to design an off-roading four-wheel drive vehicle for light agricultural use, for the civilian market.
The design and development started in 1947, and by 1948 they rolled off their first Land Rover. At that time, it was simply called Land Rover which itself was a model name instead of a brand name.
By 1958, they designed and produced the second generation model, and decided to call the first model as the Series I, while the call the new one as the Series II (1958-1961). The Series II also included improvements which would become known as the Series IIA (1961-1971).
In 1971, they produced the third generation known as the Series III, which went on until 1985, when it was replaced with what is then known as the Defender.
Land Rover Owner International Show.
Land Rover Owner, often abbreviated as LRO, is a British monthly magazine for Land Rover enthusiasts, published by a company based in Peterborough. The full title is often Land Rover Owner International.
It first started in July 1987 by a group of East Anglian businessmen, and was a mainly black and white 40 pages magazine. By the mid-1990s, it was bought by a publishing group, and became one of the popular Land Rover magazines.
The Land Rover Owner International Show is a yearly event ran by the magazine, and usually during the weekend in September. It features many various Land Rover vehicles on display, and includes an action arena for Land Rover drivers to display their driving skills.
