Second place in the voting of the NDR
In an online voting about the most spectacular events in north germany of the north german TV channel "NDR", Tractor Pulling made it into the second spot and thus got a little TV coverage. I know a lot of you people voted via this website and thus here is the reward, the TV report about tractor pulling in north germany, showing runs from Edewecht of the DTTO and some brush pulling from Lengerich.
Show no Mercy at Ahoy 2009
On Saturday 7 March 2009, the Ahoy complex in Rotterdam will again host the European Indoor Tractor Pulling Championship. The 31st Superpull promises to be another spectacular event, combining plenty of horsepower with pure entertainment. In addition to teams from at least seven countries, the competition will include a star attraction from the Unites States: Show No Mercy. Owner Bruce Slagh has already indicated that he looks forward to raising the roof in what will prove to be a clash of the titans. With 11,000 horsepower on tap, he may just succeed!
In addition to hair-raising competitions, visitors will be treated to a spectacular programme, including fireworks, laser shows, DJs and special demonstration trucks. All seats provide a first-class view of the action. As was the case in previous years, the participating machines will be on display in the adjacent exhibition hall for a close-up inspection. There will also be an entertainment programme.
Pulling sessions are scheduled for noon and 7 p.m. on Saturday 7 March. Tickets are available from the Ahoy box office on 0900 235 24 69 (€ 0.45/min.) or from Ticketservice on 0900 300 12 50 (€ 0.45/min.); www.ticketservice.nl.
Back home!
What a year!
I have just moved into my new appartement in Harsewinkel and got the computer back to work and online.
It's been a loooong time since I had a place I could call home. After fininishing my welding school in March, I was working for Hörstkamp all April and then some, being on the road for pulling a lot, started a new job 200 km away from home in Salzgitter (near Hannover), where I stayed in a little single room in a "guesthouse" during the week and at my parents on the weekends.
Then got a call from Claas, as they wanted me to come working for them again, which I started to do two weeks ago.
After having already given up my appartement in Bielefeld, I had to stay at a friend (with my furniture all packed in one room), sleeping on the couch for two weeks, while waiting for this place to become avaliable.
Today I moved in and while it's still a lot of boxes to be unpacked and a bunch of furniture that needs to be bought, I can now call this place home!
The most funny thing is: In the past I have been to this house regulary, as a good friend of mine was living here and we had a big room under the roof with a little pulling track for our Lego Pullers. About 20 ft from where I sit right now, I became German Lego Pulling champion in the 450g and 550g class pretty much exactly 20 years ago.
Anyhow: I am now welding combine parts for Claas, am close to the workshop of the Green Monster Team again (we went out with several guys and gals of the team tonight) and am back where I grew up.
No place like home....
