Richard de Florennes Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 well, at least I learned a new English term: "t-one-t" (or was it 2-1-2?) do not remeber exactly and still do not know the exact meaning, but back to topic: That's not what we like to hear, hope it was not too unpleasant for you mate.

allis8550 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Some great photos there Richard, that Ropa Tiger looks an awesome piece of kit, I assume its harvesting beet? Is it a German built machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard de Florennes Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 Yes, all implements shown here are harvesting sugar beet. The owner of ROPA (yes, another great German brand) was formerly engaged with Holmer (German, also producing large self-propelled beet harvesters) which works closely together with Britains great brand Standen ... However, I like this one from Denmark much more: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard de Florennes Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 and finally the only picture not related to the beet harvest. I can supply any more pictures of each implement in this topic on request tomorrow with the exception of this last one ... That's it for today, good night!

Richard de Florennes Posted October 2, 2007 Author Share Posted October 2, 2007 Thanks for the nice feedback and the good wishes. Regarding all your questions: - Do not know anything special about this Fendt; it is a special coloured Fendt ("petrol blue", yes there used to be a limited edition Fendt in this colour scheme ...), which was was formerly used by a local Fendt trader for test-rides and tractor-shows/exhibitions and is nor operated second-hand by a local farmer - Yes I am lucky, as this region offers rather good weather and a lot of interesting farming activity - I just need to drive a few miles. However, as I have seen quite a lot implements in the last weeks and months, I have reduced my tours a little bit and just used this tour while visiting my parents for taking pictures of every interesting item on the fields. Also, as our fields are not surrounded by hedges, but rather by straight and public rouds, you just take a binocular in the middle of the landscape and can see everything on the fields in a circle of 10 miles. Then you just have to keep the direction until getting there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
