The summer of 1966, at the age of 15, I first time drove a tractor, a Bolinder-Munktell which in my opinion was a huge machine. In my way I tried to help the farmers at harvesting, at ploughing, all for free as ruled by ‘naober plicht’ ( = neighbors do help each other when needed, especially at hard times ). IJzerlo, at the 'Vereniging'. We met lots of them therafter and now present a lasting performance.
