For those interested my home built 'Julia Wagon' made it across Scotland successfully. Only thing she couldn't handle was stepping stones which is fair enough. Grass, dirt, gravel, stone, roots, sand all easy peasy allowing me to handsfree pull my pack everywhere with no blisters or back pain at all
