Mr T, ain't kerny a 'onhory BS member

after a v.bad experience with green laning many moons ago i don't go there no more i can ask about a private venue which would cater for a good number of motors, which is as hard or easy as you want it to be, they would run groups to cater for everyone, but it's not a pay n play free for all, got to be taxed, insured and driven to and from site, so all above board. wot you all fink why do i ask such stupid questions

Green Laning

...that and not grounding out the axles

no, never tyres or axles, it's the colour that makes the difference, the blue ones always get stuck

some news on progress with 4x4 day end of the season
Land Rover Experience Snowdonia can offer a couple of options: either to join one of their regular Adventure Drives, for a "non damaging" day out, or an Adventure + day for a more challenging day, if there are enough of us to make up a group on our own then we could have a mixture of both. Other option is if the group is large enough they would be happy to put on a day just for us, we would have sole use of the site and they would organise routes to suit the experience of the drivers and the vehicles attending. I can vouch for the venue, there's something for everyone, completely non damaging to out and out winching. Cost would be £50 per vehicle.
Over to you all, if you think it's worth doing i'll start a separate thread
