Saturday broke nice and bright, ye hah, onto laning, but first wait the well drilled hanibal has to re-pack his roof tent that i was to spend the day cutting branches to get it through, and kingsonlim was re-pack the allready bursting rangie to its upermost limits it looked like the trans american expo with its kit, 09.00 start and boy what a day we had on the lanes, we even found welshlandy looking for us on strata, but sadlly he had to leave due to mechanical gremlins, shame that as we reackon he would have fitted in a treat to the trip with us, so we headed north via nant y moch etc and on and up to happy valley via a series of small lanes, and then yet again the weather closed in so after a nice trundel over the aptlly named happy valley we stoped for evening grub and a chance for kingsonlim to show his true calling in life and hanibal to cause us more pain with his side spliting antics before into some night laning that was to last untill 12:30 at night before camp in balla ranges, and then like magic wanngetmuddy arives out of the dark after playing catch up all day trying to track us like an indian scout, so the familly grew.

sunday dawed wet as ever, but after i eventually woke late to find everybody packed and ready to go, and not one of them thought to wake me thoughfull lot they are, we head off to a series of lanes round coed y brenig forest before heading southwards again, sadlly we had to lose hanibal due to work commitments, not a bad idea as i dont think we would have got his roof tent down the next lane without series chainsaw work, some more short lanes followed before low and behold we all get stuck in the same patch of mud, we spent more time laughing than extracting ourselves, and wanagetmuddy couldnt even stay upright on his feet to give the order to pull, but we were soon on our way just a bit gruby, rhyader and a few small lanes finished off the day before everbody had to head for there native lands around seven in the evening, to which i found myself alone to carry on, bit sad to have had everybody leave but happy at heart they had all been there...

So with only one further thing to do but thank everybody who joined us some only brieflly but still they got there, welshlandy and partner you made the effort to come, that counts for a lot, wannagetmuddy and partner, you would have loved the other days and you were there in the thick in the mud to help out, thanx to you also for making the trip, a big thumbs up to hanibal and mark, my sides have not stopped hurting since you left, by the way i think the clonking noise was not your 90 but the beer cans rolling around in the back, see you soon mate on the next expo, and lastlly Kingsonlim, the man is a legend, start to finish he was there, through the piss takes and the mud he stuck to it like a trooper, with his mates the now named discodonkey who opened every gate with a smile, and the v8washerwoman who closed every gate and kept us all awake, once again many many thanks for comming along to you all.... see you again soon....

Cracking Day It Was


A big thank you to 1Dirtylandy for the time and effort and patience for us all!!

For those Who couldnt make it sadly you missed out...


Big Time

I think for sunday we must have covered over over 60 miles of greenlane !!!

I was going to say no breakages

Sadly I found out what my litle clunking was

It was my rear Driver side shock had snapped out

Oh well a good excuse to get a new pair

It was a procomp es and had her on for over 3 years and i would say 80 percent was abuse of that. Yes I will be replacing her with the same make !!!
