Always walk the lane first!

Looks like a great lane to drive

aaahh, you found "the steps" they are great fun but you must take great care, not so long ago i went up there with a friend i an sj413 an me inthe vit, as gaz in the sj had his front wheels up the second step he staled and rolled back went backward up the bank and on to the roof

great fun tho , and nice pics ,glad you and kids are in tact

glad you are all in one piece patman! if yers going out again soon round the area i'd love to tag along i'm not far away in fact, me landy lives in sleepy valley
i used to do a bit of laning many years ago round farnham/frensham on my old rm125 but not been out that way for a long time

Aye it was a bit brown undies time and if i hadn't been too lazy to walk down and find out why pat had stopped I wouldn't have taken Crust down.

New years resolutions
1. Walk route first
2. Eat less pies

We'll give you a shout the next time we go out. Might be a south Reading run with lots of fords.

What happened to discojamz's exhaust looks like its been ripped off

no its been like that for a little while, the old rear hanger rusted off and the replacement bungy melted. It looks better now as is held with trelis wire. Will make a new mount when it warms up
