We did some amazing and pretty extreme laning last weekend. Lots of recovering and winching. What was most interesting for me was that the first lane was a real hidden treasure. I can only find one YouTube video showing it and it really is an absolute peach.

We did this in a 3 car group with my Defender 110, a DISCO and a Pinzgauer. You may have seen the 'crash' video that happened at the very start of this actual lane.

So here is a lane in Machynlleth, Wales that the trip leader called ‘The lane from hell’ Enjoy!

You know what its like, the video doesn't do it justice. It was a lane that by the end I couldn't decide if I loved it or hated it and I was sweating and running on adrenaline!

Single best lane I've ever done to be honest for sheer combinations of obstacles and terrain all in one place!

cracking vid as always mate is a good lane that one..i see the planks still there lol
 
Ah so there are some out there!!! Rubbish YouTube description!! It had obviously been driven but not all that frequently we thought!
 
Thats the bastard lane.

If youve only just discovered Machynlleth then youve got some crackers to do yet :D

The ones that are not trampled every week are the best kinda lanes.
 
We did that lane both ways last month. Seemed a lot easier than the year before :rolleyes: just need to keep to the right where the sleeper is if going up ;)
