I'm tempted, but it's a long way back if I break the landy

Why not. if you've got recovery?

They brought me back from Holyhead no problem.

If we can't fix it, just tow it into the village and ring them, besides Whaddon is pretty open and it's not like it's going to be too extreme.

if its half as wet as it is here att the Nationals it'll be propper messy at Whaddon!

Somone mentioned AT's in this rain AT's won't get orf the campsite let alone near any the courses!

i doubt my XCL's will be much good here gonna be a messy one!!!

have fun guys!

Jai,

Hardly any rain here.

If i had pennies to rub together this week I would have brought Kai up.... Same old story I am afraid... spent too much over the last couple of weeks!

Good time today, haven't been to Whaddon for ages.









He who gets stuck attaches the rope.

That looks a bit wet in places.....

looked like a good crack... although maybe white trainers weren`t the best choice of footwear for the bloke holding onto the rear step of the 90

White trainers are never a good choice of footwear, unless you are (I know it's a bit of an oxymoron) a homosexual with no sense of style

And Whaddon looked like fun, nice parking in the mud puddle Spyderman

Jesus Spydie... didnt know your motor was into ballet dancing!!!! Where abouts was the one with the red motor... don't recognise the drop off... not the little lake by the marshes is it?

Ryder,
That's the entrance to the river crossing and that was the easiest way in. I clouted the rear crossmember a bit as I did it. It was a long wheelbase Frontera with a foot long tow bar, so you can imagine how stuck he was and he was on road tyres.

The river crossing must be more like a puddle if its that low.

Where it's been so dry, the mud has become really sticky. What was pretty easy has become near impossible.

The word "optimistic" does spring to mind!

He'd only bought it on Saturday, never been off-road before. Talk about baptism of fire.

Tell me honestly... and I mean with hand on heart... did you... at any point... even suggest the phrase...

"Follow me you'll be alright>>>"?
