Hertfordshire Lanes?????

Once again a fantastic day out and a big thanks to the Spiderman. The highlight definitely was the ploughed field and watching BoB spin out in front of me. I'm not quite sure how anyone made it through there especially sibble on his comedy racing slicks.

Cheers again for a great day out, and whoo hoo, I didn't crash into anything (bushes and trees dont count right?)

Sibble opening the bonnet to kindly let everyone warm their hands up..

I now have this strange aversion for tackling problems that envolve going round corners.... anyway I did in on the way back, but I bet no one took any pictures.

What is going on with that snorkel? Is that a U-bend?

Looks Grand! Loads of good pics! Everyone sounds like they had a good day out!

Well today I got bloody cold but the high ratio transfer box is in and i didnt need to use 5th gear over the speed bumps so all looks promising! Wales here we come!

Next task waxoil and a couple of bushes!

Looks like a great lane there guys!

Top day thanks to Spiderman for leading ,,,

You should have been out in front like me, I was looking at it thinking this could be messy, we could be hear a very, very long time.

Really I'm just staggered how nobody failed to proceed, especially likes been said, Sible on his slicks.

I did my best to pick the easiest route as everyone else was in my tracks. Didn't want to go digging any holes or making monster ruts. Just above tickover, to try and make a path for everyone.

Great afterwards, but hairy at the time.

Damn... sorry we missed it but we will try to be there next time! The V8 was collected nd the feedack on fleabay says they are happy with it... they even saaid they might take a lookon here to say hello!

Got home and realised I had lost my house keys!! Other than that it was a really good day. Thanks spydie for leading was a very good choice of lanes. Not to challenging and not too easy that you get bord. Looking forward to the next trip.

Some good pics there
Must get my motor sorted for laning (ie decent tyres diff guards, recovery points) so I can join you lot one day

We could always have a competition BFG Commercial all season tyres, no diff / steering guards, rear towbar and only tie down points on the front :doh: Only got stuck once August last year when I got grounded after following Spyderman

Does anybody else have a problem with their face, vehicle or number plate being shown driving/stopped legally on a public byway?

If so let me know and I'll make a list and never post a picture.
