Laning and fording today with the newbies

[jason]

Today we did some laning and fording locally with the newbies to the site (who are local to me). It was a good day, none of us got stuck. All those in standard trucks did very well - welldone! Scott broke his exhaust - which was the only casualty of today! Apart from a bit of water in the back of a couple of the trucks And I did ditch mine, but I did manage to get it out before anyone had the chance to get the camera out on me.
I think everyone had a good time!!
I will add the pictures from today on, when I can get photobucket to work

Thank you to Colley for helping - when I thought I got stuck today, I imagined in my head that I would need you to come down with your new winch to tow me out. But after rocking it backwards and forwards and giving it some welly - I managed to get out! My clutch didnt like it though!

So here goes with the photos...





















If anyone has any others, add them.
