Green Laning day - 07 or 08 June 2008 - South East

Right, as it looks like it will be easier to start new thread..
And already few of us up for some green laning this weekend, so here you go.

We can meet up somewhere and then travel? My first idea was Box Hill / Leith Hill area in Surrey as it is easily accessible for everyone.

Ive got many local OS maps here too so we can again meet up and then choose where we would like to go?

Sorry, i know it is short notice

Hi Paul, just noticed you are now in Charlwood. Do you know there is a byway in Charlwood? Its very short but usally very muddy.

Yes, I know, and I will never try it without someone to pull me out. Its VEEEEERY muddy

[Luke]

I know a couple of people who have got stuck down there, including me. It used to be a lot longer but the farmer surfaced most it a couple of years back. It was closed all winter but I noiced its open again.

Good luck with tomorrow.

PHOTOS!

Short break on Box Hill (note clean-ish trucks)





Then somewhere down east from Box Hill





Everyone sound and happy!



Poor Gibbo! FOG to the rescueeeee!









Nice muddy lanes!





(not so muddy on these photos)



Everyone say 'Fronteraaaaa!'



Very very extreme part of yesterdays day out, a lot of Axle twisting!

[PaulS]

While travelling down this hill we met up with few fellow Green Laners (mainly Zukis and LRs), but then this rather unusal Isuzu with TRAILER approached And as he was with his trailer there was no chance he will reverse, so we have done it (which was very difficult as hill was very steppy!). As a result I met very nice local tree..








And again on the top!







And again down!



Then tea brake on local lanee for home made goodies!





And few byways later pub brake for cold Fanta (and Coke for others)





Dont use hammer to fix your bumper!



And few other ones:



Luke using his saw



Directions, directions



Photo of the day - bottle of RadWeld



And heading back home....
