Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

Lol. I assume Friday and Monday are 'travel days' and that there won't be any laning etc on these days? I'd like to do both laning and the bala off road site so if someone who knows the area doesn't mind leading a group on the Saturday so that those of us that want to do both can then goto Bala Sunday. Also be nice to have a few different difficulties levels of laning group. So a beginners group for those that don't want to scratch up the truck too much and then maybe a more experienced group that requires a certain level of ability or that might incur some light damage and maybe a few deeper river crossings etc?

For example the wayfarer is idea for a beginners group because of its wide track and mild terrain. Strata although I've never done it looks abit more complex with the bomb hole having potential to damage bumpers etc. I don't know the area so I don't even know what's around there but as a idea it'll also help distribute the groups as to not disrupt the locals too much

Bobby has missed my name off the list of people attending :oops: I will be there, maybe just me or with a friend.

With me not having a truck in time for the annual meet, would I be able to jump in with one of you lot for abit of laning. I don't think my boss would agree to me taking my new (company car) astra GTC out.
