You may have to go and ask the local MOD out there, and watch out for the Red and Yellow Flags!! cos u might end up meeting a rather large tank.

there are so many places to go laning up there heading out to a pub called The Bustard, if i wasn't working I'd be their :(

have fun, Ch3f


If I recall the tracks on Salisbury Plain are ideal for beginners, the Vauxhall Off Road club had many trips there.

So we have our extra group leader, that 16 places in total.

Our current list of runners (in no particular order) is;

Meooo.........................................confirmed
Woodwizzard.................................confirmed
Bobbinsjob
Neil Sharland
Rick
Surfer Shaun (a Surf)
Stefanw (another Surf)
sir doris...
ukcobra
neil............................................confirmed
gibbo
Sledge (another Surf..... group leader his diff is fixed!!)..confirmed
Biohazard(woodzie) (leader)................confirmed
Surfenstein(leader)..........................confirmed
£50 special (leader)..........................confirmed


If anyone knows different fell free to copy/paste/amend the list.

We also have one more space for any late comers

Might be an idea if people could copy/paste and add "confirmed" after their names. (I've done those I already know)

Maybe an idea to arrange meeting points/timings too.

As I'm coming up from Cornwall, I suspect my route would be A30/M5 (Exeter services)/A303/Stonehenge.

As Shaun comes from Exeter area and has been before, he may be able to suggest another route?/meeting point?

I think my mileage will be around 165 and we need to be there around 09:30 for 10:00, so what would be a good time @ Exeter services?

A good place for me to meet with anyone coming from below Exeter would be the garage/little chef on the roundabout where the 358 from Taunton meets the 303 and A30. Have to work a time out.
