Re: farley quarry pics and reports april 08Super day out.
The only word to discribe todays was ........ EXTREME. A lot of changes seem to have happened since last time we where there. A combination of a lot of rain, some obvious ground work using large earthmoving machines and us lot playing alot rougher than usual. Just managed to limp home on 10.4 volts from the alternator at an average rev range of 4000 rpm and a top speed of 95 MPH. Also, as BikerBarney kindly pointed out, minus a Cobra A bar, 2 Ring Spot lights and a number plate. Oh well, The black eye will soon go down. And it seems I was not the only casualty, just got a text message from Bobbinsjob which reads ........ " Broken Down at Milton Kenes, Alternator Dead !!!!, sent a reply back saying " Its not the only thing DEAD when it gets home !!!" Then to top the day off, I also got a text message and phone call from Trugga, asking what time we will be arriving at the pub as he was waiting on the Car Park for us ......... Unfortunately, by this time we were mostly already at home, leaving Trugga all alone on the Car Park. A few piccys and a Few Videos to come later, especially the 2 of KYLE, driving the truck.
Re: farley quarry pics and reports april 08so ....all in all then ...not a very good finish to the day then ....

What also made my day was the 'ol fronty ran perfectly even though I gave her the hardest workout yet Tried things I've never done before & even (stupidly!) went down a steep decline in second and gathered a bit too much speed Brought an old school mate with who really enjoyed the experience of being tossed around for a few hours Im amazed at how much confidence I have in me 'ol fronty Cheers guys,great day out!....a few pics to follow Martin

Re: farley quarry pics and reports april 08First piccy, JohnM doing "the slope"
JohnM on the trot! My dahling! Some of the team.. MasterMucker showing the old man how not to remove moms bullbar! Two...yes two stranded landys Not a lot of action pics as was too busy gripping the steering wheel! Martin
Re: farley quarry pics and reports april 08hope the guys in the rolled landy were ok ....how'd he flip it there
good piccys tho ....
Re: farley quarry pics and reports april 08
They seemed to be fine Carl They spent the rest of the day riding around farley as if nutting had happened! Not sure how he flipped it. Martin
Re: farley quarry pics and reports april 08I nearly did the same as the one on its side, came up the slope to its right, as you crest its blind. Left hand side of the car tries to drop down to the left where he rolled and the right tries to go straight on towards the top right 3 cars. If you carry too much up it you fall into the hole, it wasnt like that last time, as Jase said someones been playing with a digger.
The one half way up a slope failed to climb and rolled back, one wheel lodged in a hole. Very nearly went over. There were a lot of broken cars today, the last hour there werent more than a handful of cars still playing. The tracks were very rutted with a good inch of slime on top, lots of climb fails on relatively easy stuff and a group of players desperately trying to break cars. One pick up jumps to mind, litterally. That said, everyone seemed very respectful of the others around them and there werent any near misses with others that I saw.
