i think these clubs are worth joining esp if you like off road due to the laws ect, i promote both on my site & as soon as i can spare the pennies i'll pay my subs, already got my GLASS car sticker.
for me i need to prove to farmers ect that i'm not out to distroy his land ect, as i like to get to the most remote parts possible for photo shoots & with a bust back i need locals to give me a break & let me drive there!!

Thanks Guys, and point well taken Billy - perhaps if the landowners see
that we aren't a load of idjits, but part of an organisation that is promoting
sensible practices we will be better off for it. I'll have a look at CRAG as well and decide which one to go for.

Happy to say that what I thought was a gearbox output drive problem (as did a few mechanics) turned out to be nearside back wheel bearing.
diagnosed and fixed by a pretty good Frontera mechanic near Southampton. If anyone needs him, let me know. (But I do know you guys are good at DIY :) )

I was drawn to CRAG because it encompasses a wider group of countyside users.

I used to be heavily into Walking/Climbing and issues surrounding these activities, CRAG works to promote access for all countryside users.

Be it Trail Riders on Motorbikes, Horse Riders Mountain Bikes and Walkers.

Should I take my former active hobbies up again I know CRAG will still play a part in the access of trails and routes to enable all users to work together to keep Rights of Way and Trails open and where needed, maintained.
