Beginners Green Lane Day - Wales (8th August)

Postby Trugga on Wed Jun 24, 2009 1:07 pm

I haven't run one of these for a while, so I thought I'd make amends.

If you are a member of FOG and have not yet been green laning (before the 8th August 2009), then you qualify to join me.

The route we will use will be the one used by many first-time Frontera owners in the past, which is not quite 40 miles long of which near enough 70% off tarmac - this route will take us the best part of a day (10:00-17:00). You will get to drive the Wayfarer and White Stones and many more scenic lanes around north Wales. Depending on the weather, we might even dip our tyres in the Corwen car wash.

As previous participants will confirm, a standard Frontera can cope with the terrain. A good tyre tread depth would be beneficial though.

Make this a family day out - bring the kids, the other half, even the dog (but must be kept on a lead and under control). There will be plenty of stops for photos, view appreciation and snacks. (Toilets will only be available at the start and the finish).

Here's a video from the last Beginners Green Lane Day I ran:



The maximum number of vehicles for this trip is 4, so with mine leading the way, there are currently 3 spaces available.

Hi Lawrence
What a great Idea :dance: :dance: And I hope the people who go on this have a really great time :dance: :dance:

But unfortunately I won't be coming on this trip, due to the lack of toilet stops :wink: You men don't know how lucky you are :lol: :lol: seeing as you can pop behind a friendly bush :wink: whenever you feel the need :wink:

But the ones who go HAVE FUN! & please remember to take photos ...Thank You! :dance:

Thanks for the offers chaps.

If we need to run additional groups, I know who to ask (although I don't really want to have too many out on the lanes)
