Can't believe so many have dropped out  I couldn't wait to go on my first trip. If I hadn't had a gut full of Whiskey and only just seen this post @ 2.30am the night (morning) before I would have begged to have gone Sincerely hope those who are going have a good day and wish I was out there with you, and well done to the organisers. Have a blast

We had a great day. The lads picked it up so quickly and confidently we swapped half way through and did the Kerry ridgeway and the 2 river crossings Covered a fair few miles, good company, good lanes and with the exception of Graemes back window, no issues. Had a moment with the guy from Deliverance again on the ridgeway, luckily we escaped without squeeling like pigs.

The guys that came out with us took some photos on their cameras n phones, said they might upload some piccys. However, I dont think a lot were taken as we tend to concentrate on the laneing and not setting up photo shoots G.

Pics yes, might even be a shakey vid or two... As soon as I get them uploaded. Been a tad busy since getting home. Suffice to say it was a good day and those that stayed at home missed out. Now all I've got to do is fix the truck and a very leaky central heating boiler, the very same one that OiC HF rang me up while we were on the ridgeway to tell me it was leaking all over the place and was I coming home to sort it...... err I'm 3 hours away I said ..... Wrong answer it seems so she left a large bucket under it and promptly went out to get her hair done  at least she left the bucket 
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered  ) Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left hereWork in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'Truck'Comments on 'Truck' the truck may be left hereOwning a 2.8 is a hobby in it's self...
