Whats everybody doing in October ?

[wideformat]

Hi All

A friend of mine is organising an off road event in October http://www.adventureoverlandshow.com

I will be going along to give a little support, just a thought how about a few Frontera owners turning up and showing off their vehicles ?

A show thats not all about Land Rovers has got to be worth supporting

Anybody fancy it ? names below please or will I be the only Frontera there.

Doing in October? Not much....

Lyneham - Earth testing on the HV Sub-Stations, Intake and LV Feeder Pillars. Hot oil filtration on four transformers and de-commisioning 2 x 3.5kv gensets.
Buckley - fixing stuff
Yeovil - Site familiarity on the HV, LV & AGL systems.

Thanks for the response lads, the organiser is going to set a side a part of the camping field for Frontera owners.

And on another forum a user called "Tuggy" who now lives in spain sends his best to all FOG members, his name on here was "King of the kitchen" he's making the trip up and looks forward to meeting some old friends.

I am camping for one, Tom the guy who's running the show is setting aside a camping spot for Frontera's and I know another Frontera site is also planning on going.
Tom has left it open and said if I let him know numbers closer to the time he will sort a spot for us, not sure on cost yet I'm sure he will do a deal if there are a few of us.
I was going to email him early September to firm up numbers.

I am seeing him at the LRO show at Billing when a few of the Landy Rally guy's are meeting up and I will sound him out on costs then and report back.
This is the first show of this type he has organised (although he has organised a few other shows) and I wanted to offer some support as any show which is not just based around Land Rover's has to be a good thing.

The show is biased more on overland trips than just green laning and pay and play sites off roading, with talk's from overland trip organisers, technical help, first aid for off roading etc.
As it's the first show of it's type I'm expecting it to be a little rough around the edges as the format takes shape but with support from the 4x4 community there's no reason why it can't become an annual event.

will it be ok to bring the caravan, not a tent?

Don't see why not there are loads of people going in large overland 4x4 rigs and truth be told I think a caravan is a much better idea in October

Oi , Wide format what is this "other" Frontera site of which you speak? Thats only up the A5 a bit from me might have to pop up and meet peeps.

[wideformat]

I think it's worth a look
The other site could be friendly to fronteras possible

[fudge]

put me down as a poss as well

[wideformat]

Right all I have had an email today from the organiser of http://www.adventureoverlandshow.com he has run out of club space but will honour his commitment to FOG members who want to attend.

So I'm starting a who's in list to confirm numbers, so I can get the price sorted
