There is a McDonalds/Forecourt shop at the meeting point. Other than that it's go go go through many small villages with a stop somewhere remote for lunch.

And if you have passengers warn them that laning doesn't involve toilet stops. Unless you are male and can pee up against the landy

110w will be conducting a session for ladies very soon on how to teleport to the year 1865 for erm squats and then teleport back without hardly anyone noticing.
Having witnessed her amazing teleporting ability at first hand it truly is a sight to behold.

The longer I've been at this game the less reserved I am at dropping them wherever and whenever needed now in light of the fact there appears to be a decided lack of appropriate sized trees when ever we stop on trips

Ive been told that one of the lanes has also been re graded by the council, its going to be a lot more tame than i first though.

All I can suggest is start praying for rain.

lol. You do know we live in the midlands dont you.
To be honest im worried about what people are going to be expecting.
Greenlaning isnt supposed to be a challenge, if you want to use your motor to its full capabilities you need to get yourself to a pay and play site, where spinning your wheels and damaging the terrain is not a problem, if we do that on green lanes, they get shut by the council and ruin it for everyone.
Were very limited in the midlands to where we can go, there isnt many drivable routes around us and there certainly not a challenge. Its not about getting stuck its about a nice drive in the countryside with good company.
In wales and other areas it is different, you will need to use your diff lock and low range to get up and down places and there will be big fords and some mud.

i dont want to get stuck i know what your saying, im not asking for extreme lanes
previosly i went laning in shropshire and it was brilliant with some great lanes and great views, i understand the midlands will be different, and sunday will only be my 2nd time laning, i got the bug for it now haha

Like funkyslipper said earlier, we need some rain really. Ive been out the country all summer but i gather it hasnt rained much here either. Most of the byways will be hard surfaced. There is a couple that might have some moisture on.
We will be doing a couple of fords, one is quite deep.
Im sure you will all enjoy it and have a nice day out and meet some new people to go laning with again.

Can we do the deep ford last? My chassis needs a good wash from my laning last weekend and should imagine Sundays antics will only add to it.
