Dont worry Sarah, you will be lucky to get out of the car park with the Docs Landy in your group.

I should come back to the posh Yorkshire lot if I were you

I am just thinking that I need to get my steering guard fitted, then need to get some diff guards too and now a spot bar if we are night laning

I quite like the idea of being speshal tho

Mine'll manage.... eventually

Maybe a bit of a snails pace going up the steep ones though

No thats one option depends who wants to attempt grizedale in reverse and work backwards though

Other option is to stagger it so we start one lane ahead of each other group wise then end up meeting in ambleside for a convoy back to windermere as theres a few lanes we could stagger it on in the same area so there'd be at least a half hour gap between groups

Just having a browse on trailwise, there is only one legit lane through Grizedale and on that lane the national park have requested that it is only driven in a West to East direction - i.e. starting at the visitor centre end, going to towards Esthwaite water if that influences the choice of route.

Yes thats the fox, if they've requested it than thats how we'll do it!

The only people I've ever seen driving it the wrong way are the three hiluxs which held me up last time with broken half shafts

and the cnuts at Kankku who everyone in the area hates anyway and knows to avoid their rip off garage windermere auto centre

There were a few user comments saying they had seen motors going at it the wrong way.

I last did it about 3 years in the summer on road tyres, don't remember it being too difficult apart from the loose rocks on the way up the steep bit at the start

Its not bad, I did it last in heavy rain when everything was a bit slippy! Struggled on one section but made it

Mine and robs may be ok, it'll just be the specialer of the special group in the v8 thing that we'll have to watch out for
