I'll be up for coming out too! I'm near Sturminster Newton and know a couple of lanes around these parts, although a lot of them are a wee bit fragile at the mo. Probably best sticking with Matchams until it dries out a bit. Let me know when you're going and if Itchy's up for it I'll be there!

I've been out with the SADLRC a couple of times. Okay bunch but I wasn't too keen with their 'lane-care' (trees pulled down, unsuitable lanes etc) last time out so not sure if I'll be going out with them again.

Just down the road from me in Gillingham then. Will keep my eyes peeled for itchy!

Late mid to late Feb will suit me better if possible. Had a few days out recently, got Slindon this weekend and need to squeeze a service in so I'm pushing my luck with her indoors

I'm up for Purbeck and Sailsbury when the weather is better, might even bring the better half and the dog!

Let's all meet up on 16th for some P&P mud, then afterwards discuss the plan for Purbeck & Sailsbury in more details

If any of you are passing Throop/Holdenhurst Village in Bournemouth between now and then let me know and I'll get the biscuits out and the kettle on

I can do Sunday apart from between 12th - 19th Feb as I'm on holiday but other than that I'm free. Hopefully I'll be fixed soon as its just a half shaft so not to bad. If not ill definatly jump in. Matchams is good to kill a few hours and nice and local but its £25 to get in then £10 for any additional driver and £3 per passenger! So its a tad dear but its quite good! Some great hills! In don't know were I'm going on Salisbury but also up for that or anywhere else, I'm always up for am adventure.

34064 get some good tyres you won't regret it! Just don't get what I got if its a daily driver lol

mlucas110 · Jan 23, 2014

Matchams has no rules lol they do a safety check now on your vehicle before you enter. Its funny he goes to me ". Do you have a 1st aid kit" no " are your wheel nuts tight" yes right of you go then.

Sounds thorough. That'll keep the liability insurers happy

You need wheel nuts?!?!?!

Having never been before, is there some serious things i need on/in the landy to be allowed to enter??

I don't have any recovery points on the front (unless you count a strop round the chassis). It'll be a good excuse to buy the 3 piece steel steering guard from Paddocks with integrated recovery points
