Having not managed Harlington at all this year, who's up for a go before Wednesday?
Me and a mate have been out and about trying to find local lanes for the past week or so. So far we have been a bit dissapointed by how relatively easy and flat they all are.
We did Steppingley and it was ok. Is Harlington any good?
Cheers,
Edd
Greenlanes should all be drivable in a Land Rover, certainly in our area. If they're not you shouldn't be driving them as you're likely to be destroying them. The councils have been doing a lot of resurfacing recently, which in my view is detrimental to the use that the lanes get, in that it encourages flytipping and burnt out cars. If they'd keep them unsurfaced, these morons couldn't get access to them.
If you want extreme, Derbyshire peaks is the place, we did it this Summer and it's fantastic.
Harlington is a really nice lane, but it get used by the local farmer in all weather. It can get tractor sized ruts, which when dry are OK, but when wet, you're in a world of pain. It's Summer use only, so closes on Thursday. Seeing as it's been dry for weeks, I'm going to give it a go.
They're definately worth the drive, but you've have to do it before Thursday, as they then close till May.Thanks for the info mate. Will probably have a go at Harlington then. Which end do you suggest to go at it from?
Are the santa Pod and Grafham worth the drive upto?
I'll do it tonight then, hopefully not a case of 'famous last words'. I have driven past harlington had a peek yesterday on my way back from Cambridge, it looks like ground conditions are good dry shouldnt be a problem for anyone.
I'll see you there at about 6.30. Don't try it alone, it can be evil.Ok thanks mate. We are gonna give it a go tonight then Probs around half 6, if anyone fancies showing us the ropes.
