disco 200tdi....[hannah]Well guys and gals, we've spent today doing a recce for this trip and have some nice non damaging lanes which will definitely cater for the inexperienced/shiny off roader.
As Ratty indicated in a previous post, we cannot guarantee that shiny paint might gain a light scratch or two - but it's no worse than pulling in to let someone pass on a narrow country lane.
We have found a mix of easy gravel tracks to a couple of byways which may get a Traction Control light (if you have one) coming on!
There are even a couple of big puddles........
And before someone drops me in it, yes, I did lose my bearings and yes, we did have a confused period where tank tracks and byways were not where they seemed on the map
Despite this, I don't think anyone who attends this taster of taking their Landy off road will be disappointed.
Now we know that a lot of peeps have asked for a place on this trip - I'm sorry to ask this but please can those who have done so post again with the following info:
Do not worry - This info will help us to put together groups which we hope will be relatively balanced in driver/vehicle capability.
- What type of Landy you own.
- Is it standard spec or modified.
- Whether you have any off road experience .
- How many peeps are likely to be in the car.
- Do you have a CB.
Zan79 took a few piccies, don't worry, newbies won't be doing this unless they choose to - it's just the old hands like to relieve some, er, stress when they see a biiiiiiiiig puddle.
