Couldn't be bothered to read through all the posts but in answer to a couple of questions.
The low branches were in the last but one lane
the height of the lowest branch was 2.1m (and it scraped my canvas's).
If like me you run on standard leaf springs you will want oil them first as
them roots can be a bugger and watch out for the holes.
A working handbrake is advisable some very steep bits (Up and down).
Not too much mud and water on this run but plenty of bushes and tree roots.
Oh and I also forgot to fold up one of me steps and now it don't work so well.

Update fur peeps coming to the BBQ.........
Site of BBQ has been sorted (its at a pub) - so kiddy winkies can play on bits, its got loos (for the gurlies) and it can take 15 landies. It sells good beer too .
a cupple of other points - peeps wiv roof racks wont be able to get down some of the lanes - cos branches are too low - Grippas series and a disco only just managed it. and one of the best lanes is gonna be tight turning fur 110's - Patman seems to think it could be body rubbing - although maybe that was just wishful thinking.
Anyone got good paintwork? you have been warned!
Make sure your name is on the list if yu is coming.......
and now LRB2 - if he gets his finger out and tells us if he is drivin etc etc etc..
Details of meeting point and BBQ site will be sent by PM on Wednesday (we mite have agreed it by then!)
weather forecast here..

im really sorry to say, but i may have to pull out of the meet.
just remembered its my mates 18th on saturday, and it seems alot cheaper option to driving from devon to surrey, then to basingstoke, then around hampsire, then back to surrey and then to devon lol.
will cost me like 90 quid and im only a student
think i will have to wait for a meet closer to home.
really sucks as i was looking forward to meeting u all
