Was nice to see you again
I don't where to start talking about yesterday, I'm still exhausted
Leading the trip was very very hard work, even with Zip in the passenger seat to help and be gate bitch
So a belated thanks to Zip, Andy, Neil and anyone else who has led a trip I have been on.
Belford was dreadful, I thought it was bad before, but nothing like yesterday. When I came round the corner from the ford and saw it
Then we had a slight error in communication
I got stuck, although by Neils classification I'm not sure it counts as I didn't need a tow to get out. It was tipped so far the passenger wheels were just about off the ground and both spinning. Anyway I got out with only a few minor scratches from the rocks on the banking and a bent indicator where I grabbed it to stop falling out of the window
Well done to the others for getting up it without drama
The rest of the trip went without incidents and only a minor breakdown
Was lovely to see everyone again, cant wait for the next trip
I can appreciate effort involved in planning then leading a route....I was exhausted just tagging along:faint2:
The vast combined knowledge is invaluable
not to forgetting the spares either more so with having so much to learn about my landy O **** was my first thought after seeing Belford for the first time and didn't get any better after seeing the carnage :rolly: the steps equally daunting....

It was an excellent day out weather was great and so was the company.I also managed to knock 29 mins of the sat nav estimated time home
That is really not surprising the drive home was almost as thrilling at times
think I lost you through the second set of red lights in bradford Was nice to see you again

SO... looks like Belford needs some repairs then? Say 20 tons of hardcore?
Sorry I didn't make it so I could chicken out of Belford... but my daughter's car needed picking up from the garage (and paying for!) . My motorcycle was also due to be ready, but it had junked the new fork seals the garage had fitted. Only a couple of hundred quid down and not 300+...
Glad you guys had a scary, good time! See you on a future trip.
Oh my daughter's 21st party went very well on Friday night...no I wasn't plastered...we had to tidy the village hall afterwards ready for another function on Saturday morning!

Just got home and might manage a few hours sleep before an early start to do the horses.
Then Neil, Zip and I are going CAVING:hysterically_laughi
I really hope no one takes a pic of me in the outfit Kate has just lent me for this expedition.
If we aren't back by tomorrow night, someone call the mountain rescue
