I can tag along as a rear of the pack gate closer if you need me.

And besides, its that long since I have done any offroading I think I would be classed as a beginners anyway. :oops: :lol:

Depending on location and confirmation of the date and the number of takers I could possibly offer my services as a second leader.
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!
