FOG Green Lane Day (N.Wales) 23/07/2006FOG Green Lane Gay (N.Wales)
Date (Provisional) Saturday 22nd July 2006 Location: Llagollen area, N.Wales If there is enough interest, I will lead a Green Lane run around the north Wales countryside on the above date, subject to the group size not exceeding 4 vehicles (a Green Lane Association reccomendation). That equates to 3 spaces, unless Ste wants to be my gate closer then only 2 spaces, unless we can convince Ste to lead a second group then 6 places. The route will about 35 miles but will take us about 6-7 hours including stopping for photos and an hour for lunch, but the best bit is that around 75% will be green lane driving. The route will include the 5 mile long "Wayfarer" and of course the infamous "Corwen Carwash" I can't promiss you mud, but I can introduce you to legal laning and the breathtakingly beutiful Welsh countryside. I expect the route will be suitable for standard Fronteras’. I suppose it is only fair to offer the places on a first come first served basis. Please register your interest, or any questions, below.

Argh, and that was the only real date I had available.
Never mind Ste, you've done the route 2½ times before and the Wayfarer and Corwen Carwash even more so. So then, there are 3 places available...
Hey folks get in there you will really enjoy it Ste Ste

To be honest, having seen a few lanes this past weekend, MT's would be overkill.
As a point of interest, I'm running worn AT's. We had a Frontera on worn standard tyres do the route in the snow and a Landruiser do another route on road tyres. In my oppinion, MT's are more suitable for Pay & Play, AT's should be fine for summer lanining, road tyres should also be ok. As long as we don't have a huge torrential downpour. Lawrence
can I book a place? should be ok for that one, am in Weymouth the weekend before and at the CLA show in Romsey the weekend after...hopefully the missus will be ok with another trip in between!
Time to start welling stuff on eB*y to fund the petrol I guess Anyone want a series 3 landy with a 3 litre V6 as a plaything?

Well, I suppose as I announced the date of the 22nd as provisional, we could change it to the 23rd.
Andy, Simon - how does Sunday 23rd sound to yous. Lawrence
Well the OH has given her permission, and I can't wait. What sort of time are we starting out and where are we meeting up?

Looks like we have a FOG Green Lane Day comming together.
Everyone ok for Sunday 23rd then? A rough idea for the day will be: 09:30-10:00 - meet in Corwen, N. Wales 10:00 - start the laneing run 10:05 - the "Corwen Carwash" 10:20 - Start the "Wayfarer" 11:00 - stop at the summit for views/photos/coffee 11:30 - continue the Wayfarer 12:15 - arrive at pub for refreshments (optional), toilets etc. 13:15 - coninue laning and country lanes 17:00 - approximate finish time in Llangollen. The afternoon will be slightly different to what I've run before, due to a few of the lanes now being out of bounds for vehicles following the NERC Act. There will be plenty of stops for photos during the day. Note - there is no charge for your participation (although you're welcome to buy me a Cola at lunch time). Apart from getting there and back, you'll use mimimal fuel. The 30 or so miles will take us most of the day. BUMPTJ, Apache-Andy, generation-x - could I ask you to pm me your personal email, as there is a booklet I'd like to email over to you, containing some hints and tips, expectations etc. Let's hope the sun keeps shining.
