Wetroads Is not My site, it's Lee Chapmans.
Co-incidentally he might be joining us on the next Fording Drive (Not in His Saxo but in with me in my Fronty) As we talk alot online!

Very nice Video Carl.
We'll definatly have to look at a Half-Way meeting point for a Fording Drive!!

Well, Have a look at the Wetroads Site,
plan a drive taking maybe 6-8 Fords in along the way
and since you know up to MK that opens up the area for you!

just remember if it seriously chucks it down you might need to Recce some of them before we drive the Route!
