JUst a wee update for everyone.
This site is easily drivable for those with road tyres - obviously if it is raining, the grass will get very slippy. There are over a dozen of the SORC boys coming along, so even if your car isn't overly capable, I'm sure you can get a lift (or maybe a shot?) of someone elses car.
As Stuart has said, we'll be doing some trial sections with canes. Some will be what we call Tyro - all about positioning your car, not about the terrain particularly. We'll also do some RTV style - a bit more, ahem, challenging.
More details tomorrow, when I have time!

Hi Mike
Good to see you around. Guys - for the rest of you, Mike is the entertainment for the day
The best phrase to use is "no-one could go over/round/through/up/down that...."

What time are you planning on hitting the motorway at? I should be down in Fife at about 8ish
When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
