The Gap

Did The Gap today, my first time as well. Went south to north, followed a few green ovals at the start, the look of surprise on their faces when I came through the first tricky section was a sight :lol:

No piccies as today was a quickie but liked it soo much going back tomorrow. Its only 30mins drive from my house and it closes Mon so gonna make the most of it.

There were quite a few walkers, mountain bikes and trail riders, one cheeky lad on a mountain bike asked my if I was looking for the motorway and was my sat nav confused :lol:

The steps were interesting :!:

Anyone done it north to south up the steps :?:

Only ever done it down the steps, but a load of citreon 2cv's 4 wheel drive :shock:

went up that way :lol:

honest.

My xar was standard when I went up save for some macho tyres and it was a great lane

that looks steep

Going up the other side

It is, its looks even better from behind the steering wheel :shock:

Another reason why I asked about going north - south as you have to climb it :lol:

Was very wet and slippery today, classic welsh weather

There again if a 4x4 2cv can then defo gonna give it a go

how did you get on with your tyres :wink:

They were great, although the gap is mostly stone, the start at the south end (think its called broken bridge) was quite muddy last weekend with lots of big rocks chucked in.

It went through it no problem, made the LR guys smile when it got up the other side :lol:

Toms Farm was a more severe test and yes I got stuck but so did everybody in that section, plugged through other bits that peeps were avoiding with no problems

Would I buy them again, defo but did see a set of Insa Special Track in action and was mighty impressed :wink:

Gonna look for s SWB toy after Christmas, will probably put Insa's on that as they are cheeper than the Kumho's and stick with Kumho's on the LWB

Still can't get over how quiet they are for a mud tyre :shock:

told ya they were quiet on road :lol:

I've only got stuck where the LR's and everyone else gets stuck (even if they have lockers and lsd's) :lol:
