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
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
The steps were interesting 
Anyone done it north to south up the steps  Soon to be without a Frontera after 10 years of owning one
Only ever done it down the steps, but a load of citreon 2cv's 4 wheel drive
 went up that way honest.
My xar was standard when I went up save for some macho tyres and it was a great lane

It is, its looks even better from behind the steering wheel
Another reason why I asked about going north - south as you have to climb it
Was very wet and slippery today, classic welsh weather 
There again if a 4x4 2cv can then defo gonna give it a go Soon to be without a Frontera after 10 years of owning one
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
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 
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 Soon to be without a Frontera after 10 years of owning one
told ya they were quiet on road
I've only got stuck where the LR's and everyone else gets stuck (even if they have lockers and lsd's)
