Sunday Laning - 14-02-2010 - Review and Pics

Pics are up loading now.

Started off in Shropshire somewhere following a TOR route. Plenty of easy going lanes. Some scratchy, some steep hills, a few splashy bits before heading towards the Long Mynd.

As I wasnt leading I didnt really pay attention to where we were or where we were going :oops: Im sure the other will fill in the gaps ;-)
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

Looks a stunning place to go laning - maybe some of us will have to make the effort and travel upwards and enjoy some of what you guys have got to play with.

Hi

Looks like you all had a great day, stunning scenery and good looking trucks. One in particular caught my eye, maroon swb (reg no N86 ANC). I'd like to know where he got the snorkel or from what make and model it was destined for.

I trust the piping on aN Aseries 2.8 tdi could be modded to accept it.

Regards

Stuart :)
