When I first arrived I was looking left and right like a good thing, I was expecting many more Frontera owners to turn up. I think you let the side down boys and girls  As mentioned in other posts Ive only been green laning in Ireland for the most part and Cowm was the first proper off-roading Iv ever done. I knew my baby was good, but I never quite realised how good. Besides, I had to have some brave tea after the marshall took us round the 1st time to get in the swing of things. Then if I saw something I just went for it. The tea was definately kicking in by the time I met Tim and was glad when he set off in front of me so I could see what he could do in his truck. The general idea being 'if he can do it, so can I'. Also there are some nice pics on http://www.shotindigital.co.uk Im glad someone saw fit to take a couple of the old girl. I heard a few mutterings around the car park about 'that Frontera that went up that hill'. A great day out. Farley on the 16th March anyone? I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it! Me Truck

Is it suitable to take young kids along? How much is it? Everyone has a photographic memory, some don't have film.

Its £25 per vehicle. Kids are fine as long as they can be secured into their seat appropriatley. I can lend you some ratchet straps if need be..  on a more serious note - its very bumpy - even the green route - and passengers get bounced around quite a bit. Have you seen my FOG ad?

Like the idea of the ratchet straps maybe some gaffer tape as well to muffle the screams Will check with shmbo. Cheers Everyone has a photographic memory, some don't have film.
