Hampshire Laning II

That's another one..

Some of the others came out with crappy video/sound, the next lot won't have any sound but my old XdaII seems to have a problem with saving the video onto the memory card without it juddering

These vids were saved onto the onboard memory and I've got a couple from the day before which were ok as well (when I did a test run of the lanes).

Rick,

No worries about not stopping over mate.. be good to meet your missus

As long as she doesn't scream in fear too often, HAHAHA.

You didn't tell me about going down to the forest, have to fill me in on that one, I want to go play down there soon..

Tomorrow if I have time I will go check out another couple of lanes nearby, I want to go and walk Water Lane which is the one that I said is known as Hampshires most difficult lane.. I'm not going to drive it, but I might walk it.

What do you think of the little vids?

[quote="rangaKoo"]Admin, could we get 'edit' features enabled in here please?quote]

hi simon
i'm the mod for this area ..............
what do you want editing???????

Nothing inparticular mate, but it'd be good to have edit enabled in all sections of the forum... bit of a pain when you need to add things to the previous post.

Not that I mind making new posts and getting a better postcount though.. perhaps I'll get a better tagline that way.

I went to check out what is affectionately known as Hampshire's HARDEST lane and the advisory that comes with it is: BODY DAMAGE VERY LIKELY.

I drove down a small section of it, got out and walked in the mud and water for a little while and saw WHY it's got a reputation... half way down the lane it suddenly drops to have about a 3 foot difference between the two halves of the track which means you'll be very overbalanced followed by the fact that there is a high side on the downside of the lane and if your vehicle slipped only a little bit then you'll end up embedded in the rock studded wall...

I then trudged back to the car, drove a little further down to where I could turn around and drove out.

The following picture is taken at the very bottom end of the lane and shows that the lane is flowing with water. It's obviously the reason why this is called Water Lane. It's right near to Alton.

oooooooooh
that looks like my kind of lane

i'm gonna shoot my hardest lane tomoz

well your more than welcome to come up and try it out mate..

I'll walk along behind and video it, hehehe

Unfortunately I didn't take my camera when I walked along the bad part of the lane, I might get another chance soon though.

Si

mmmmm
might take you up on that ...........
hampshires not that far from me (devon)

you could come up on the 9th if you like

Then you can play in our other lanes...
