welsh laning...

[Sir-Doris]

Urrr.... Not being completely local can anyone tell me where the horseshoe pass is please. And what lanes did everyone have in mind? I know whats local to me, I know the lost lake, wayfarer and white stones.

[jonny ramrod]

horseshoe pass is llangollen. Or just outside it. Or we could meet in the centre of llangollen.

Lost lake sounds interesting. White stones is a must, as is the wayfarer. Maybe the phesant steps if peeps are feeling brave.. cowen carwash if the rain eases... llangollen climb.. Lots of em..

What time do you fancy meeting up as you are traveling the furthest

[Drift]

If your doing those lanes the Corwen car park would be the best meeting point, and it has toilets

Horse shoe pass has a cafe called the Ponderosa

Llangollen only 40 miles from me. Llangollen town centre or Corwen car park are both good. I like to set off bout 10am when laning. Is a 9.30am meet suitable for everyone?

[jonny ramrod]

9.30 meet is good for me.. corwen or llangollen... Is corwen closer for you mr doris..???

[furio]

Are the Toilets free in Corwen (they are 20p in LLangollen) If we are meeting up at 930 in wales, might have to meet you a bit earlier Jonny so ignore my last PM. Unless we all just meet up in Llangollen or Corwen. If that was the case Llangollen sounds like the place, easy to get to for everyone? Whatever really.

[jonny ramrod]

we better make it an 8.30 meet at tarvin sands.. we can meet up with harper at the chester junction of the A51 / A55....about 8.45 Then off to llangollen / corwen... (free loo's sound good though..)

Do we all have cb's...and what channel..??

[Sir-Doris]

Corwen carpark, 9.30am. Toilets are not free there either (20p) but if we all hold the door for each other. Just have to be quick though as its on an auto wash system

CB's on channel 8 and I have a couple of PMR's if needs be.

Have an enjoyable day out and don't take any risks, stay safe.

The weather has been extremely wet of late (in case you didn't realise), so please use a little common sense before deciding to drive a lane (ie, no mud plugging on public byways please)

I'm busy that weekend, playing, er cough, marshaiing a comp safari in mid Wales.

I agree with your sentiments entirely Trugga, I enjoy my laning too much to want to jeopardise it in anyway. Similarly I worked hard to afford my truck and try and drive it in a sympathetic manner. I've been up the wayfarer and others in the area and seen the mess left behind, but unfortunately in any past time there are always some who put a downer on things . Anyway trugga, have fun at the comp safari, sounds good, maybe in the future we can meet up for a days laning ourselves.

[jonny ramrod]

couldn't agree more... The mess at the top of the wayfarer from fellow laners is just unbeliveable..

Was also looking on a club site that is located near to me. Some of the pictures in their laning section are unbeliveable. In a very bad way.. Being stuck in peat bogs, driving well off the tracks etc.. Not good at all...

[jonny ramrod]

i'm looking forward to sunday....

[Trugga]

Someone's bound to say it, so I'll say it first...

Remember to take loads of photos and post them up on here.

Lawrence

[jonny ramrod]

sure will.....
may be a bit damp for fording though...

[Drift]

Just so your day goes well, if Corwen is anywhere near here on the fence posts dont bother, some one will ruin their engine or worse get swept down stream as the current when that high is very strong, see second pic same day

[Mudskipper]

i recon the car wash will be unpassable this weekend, but if anyone does it make sure its cam cordeded and youtubed

[jonny ramrod]

better take a wet suit..




this is a ford from by lake vyrnwy, taken last week before the real bad rains... no i didn't drive it...

[Trugga]

Can I post my Corwen in a Landrover video again...
