A few piccies from me:

Friday


Sir Doris, Trugga & Postfinder at the reservoir meeting point - twas a glorious day


The Gap Road's "Blown Bridge", going down (Tip: Engauge manual hubs before descending )


and up (with spectators)






The view north from the Gap in The Gap Road (We follow the track on the left)

Having stopped for a chat with two other vehicles at the top, Sir Doris obtains the location of a nearby interesting lane...


It was quite scratchy


and side slopey








but we were rewarded with a pleasant river crossing



Next on the planned route was Strata Florida:





We arrived at the camp site just before dusk and settled into an evening of socialising

Saturday









I though I'd taken more photos for Saturday

Sunday








According to Sir Doris's map, he wanted us to drive through this... we didn't so followed our tracks back the way we came.

Big thanks to all for making it a great weekend
This weekend was one to remember the company was excellent and it stayed dry in wales But a tad cold at night
The lanes was excellent the bast**d lane was tricky in places but my group made it without the aid of waffle boards or the slipper Not bad considering i have no lift. (VERY PLEASED WITH MY NEW TYRES)
Once again thanks for a great weekend must do it again soon
Will put some pictures up tomorrow

Had a fantastic weekend, thanks to everyone, as people have already said, it's all down to the company Didn't sleep right well last night though, gonna asleep for ever tonight, .

Harvey is completely pooped, he is fast asleep on the couch, thanks you guys for letting him come along, and being so lovely to him, especially Spencer and Chey x, I think he was quite well behaved, and will be bringing him again, gotta get him used to torches though so there is no 'hound of the Baskerville' barking again

I have taken some photos, but only on my phone, and that is aaaaaall the way out in the car , so will have a look through tomorrow, I was concentrating on taking Gypsy-esque pics - close ups of nature for those that don't know

The pics posted so far look amazing, can't wait for the rest, especially Nitromotors, he took some of Harv and other animals that we found along our way, namely cute lambs, especially brand new ones
