This thread seems to have been a bit hot for a while and now all quiet. 4x4s are different things to different people. Personally, mine is for farm work and getting about in the winter snow and mud - heck, its to make life easier! I love the idea of some real off roading, but wouldn't be able to as if I bust the truck, I can't afford big bills to repair or replace, but wouldn't mind some greenlaning / social meets to get to know other owners who might be able to share ideas or tips, that kind of thing.

So whats the score on this, did any meets ever get off the ground? Or am I tap tap tapping a can of worms...

It faded to dust . nothing came about mine was offthe road till this month, Now it back off the road agian till i get round to sorting front bearing

[vaux_2]

Well get it fixed, i wanna go play Mine's back on the road after i killed it on a rally so i want to try and break it again, lol

Anyone heading down to Bala for the annual meet at the end of April? I'm gonna head down on the Friday and back up on the Monday

[ashbrear]

think its about time us scottish members got to meet up
we must be the only area that doesnt what do other
members think

I think its a good idea im sure there was a post about this, mine just off the road due to play in the front bearing and insurance needs renewed. No picture though ash

I was thinking if a central point could be located (looks like Perthshire maybe??) and someone knows a good place to go offroading in that area, why don't we just keep it casual, meet up and those who want a natter can do so and those who want to drive can do so - and perhaps take us frightened newbies round the circuit

Knockhill is the only place I know with a mud course, but if the other events they have are anything to go by, it'll cost an arm and a leg just to get in! Any other thoughts???

Vaux_2, can't make it to Bala, we have a lot of (motor)biking events starting around April time and as I'm one of the main organisers, I kinda have to be at them, oh, and we've got lambing then too

[drinksoptional]

The scottish vauxhall owners have meets end of every month last time i was out numbered by cars, see how many people show intrest then get a list going be best idea

[ashbrear]

i dont want to put a downer on this but we have been here before
on this topic,some just wanted to go and play in the mud and others wanted
to have a social meet and in the end nobody could agree on anything so it
was back to square one, so do we go for a monthly meet then we could
discuss about offroading,social events and the like so where do we start
any suggestions welcome.
rgds ash.

well, you're all welcome to come along to our monthly meets to help get some interest back into it. You might be able to use that to launch more FOG meets?
