ive been using that site for a few years!

ive found some really good lanes through that site aswell.

usually if im planning a laning trip, like the peak district one in november, i will look on wet roads and see if theres any nice fords in the area, and then include them in the days laning!

Thats what i was looking at it for as well, i was told about a site in aston cantlow and i was told there was a ford nearby, so thought i might have a bit of fun on the way

Aston Cantlow, FOG had one of its first major weekend meets there a few years ago and we did a good load of fords that weekend
