For Jess's Birthday we ventured into Cornwall doing a few well known lanes, some not so well known a a few new ones, the outline of the day was as long as we do Duloe and the Panther, which we did.

again Jon & I were in with Big Nasty so a good time to once again brush up on my map skills that i don't get chance to do very often now, as most of the time my routes are all planned out in advanced and programmed in.

with only 3 trucks in the group we managed to cover a fair few lanes during the day which was good as it will come in handy for the WCL night run planning.

again the decent into Duloe has changed last time I drove this the steps with hardly a bump, but today the steps were back to how i remember and needed a bit of care in the slippery conditions to avoid damage.

lots of walkers and Joggers today in the woods but no objections to us being there as you sometimes get, :D

somewhere in the distance we could hear pixies but true to form they remained elusive and we didn't find them ( Supersurf & Fozzy)

later during the day we once again heard them while we were in the liskard area, but some distance off.

anyway way after Liskard time was cracking on and we headed for the Panther, Landlord hadn't done this one before and we could hear the screams from Jess and the Girls all the way down :lol:

we took in one one new lane on the way home to end the day, just as well as everyone was getting tired after a great day out.

Pics and Vids uploading atm i'll post them up asap

ha ha,
myself and fozzy like to play STEALTH mode,
we followed for some time and even nearly drove around you at one point withouit being spotted in the stealth green shogun,

we had such a laugh,
as usual we had the radio listening to all the new cornish pixie radio shows,
even got one called mikeo radio,
all about green lanes and stuff well interesting that was,
had us listening for ages,
even had that bloody yoda on the cb again,

even spoke to elwin at one point as you were just entering the top of panther,
we had you on the cb and we were at the top of the hill in pobathic (miles away)
those sirio aerials are the way to go great coverage,

well worth the extra money if you were in need of help as the coverage is awesome,
bound to pick up someone within 10 miles or so,

anyway tried to go up muchlarnick but failed in the shogun,
well to slippery today,
even the BFG muds got clogged with mud,
but continued the day forward with several new lanes now added to the maps,
all in all a very entertaining day out :thumbsup:

i really enjoyed the day, i must admit i was proud of myself driving these lanes as slippery as they were.
