Well it was showing 151 miles on the trip meter by the time we got home, so it was more than that due to the fact the bigger tyres throws the speedo out, but it was well worth the trip, nothing really technical but still some good lanes and a few interesting ones in the dark, why interesting? the lights on a vit aint good and it was hard going to see where the lanes went :unsure:

we started from Tavistock and headed straight into some local known lanes just to get us going, always heading northish and westish :huh: making our way through the lanes to the Great Torrington area and on to Bude. which was i think a good way of breaking up the long trip otherwise on the tarmac, hope you agree?

I know Sam and Mat knew more lanes in the area that we were passing by,so they have promised to put something together in the future for us :D but for this trip my objective was to press Northish by the lanes.

I didnt get many picture this time as Ratboy was away with weekend so I had no Navigator and wanted to keep pressing on as much as possible.

Hope you all enjoyed it as much as me even though i seemed to have a few problems during the day with not always having 4 wheel drive :o which was causing me to slip and slide a few times getting into the old habit of reversing to unlock the auto hubs helped as after doing this things returned to almost normal, though it might have been 3 wheel drive at times it got better as the day went on so guess the hubs were sticking.. :question:
