With just the two of us out for the day we could really press on, starting at Yealmpton we wound our way to Avetton Gifford and then on up through Loddiswell and back to the Kinsbridge area.

From Kingsbridge we headed through the lanes towards Dartmouth and up to Totnes before turning back on a more southerly route for a few more lanes before heading for home.

well damage to the paj was as expected i have a few scratches that will require some T-cut and elbow grease but other wise all is good and I can see why Big Nasty likes the Paj's and Shogans for lanning. effortless and comfortable.

the scratches on the bonnet and roof could have been avoided all together except i was to lazy to get out and cut the branch down,, that and the fact i slighty misjudged the height, the vit would have missed it all together i reckon.

many lanes have been repaired as reported but it was still a great day out with some carefull driving needed in places..

thanks to Pete aka Lichtie and his daughter for the company and support as it is always a good idea not to go out alone just in case, as it was, with it being so dry you could probably solo the route no problem.

The Maxxis AT's that supersurf fitted 2 years ago performed well all day and still provided bags of grip not slipping once anywhere.

we covered 40 lanes during the day using half a tank of fuel in the Paj from start to finish and that included a hurried rush to Richmond walk before we set off for a few breakfast baguettes :rolleyes:

Pics and Videos to follow asap
