Rottie And Rich's Little Tour; A few lanes before Christmas

So last minute me and Rottie popped out for a few hours of laneing,

Must say it was fun lol

The recent weather has changed some of the lanes quite significantly.

With washed out sections, water and mud!!

Tried a new lane, what a laugh!! Took us about one and a half hours to go a third of a mile, till we found a gate in a field to turn around in. No vehicles have been up that one for a long time. Poor Rottie was having a heart attack cutting and digging!!!

Don't think we'll ever get through except with a lot of clearing, was only about 5 feet wide between trees ahead of where we turned around.

Well, what a trip.....I took my dentist out for a ride, the guy I bought my first truck off....

I drove most of the days lanes, but let phil drive a few......he loved it....

Rich said.....no ones done that one......why dont ya stick ya nose down it...

I was in.....and about 20% in when the saw had to come out of the boot..I was commited....but then surprised to see rich in the lane behind me.....

O dearest club members.....
Can truly declare I have recieved some damage.....
Two roof panels on each side.
Rear pillar just behind window.
And folded the gutter down over the rear drivers side door..

Oh....and cut down 14 trees, and dug around two ton of earth...., shifted 5 truck loads of rocks too....

I do 4x4 driving me.....and scars to show it too........

Thanks rich and his lads, good fun....

sorry to disappoint you lichtie but I have never done that lane in its entirety.

however i have stuck my nose it from both directions many moons ago.

and know it to be too narrow, maybe a narrow SJ or jimney at a push with lots of clearing.

strangely enough its always avoided on our runs out that way.. i wonder why?

It looks like gun club lane, but then it doesn't!!

Maybe it's because it was a while ago. But then I don't remember there being a bend in the lane

Other than that it looks like the one up past the gay pub !!!!
