UK Is anyone going laning in Surrey / Salisbury plain areas on 2nd/3rd Feb?

Abu

Trekker
I have 5 days off starting tuesday so quite fancy taking the landy on a little trip other then its recent motorway miles:) Would go home but ill have to deal with boredom....and i can't go kitesurfing that often as the wind is all but dead:(

Soooooooo...

Is anyone planning anything that i might be able to tag along on?

If not does anyone want to do something? Would be more then willing to help sort out a last minute job for a day's laning?

regards

Adam
 
that would not be tomorrow and sunday but rather the weekend after:)

Sweet! I don't really know the plains at all and can't really start thinking about it till tuesday (important exam monday and then a bit of a end of exam binge is planned)....but i have maps! If anyone knows of any decent routes or want to join in i can bring some bacon along:)

How do we find out if its a red flag weekend?
 
Yup, not this saturday but the next, Dave H's weekend off, he shoots sat, so that would work for me, have pm'd him aswell...

I will load up mem map of the plains, i have done it a few times, but not for a few months.

MMM red flag, there is a site somewhere, let me look around, let you know..


Cheers

My previous post should have read "he shoots sunday..."

Cool let me know what they say..

Punch bowl can be done.... But plains has more variety


Cheers
 
:( :( :( :( :( :(


My timing is not set correctly, and it has just been kindly pointed out to me that a 150 mile round trip and beating the truck up off road isnt a good idea untill it is sorted out..

So sorry i can tdo it :(


Cheers
 
Brilliant:)

So thats:

Myself
Airbrush
Toppa
Dave H (possibility)

Have listened to the recorded message but it only does a week in advance so i will have another listen and let you know at the weekend:)

BIG EDIT: ****** :( :(
 
OK then:) Two options..... make a bee line for some surrey lanes if your truck is up for it?

Or

Carry on with the plains:rolleyes: Andy? Do you know them at all? Last time i was there it was a great laugh but we spent half the time trying to find out where we were:o

Toppa: Wheres Ets got to?
 
Thats a ****** Toppa,tell Dave to get his **** in gear & sort your timing out.:p :D

Adam I'm still up for it,but I'm a Plains virgin.:o

If no one else chips in I might have a mate who'll come.

I'll pm you my mobile.

Andy.
 
Just been listening to the squaddy again.....still no update on next weekend. Maybe tomorrow?

The landy has a 300 mile round trip to make on wednesday/thursday as im heading down to plymouth. If all goes well it should make it but im heading to ladbrooks anyway to get my odds:D

Anyhow, i havent managed to get in contact with Stephen as he doesnt accept PM's? Ive got a few routes marked on my maps...one arround the winchester/ salisbury area...nice and easy maybe chance of some scratches. Then i also have one that starts south of swindon and works its way down the edge of the plains. Again nothing too taxing:) Thats of course if no one has any other routes. I shall have a look on wayfinder for some different ones on tuesday.

To be honest im not concerned where we go laning if its within a couple of hours driving in the landy im more then happy to do a days laning up near you. Its half way home to Bucks so i might head up north afterwards and down south the day after:eek:

Blimey this weeks fuel bill is gonna be huge:eek::(:D

Steve(Se7enup)might tag along.Also a mate of mine might come in his lightweight,I think he knows how to get to the Plains by lanes from Newbury.
