Just got home, and will be off to bed shortly so will get pics sorted out tomo eve.
but was good day out, rain mud and water makes the lanes different and fun. panters bridge was great
, look forward to a dry spell to try it upwards.
Was funny watching all the jap cars, including crocs rav and the jimmny driving up a lane, then standing around to watch the new disco army getting stuck. for all the slating jap cars get at being poor offroad.
Thanks to Lee for the route and Matt for leading.

well believe it or not
i have had a text and a message regarding that lane asking how we managed to drive up it
easy i replied we drive mitsubishi was my first reply
my second reply was we drove over or around the rock
apparently all the landrovers got stuck in the lane
even chunkster and the family drove it without any issues

It was a very enjoyable day. The disco did very well on the maiden voyage. Thank you for a great day. Me and the family really enjoyed it.
It is surprising how much the lanes I know so well have changed over the last couple years.
Hopefully the next trip will be a dry one. look forward to the photos.

Absolutely fantastic day despite the weather. Nice to meet new faces as always and a pleasure to go out with regulars. I thoroughly enjoyed myself as did brother in law.
Till the next time

Mental day out wet and windy but that made it interesting,even after owning my truck for just over a year i am still amazed at how it can get up and down those lanes .
Many thanks to Lee for being co-pilot and showing me the way even after he said turn right and i for some reason turned left
Photos to follow ,great to see some new faces and trucks .

kar.mat
it would appear that you have caught the
nev syndrome
this is a
24 hour laneing bug
that you can only catch on sundays
it makes you lose all sense of direction,you may feel dizzy and you will definately lose the ability to do as you are told
all in all yet another great days fun

Well just watched the video and looking back it all looks quite easy.
Panters bridge looks so easy but I did need to check I hadnt soiled myself!
But I am sure it will all become less daunting as time goes on.
Most off all thanks everyone for a good day and great memories
