exosteve · 17-05-2013, 17:12

as soon as my pups are gone and im not stuck in the house I will be going wales I think

obviously I would like to use my truck a bit while im away.
im just looking at strata florida

it looks like theres a lot of fun to be had there.
i dont think I would tackle it alone for fear of getting stuck but it looks a popular place and I may try to tag along with someone.
anyone been?

I drive strata on my own. Its easy unless its been heavy rain.

stinka · 17-05-2013, 18:32

Not done strata myself, but last time I was out over Welshpool way the lads said its crap unless its rained so we didn't do it

exosteve · 17-05-2013, 20:55

Yeah ha

I'd be interested in organising a laning trip & leading a group for a weekend on some of the best lanes mid/west wales has to offer.

I'll only run a group of 6 vehicles max.

Would be interested in people who would like to come? Thinking late june or in july.

I could also help anybody in finding places to stay or camp/caravan etc

Lanes would be: Strata florida & golf-links or nant-y-moch and the other day either happy valley or brechfa. All lanes can be done in standard trucks. But ideally minimum all-terrain tyres.

No need for any recovery equipment as I have it all.

I thought it always rains in Wales

I'd be very interested

Was meant to be going up to the Highlands with the ex before I finished it so have need of a replacement trip!

(Will still go up to the Highlands and tour about on my own at some point but would love a chance to go laning!

)

Troll hasn't had anything else done to it yet bar the ATs.

Got a 3 hour offroad lesson in your own vehicle for my birthday (from my ex funnily enough) so would aim to have done that before letting myself loose in Wales!
