Hi Cameraman, is there room for two old farmers trucks on Sunday both Steve Ray & myself are really interested in coming (not to mickey take either :wink: ). May be able to help advise on some routes as well. If any members fancy a closer look at the Stannage, we could take em up in our trucks first to see if they fancy it.

Let me know if ya can squeeze us in & I will bring our maps up. Dont mind doing the tail end of the group either if it helps closing gates :lol:

 

[Doodlebug]

A while back someone else in the club went out with simply 4x4 on a derbyshire run, and although there were meant to be 2 groups of 5 cars, they ended up in one group of 10 - hence my comment before.

TBH CRAG don't have a lot of time for Simply 4x4, they also run events around the Clywydians/Berwyns, where a lot of Crag members drive, and CRAG takes the opinion of greenlanes being open to all, and there should not be a charge made for them.

Ultimately Mike you were being led, but something to consider - under current law the police can give 1 warning for nuisance driving like laning on incorrect routes etc, then second time around vehicles can be siezed & crushed - having been led down what i now know post NERC was not a legal track anyway, I always tend to have a map and try & keep track of what is being driven.

I went out with them sometime ago so you may be referring to me. What should have been two groups constantly became 1 group of 15!! I was really embarressed on many occasions as I was the last man due to having a CB radio and therefore was the gate closer and found myself apologising to all the walkers and mountain bikers we were disturbing. Having said all this I did enjoy the day at the time because it was my fist outing and knew no better.

We had the same problem earlier in the year with a group of 13! Not been with em since, they also seem to have stopped doing Derbyshire too. We also were the tail men on this venture & copped it from the locals as 13 motors tried to cross the Bakewell Ford. Well embarrassing I can tell you.

No probs with more coming, but we will have to split into 3 groups now, so 1 more volunteer for leading 3rd group please.

Please note meet point is Bamford rail station car park and not Yorkshire bridge pub, Pub car park can no longer be used.

Thanks

If ya routes already plotted, & its on a memory map overlay, if you want to email it to me I can PM ya me address mate cos we've got all the gizmos & a 14 year old lad who can navigate very well Any help I can be mate, let me know.

 

[Guest]

Memory map overlay? I'm only just getting used to typing posts on here LOL. My routes are paper and pencil, hand written route cards, with GRs and bearings. Old fashioned mate, thats me.

Always work on the KISS method (no robobone not sheep) keep it simple stupid.

I can give you a route card on Sunday or if I can figure it out e mail it.

Working on sheets 110 and 119, Ordnance survey landranger series.

Cheers
