Not sure how many people are 'friends' of Brett or I on Facebook, but Brett announced this morning on there that we won't be publishing any blogs in future. It's felt by members of "our little group") that the maps, lane names and videos with lane names on the title or narrated by Brett, can lead to the abuse of such lane information by others not so responsible as us, so it's best that we no longer publish such information.
That said, I have posted some photos earlier today on Facebook, and will post similar here on my build thread, but they won't contain any lane information or names, just enough to show we had a great day out
Dam shame to have to do this, but needs must...
So, we had a nice day out on the Lleyn Peninsula -
The sticky-out bit on the side of Wales
We met at the Trawsfynydd Visitors centre, left to right - Adam and Johnathan, Brett, and me and Alan. This was my first trip with the main group since recuperating after Pneumonia and a Diabetic DKA episode at the beginning of the year. I'd 'laned locally a few times, bit not travelled far from home until now.
The view from the visitor centre on the shore of the reservoir.
As usual, we started with a hearty breakfast, and the set our to drive some 'lanes!
Climbing up after leaving the tarmac...
Up until we found...
A fallen tree across the 'lane, probably from storm "Hannah" that hit the UK on Saturday...
Out came the trusty cordless chainsaw...
And Brett's winch...
And we soon had the tree out of the way...
On we go
Bluebells along the way
Another 'lane
A narrow "Jimny gate" :lol:
Stunning scenery...
Lovely little rock bridge
Lined up on the bridge...
Stunning white water just yards from the 'lane
But we're thwarted by this gate that is even yoo small for a lickle Jimny!

So we about turn and climb back up the 'lane...
Passed the cascading waters again...
A church literally in the middle of nowhere!?
A blocked (new to us) 'lane towards the end of the day...
Brett and Alan walked it first to check it was clear, and then Brett knocked on the door and politely asked the resident to move his car...
And on we went...
A great ford at the bottom of the descent (but a badly timed photo?!) :lol:
And up the other side...
And the end of a great day!
We drove a lot more 'lanes than these, these are just the highlights with no names or locations of 'lanes shown... Sad to have to do it, but needs must!...
