DEVON SNOW MEET AND TREK

count me in too as long as im in the country.
Im in Andover, so if anyone passing en-route wants to meet up for a convoy ...

I'm up for it, there's a couple jimnys here who will more than likely go, we should still do it if It doesn't snow, there's a fair few lanes here witch I could help with jo king to have a route planned + top it off a a local woods witch I can ask permission for the end of the day, its used by the winch challengers. It has nice stuff + hard things if your brave.

Could be a good day out, snow or no snow

This will take place on the second day of thick snow of first weekend. whole days worth of driving mild and not so mild green lanes and road. Convoy will split at times and rv at different locations to allow for different truck to get there kicks. First meet will be over exmoor and north devon second will be from exeter to trago and back through dartmoor.
Stops will be at pubs or may be a case of bring your own food. Should be a good crack

If you want a hand with the maps and bits, give me a shout jo king, if not tell me to do one mate

Cheers

I have memorymap software, so can also map the route if required.
incidently, I know Tiverton / Collumpton quite well, the garage that looks after my TVR are down that way

ideal, its not bad here for lanes, i think i no the garage ur on about

Man this is going to be a great day Ok this is what I was planning I am after someone who can lead one team and another hopefully me leading another team I have done pretty much all the lanes but as my car is standard I think I will take the less adventurous on the more milder lanes and rv at different places ok. I am wanting some to lead who has good bit of experience with snow and ice. So r_ogilvy
seeing as you grit roads I think you could be good at the front of one team.
ooky_123 if your up for it you can lead a second team. r_ogilvy we are going to have to do a recce on some lanes are you up for this.. I'm happy to tag most of it but as I said I will opt out of the hard core tracks. We are going to need a head count and the days people will be free to take part...
Bring kinetic rope. or 12 mm nylon rope as does same job and cheap and bloody strong..

Sounds like a plan, I don't mind what I do.
I will try anything so I don't mind what lanes we do.

How many people do you think we can get?

Im happy to lead ... Hardcore is good

When are you thinking ?
Im free all over Christmas, but can negotiate the occasional weekend with the wife to letme out to play.

Have CB and PMR's

huntsham woods is pretty hardcore, thats 4 miles from tiverton,

near xmas would be good, looking at the weather at work i dont see any snow!

jo king you will have to set a date!

I would like to find out which day would get the most people.
So How many people can attend on the sat 17
How many on the 24
and how many on 31
or around the xmas period
this is the list of possible hopefuls
5 sj's 2 landys 1 nissan terano r_ogilvy, ooky_123 and me and any one else I have not mentioned on here.
And all the guys I know will be getting their mates so it could get busy :woohoo:
Just one thing.. I have gone t to a snow meet before where it was promised there would be loads there and it turned out just a friend and me went

Me personally, Im off into Hospital on the 23rd, so wont be walking / driving for a few days. 31st is out for me (family stuff). - assuming I can make a date, will either be on my own, or have my 6 yr old daugher with me (wife opted to stay at home with our 7 month old and stay in the warm / dry !)

So 17th poss. I bet your daughter loves off roading and I bet she will have a jimny one day :laugh:
I will be taking missis and one daughter. The meeting place will be halfords car park tiverton.
