You should have tried the pub meet, we could (and still can) show you some gentle places to try it, and get more and more extreme until you've had enough or get bitten by the bug  :wink:

Next one is Wednesday 2nd August  :D

Sorry TimM couldnt make it to the pub meet next one is on the list though. The play day near me seems abit extreme guys with their 90's with huge tyres and suspension we havent got that far yet lol so seems abit odd if we asked to join in lol what do you think?


Anybody know of any1 in derbyshire that could show us the ropes?

Never be afraid to ask.
Bear in mind them guys started out just like yourself.

If you don't mind travelling down to Cannock, try Bofa4x4 They have an event Saturday. It may be full, but email Colin and he'll let you know.
It may seem expensive, but it's a good day. Greenlaning and a little more extreme if you want it to be. You're never pressurised to do something you don't want to, and  advice is always aplenty.  :wink:
