Title: Which do i choose???
Post by: Edge on April 20, 2006, 21:11:28

In a bit of a quandry here guys/gals :? .
All set with camping gear, BUT......which do I choose :?:

A/    Drumclog....camping from Friday and playing all weekend in 1500 acres of mud/woodland/rivers/Mud & more mud?

B/     Driffield.....camping from Friday and buying needed bits for my 90 cheaper than shop/net prices/Beer/vodka/probably some off roading (but aint sure).


Could do both...but it would mean a 234mile trip on sat night :cry: , dont really fancy that.

Suggestions Please.....

Driffield aint that special to be honest.  I wouldnt travel far to get there.  It aint too bad for Me though.

Drumclog...

As said, Driffield is just another show... and a lot of 'Show Specials' aren't actually all that special anyway

Never been to a show before, its 234 miles from Drumclog to driffield, its a lot less from my home.
Are there other shows up this way this year???

DEFINATELY Drumclog

The site is huge... I mean really really huge. There is soft rutted stuff for those who like a challenge, and hard solid stuff for those not so adventurous. Is it the best off-road site in Scotland? Quite possibly so. Water, mud, grass, (sheep) and I'm sure we will organise a run or two to the off-licence for the evening entertainment.

True...
         ...but you'll miss the gathering!  :(

But then having realised this month I have completely wiped out the financial advantage of giving up smoking by fixing the broken motor, I can sympathise with the cheap parts bit!  :roll:

The cheap bits i was after are Wheels and 35" tyres.....my wheels are rusting severely and my 235/85 machos are going onto the ex-MoD 90. The reason for the 35" tyres is a lot more ground clearance and the fact i'll only be going to play days in the future, not any RTV or TYRO events.
