Hopefully after meeting up at this point they decided that the group was too big, maybe they held half of them back for while?

I think this is a prime example of how looking at a video or photo out of context can be highly misleading.

To me it is obvious that 2 or more groups have met up for lunch, BUT to someone else it is an example of how large groups of 4x4's are ruining the countryside.

Personally I don't think it matters how many are in a group as long as they are driving and acting responsibly towards other lane users (though I have seen a group of around 25 that was a bit OTT)

I too have been out with forby and Andygod (good guys ) I had a great couple of days bala way and after Bigboy snapped a belt we split into two groups instead of three . though the group with 5 did travel in a 2 and a 3 about 1/2 mile apart we still couldn't show our pics on here  :roll:

There is a difference between going off peast and trashing the countryside and having a few extra cars follow at a distance .

I would also again like to point out they are club guide lines ... green lanes as so often pointed out are public highways and as such are there for anyone to drive
as long as they have a lisence and a legal motor...

thats my view , I would like to point out that I am not taking sides and the mods do a great job but sometimes it may be better if some let the little things slide rather than inflaming them more  ;)

Sorry Churner but for a 2 post member you are really taking it too far ...... [-X

this is a family site and has rules to uphold that ...

It's not big and it's not clever ..

I for one am not impressed . if you want to swear and have a go personally at anyone do it somewhere else. !!!

This thread was started because some long term regular posters felt they had been judged unfairly by the posting of a video and wish to put their case .

Thats no reason for you as I see it as a long time lurker to start insulting people...!!!!

give it a rest will ya. I'm all for discussion but personal insults are a no no  [-X [-X

Hi Lee, hope you are well..?

It's good to know that we left a good impression with you and I remember the weekend in Bala as one of the more memorable trips.

I still carry the Karrabina you gave me and it's proved usefull on more than one occasion.

You generaly dont get a second chance at a first impression, I'm glad that our's (as a group) was a good one..!
Thanks for your Input.

Ive read THAT thread in work as to knackered to log on at home, I reserved judgement as I couldnt see the vid footage at work and still cant now for some reason.

I am big on preserving our right to use lanes responsibly, but looking back at some of my photos and the few vids I have to say its easy to see the preconceived conception of travelling in a group of eight, when in fact we have just me for lunch at , Say , the top of the Wayfarer, then one group sets off we give 30 or 40 minutes or a CB  message to tell they are far away then the second group set off.

This is something we do on a very regular basis on my home forum, we run regular " newbies " green laning days  and to great success as we stick to CRAG and GLASS  guidelines what ever the politics it works and it encourages the lanes to be used but not abused.

Flaming on the strength of a picture or vid is all well and good but chill a bit, it could be dinner time for two groups, or another group me anothewr group coming the other way and the chatted, it happens.

If you saw the group and there where ,6,7,8,9 and 10 you have an argument  but please lay off the flaming.

TBH with the attacks on here Im reading Im at the point of getting a hair drier to my once proud MC splat  :(

This thread and a couple of others have just been brought to my attention as being subject to abusive behaviour and that similar abusive behaviour has been levelled at other members of the club, some of it threatening.

Such activity will not be tolerated,  investigations are being made and punitive actions will be taken against those members who chose to cross the fine line between disagreeing with someone and outright abusive / offensive behaviour.
