A sudden laning outing. |

|
As it says, this was organised very suddenly otherwise I would |
|
have asked if anyone wanted to tag along. As it happens only 3 |
|
are going, myself Series 3 109 Station wagon , a mate called |
|
Gary Series 3 88" Pick Up and another mate in a fairly modern |
|
Jeep, maybe a Wrangler. We are meeting at Holm on Spalding Moor |
|
at 10.00 and will prob do about 6 or 7 lanes in the area but I |
|
have a feeling that Gary wants to do Rudland Rigg again. Wish us |
|
luck!! |

Forgot to take camera and my phone is an old steam powered one |
|
so sorry no pics, BUT AN AWFUL CONFESSION TO MAKE: Gary got |
|
stuck and I pulled him out - ok that's fine but then I got stuck |
|
and the Wrangler had to pull me out! Mitigating circumstances - |
|
Gary was too far forward and teetering in between two great big |
|
ruts and Richard in the jeep was in a good position to use his |
|
winch. Neither Gary or me have one of those. It was a good day |
|
out but I was surprised at how the lanes around the Yorkshire |
|
Wolds have deteriorated. We didn't make it as far as York Moors |
|
but we will be going again pretty soon. |

There was a lot of teetering done by all three of us. A lot of |
|
the ruts looked as if tractors had been down to their hubs. we |
|
had to balance on the bits in between. Not much mud around, |
|
mostly dry. |
