It was all snowy the last time we were there! Should I go out as I haven't got a clamshell fitted and I have yet to make my front bashplate :?

I don't remember anything that would likely damage the underneath. Just muddy lanes wasn't it?

I did a few a couple of weeks ago and none apart from ride lane were challenging. These were done without rear bash plate on.

Neil bring your chainsaw please. There were a couple of fallen trees laying right across the lane.

I did notice a few lanes had been closed for the winter. :cry: I don't know if that is the norm but the signs looked pretty new to me.

I drove a couple of lanes local to my mums place in Hampshire today and a couple of those had signs informing about temporary (10 week) lane closures for maintenance. Might be worth checking the local council site for info?

I have a spare one if needed?
I don't have the rods for it though as I had to cut them off.

Well we've got to have something to rescue, but better pack a spare driveshaft or two for the torque monsters :wink:

I now have 5 joints and 3 shafts on board so I should be ok. On second thoughts you better bring them just in case.
