Sorry to be so slow in picking this up - been slaughtered with work over the last couple of months.

We plan to be there and give the silverbullet WBX 2.5 its first off road test!

Is this a family event or a more serious blokes and 4x4's ? I have a westfalia club joker so no off road for me I'm afraid.

Could be up for it if I can get a hall pass and blag a ride, if only to see how that motor performs!

Syncronauts events are always family friendly, if a little hard on the liver...

Family friendly mate. Even with your van you could still come and co-drive with someone. To be honest, except for the quarry day, you'd probably b alright for the green lanes.

I might bring the BMW GS if there are going to be green lanes! Sounds fun. I might try and come along

Hi

Is it OK if we come Friday night and Saturday during the day only? We already have plans for the rest of the weekend.

It's what a few people do. Should be fine I'd think.

I will be there with the Allroad as like everyone else, too busy with other jobs to look at the Syncro, not sure if Julia will be there, she is no longer into wild camping or off roading.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon :D

ahh you poor sod, fancy having to go there!

We won't be there either, you lot smell and look funny! - joking aside, It's just bad timing, have exams coming up and there is already a mass family holiday which is eating into available time. Have fun :ok
