Had a great day out in Thetford Forest on Sunday - absolutely loads to do on the green lane front. Not challenging at all, just nice...

Am in France this weekend.. looks like it could be worth a vist though..
Ruts on the hill seem deep, maybe come down to "level the middle a bit before trying to go up!!!

Looks like waterproffing might be required too...
oh and a little "lift"

The rutts weren't that bad when i went earier this year - they must have been repaired. They were fairly bad at the end though!

Yep, its a nice place to go if you like wading - i'm getting a snorkel before i go next time!

YO Dude; dont forget poor old roggie,just because I live in sunny Devon does n,t mean Ihaven,t got connections tother end of the country, I have family that are overdue a visit in cambridgeshire, it might only be my mother in law but I am willing to take the risk of avisit if it means off-roading the syncro!!

Hi, im still itching to see how good syncro's are off road!

Right, on the 19th i went to Mid-Norfolk off road centre (basically a load of land that you pay to mess around on) and met the owner and got his number.

See this link for the write up...

For £30 each we get to pay and play for the day. We don't have to hire the whole venue, we can just turn up after giving him a weeks notice - as long as he has space (maximum of 10 vehicles).

Anyone fancy it ? We could combine a bit of green laning the day before/after.

How about the weekend of the 13/14th of Jan ?

I can probably sort camping out if need be....

Ringo

PS. Are any of you guys in the Mud Club ? I have heard of a few syncro's on there but not met any of them yet....
