Where is Tixover?
Thought the bricky run was in 2 weeks time? (28th?)

Was going to try to get to that.. but may be stuffed.. family problems.... maybe something in the west norfolk area that weekend..???

Tixover is near stamford so about an hour from me (Ely).

Next event is this Saturday - but i won't be able to make that...

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!!

Blimey Roger, thats big gamble for a bit of off-roading... but then if she makes cakes as good as Julia's, gotta be worth the risk :P

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....
