General Wades Military

[yoshie]

Have any Scottish members driven this road up by Loch Ness
It looks like one of the only lanes we can run without permission due to our $$$$py right of way laws.

Anyone fancy a Scottish meet maybe at Mad on Mud in Perthshire once we get the new year hang over cleared? I going to take a membership soon I can then take visitors on at £15 a day, 365 acres to play on. It has club house and for the shiney club wash bays. Maybe include a winter BQ?

I might be up for it. But as I've never been off road before, perhaps I should take a lesson or 2 first?

Wade built many miles of road in the Highlands, some of which are still in use today but he didn't build as many as General Caulfield who built even more.
Are you enquiring about Wades road over the Corrieyarrick which runs from Laggan to Fort Augustus which is at the south end of Loch Ness ?

Hiya
I'd like to join you ,if you dont mind a newbie surfer tagging along. My Surf is still stock with no mods including original tyres. Not sure if this will do or do i need to make some ammendments first. Ive been looking for an oppertunity to get smoe mud on my truck and dont mind the drive up from Lancashire. Let me know if possible.
I should also mention i've no experience of off roading ang will understand if you'd rather not.
Cheers

Your more than welcome mate im sure, and a stock surf will still shock you at its capabilities, i had mine on roads tyres for long time and never got totally stuck (close though). Best thing to do is follow experienced ones and pick the same lines.

[blackpoolsparks]

wow mate, I REALLY appreciate it
Ill keep my eyes open for updates on the forum.

[The Lang-Shankit Scunner]

be prepared to aquire scratches and the odd dent, and maybe grate your rear bumper along the ground. Does yours sufcfer wiv SAS?

Pics would be good

[blackpoolsparks]

If by SAS you mean sagging at the rear, then no. I do have a towbar fitted though, which can be removed beforehand. Scratches and dints are anticipated , even sought after. I also have that annoying fog light mounted under the rear off side quarter, which i'm assuming will need to be removed.

I have a towe equipe tow bar yes it does drag on the ground sometimes. Mine is also a stock non moded vehicle but I have been in some very extreme places and to date have only wrecked the front bumper by being too ambitious trying to jump a bl00dy big ditch.

Still waiting for a Surf train to help with delivery of another front bumper.

I have a saggy ar$e now so has my truck.
