I just bought a Surf and have never tried off roading. Any recomendations as to how to get started?

ifn you want a weekend camp and off roading and laning in September put your name down in srtts thread in the off road section.
Have a chat with thelovelyboyo as hes from Wales and goes out laning in Wales a bit,or just keep an eye open for anything local-ish to you or england with one of the other meets.You will always be made welcome and don't worry about never doing off roading before as we all had to start somewhere

DON'T GO ALONE!

Before you go off road make sure you have at least one other vehicle with you, pref who has been off road before. Also make sure you have a good tow rope and somewhere to fix it to on both vehicles.

If your not sure if you can make it over / around an obstacle DON'T try on your first trip.

Remember as well that you are likely to scratch / dent the truck.

That looks a bit sunk Andy...

Yeah, always happy to trot over to Wales on free weekends (of which I get one or two occasionally)

I'm just outside Pontypridd. I won't be going off road for a while. I won't be taxing it until the 1st May and that's assuming it goes through the MoT and I'm away for the 1st two weekends of May, but maybe at the end of May I will give it a go if I got the b@lls!
