No pictures of the "quest" yet.
I did take some...but they're far too big to put on here...we were hoping to use them in a magazine feature.
The weekend was a disaster for me with everything possible going pearshaped in the week running up to langdale.
Eventually turned up on the Friday ..full of cold & with about 2hrs sleep in the previous 2 days.
Set off for RHB on the Sat & it looked like a fun place, but I never made it out of the carpark as an electrical gremlin hit my 4wd.
Spent all morning at a garage trying to trace the fault ,before giving it up as a bad job.
Later ,at the caravan site when people found out the surf was still u/s ....Sumo ,Tony & Koi spent another 3hrs underneath testing & rerouting wires etc.
All to no avail...pitch black ,cold & tired ...& it still wasn,t working.
I arranged to go to langdale with the surf convoy ....but with the car u/s I fully intended going off out for the day with the family & the dog.
As I pulled out of the caravan site ...out of curiosity I flicked in the 4wd.....IT WORKED....I tried it again ...& it still worked.
We got to langdale & when I tried it again ,it still worked....so after a slight discussion ( the wife hates offroading) we all completed the course with the others.
The major disappointment was the dry weather had reduced the mud & water on the course to the extent that a lot of the regular routes were no challenge at all.
After dinner several cars set out to conquer some of the "black" routes ...& it seems this would have provided a much more entertaining day if we had started them earlier.
