not too bad!... just been out with the trusty jet washer!
worst thing is the scratching fron the bushes!... gonna polish through the paint to get them out!

Good pics, nice to see it off tarmac.

Get a good thick layer of wax on it, then the bushes will just slide along it.

Thats Bucklebury Ford isn't it? I had a look at it a few weeks ago but decided not to try it as I was on my own. Went through the main ford a few times though, and managed to spash nicely - shame there was noone with a camera handy!! Be good to know where the track is though??

Great - I'll give it a try some time.

I've found a couple to the south of Basingstoke (out the back of Cliddesden - but they're a bit boring right now as very dry - shd be more fun after a bit of rain

Just bought a map showing all the local green lanes and byways - there are quite a lot to the South of Basingstoke.
I shall try them out at the weekend, if they are any good maybe we shd organise a date for a few of us local surfers to have an outing (once we've had a bit of rain??)
