[oneintheeye]

a guy off the pajero owners club is going to send me some lane ideas around north wales he's asked what sort of lanes we want to do ie easy medium muddy boggy hard going ect i'm not fused which sort of route we take, but if anyone coming dos'nt fancy hard going boggy lanes then we can look at some gentle ones

[stormforce]

yeah but your lucky enough to live in a great part of the country, will be down there loads next year with the caravan blocking your roads up (sorry lol)

If your down here next year then give us a shout and we'll meet up

[Nostromo]

Tyres fitted but couldnt seem to bleed heater. think its totaly blocked. Water going in one side, drip coming out of other side. Looks like i'll still be using the hot water bottle in the mornings.
Paid a visit to the camel trophy guy. Best he could recommend was join GLASS. He said there are some good lanes around Llangollen but he didnt know where they were. Just having a look on the web for any other info, will post tonight,

Found these maps on a landy site just west of llangollen, route highlighted in blue. Driver recons its a six hour route in total that he has travelled in a surf.
Bent a side step.

i think we're planning our first trip to cornwall at easter so if we're anywhere near you then defo give you a shout and meet up for a beer and chat or the like.
i've heard there are some good lanes around llangollen and that area so if you've got the routes then we could do them and have a day of it

would have trouble bending my side steps there in the back garden lol was the first thing i removed off my truck

[Nostromo]

Just had a reply on the landy forum. Parts ot the llangollen route appear to be in poor condition and other parts have now been closed.

Out of ideas, sorry.
Considered removing my side steps yesterday while changing my tyres over. Seems like the obvious thing to do with them as they are pretty useles as steps and not really much use as rock sliders. Tubular steel supports have rotted through anyway.

So, still happy to meet up for some fun on the 19th with anyone who has any ides on where to go.

[oneintheeye]

i've got some lanes on my sat nav if we can do some of the route you've got we could play the rest by ear i want to get out for some fun still, i'm sure we can find enough lanes to make a day of it

[Nostromo]

OK will do. The route I have starts at Tyn-Y-Celyn 2 miles west of Glyn Ceriog which is 2.7 mile south of Llangollen.
Simon, You would probably travel west for 15 mile fom a place called Chirk which is on the A5. Or the B4579 from Oswestry.
If you fancy meeting in Glyn Ceriog Sat morning then game on.
Email me your phone number and I will ring you

Anyone else coming

PS (edit)
Just gone back on the landy forum. The original post is 4 years old.
Think I may have p*****d them off as they have removed my post from their forum and there is a string of posts saying the route is closed and dont drive it. I hadn't read the entire 4 year history and hadn't realised that this had been mentioned previously. Touchy or what.

Can still travel the routes in your sat nav and maybe look at this one along the way.

If you fancy following the route in TOR magazine ?I can vouch there are some nice lanes in that. If none of you have a copy then I could sort one out for you. It runs from Colwyn Bay to Wrexham. The first bit is quite a bit of tarmac but the second half is quite good, plus its a laff tryin to read the bugger.


It runs throughg Moel Vam(whatever) ..... so could be part of the lanes you mentioned. Wayfarer is closed so that counts that out.

[Nostromo]

Yes to explorer
not bothered how we feed ourselves
and yes to copy of TOR, cheers Bibs, how will you get this to us.
Could collect on the day as your in Chester.
