A certain Fabia with a lowered sub frame "might" have struggled I think!

Glad you all had a nice day and yes the weather does help.

Thanks for looking,

A quick thanks to everyone for a great day out, very enjoyable. Will post some pics up and hopefully some steady video footage when we get home.

Karl & Caroline

looks like you lot defo had a great time, gutted that i was working nevermind, hopefully next time.

It was a great day, will load pics in next few days

Very "photo shop" some of those picture with the Yeti's you would think that they were on the cover of some magazine. Well done those camera men (sorry "camera people").

Especially "Winston" now where did that name come from? :rofl:

Churchill's family would agree. :happy:

What do you mean - plenty of ground clearance Danny

Karl

It was the guy with the red Fabia, sorry I have forgotten :blush: his name. I would have got my bike along there albiet quite slowly :happy: .

In fairness it wasn't too rough, I would have happily taken my previous cars along the route, only a few places where the ridge in the middle of the road was quite high, I even moved to one side or the other in the Yeti as I had too big lads in the back and of course Winston....

As for the quarry bit, I wouldn't have done that with my previous cars

Some more pictures that I took during the weekend.

On the way up crossing the Black Mountains we bumped into a BMW meet

Oops must admit zero ground clearance :blush:

Will sort some video out of the Yeti's in the next few days

Caroline and I had a great day out. Nice to meet some lovely people and a big thank you to Richard for organising it and also to the Yeti owners for putting up with our extra weight.

Karl

No proble, Karl and it was good fun.

And Caroline only squealed once!!

Washed the car on the work tonight and find I have a very large clump of grass stuck in the NSF corner of the bumper, I think from when we tried to get out of the way of the last 4x4 group.

So when is the next meet? How about contacting Land Rover in Speke for use of their off road track? Maybe...
