Hi folks,

Will there be anymore events this year?  If so any idea when 'cos the diary is getting full.

I did find an event at Seven Sisters/Walters arena, South Wales  on Nov 24/25th with (dare I say it) another Jeep club . Does anyone know this site. Is anyone interested in tagging along? Any other ideas?

I've just looked at the pictures of the above site on google. All the motors are bobcats or VERY modded. Is this site OK for less extreme vehicles?

 

Thanks

I have run events there in the old JeepClub days with bone stock XJs attending. Some parts of the site are not suitable for stock vehicles but it is a big site. Your Jeep will be fine.

 

I first went there with my XJ on 235/75R15 all terrains, 2" lift, stock gears with rear factory LSD. Back then the biggest tyre was likely to be a 33".

 

If the site is heavily rutted by 37" tyres these may cause some problems for smaller tyre vehicles but that's where driver skills comes into play. There are techniques for these situations the number one being that you don't have to drive in the ruts.

Hi Phil,

 

Tuff Terrains had to be rescheduled unfortunately.

 

There will possibly be something before Kielder Forest in December !

Hi Neal

Yeah  just booked

If we get as many turning up as last year,  it would be better doing two separate groups as it was a bit of a conga line along those forest tracks at times.

 

Nice scenery if we get snow but not too deep

Just booked and paid with Northumberland Mountain Rescue, Kielder. Is there a list somewhere of who is attending?

Thanks everyone. ,Have booked Kielder and am considering Seven Sisters, partly depending on whether or not there's another JOC event before.  Phil

What about Yarwell, I know there were issues there but I heard it rumoured that it is back running again?

Still up for a Lakes/N Yorks trip ?
