Weather looking perfect! Bit of sun for great photos or drone and a few sprinkles to make tracks fun!

 

Unfortunately I am unable to attend as in hospital but Mrs Volante165 due to be on hand for check in etc.

 

Have fun!

Great photos Caroline, looks like you all had an amazing day 😎 ................................ although it does look like your Renegade spent most of the time cocking its leg and marking territory 😱    🤣🤣🤣

Gr8 day out had by all old and new I reckon. Many thanks to Jon and all administrators for organising it all.  Get well soon Jim.

A few pictures of the oldies (like me?)  Also a little video taken by my Jeep enthusiast friend Jerry (Snowden), many thanks to you too. This left hand bend looked fairly easy to the unwary but probably provided more entertainment on the day than other  challenges due to its liberal helping of very slippery, rutted clay with protruding rocky bits. Sorry about my dithering at the beginning but this is what happens when one's electronic nearside mirror packs up. Did anyone spot the sapling that reached out and turned it out of adjustment? Many thanks for sorting it out James(?) and what a super yellow TJ you have. After me making a hash of it an expert shows how its done!  LOL.

Well, sorry  folks Dinosaur has done it again, I can't download the video. It says its too big ! Is it possible? Can anyone help? I'll try it in a separate post!

What is it with Renegades cocking their legs ??????????????????????????????????????

Is it just a Renegade thing? 🤔

Is it because being small they have to mark everywhere they go???????????????? 🤣🤣🤣

looks good, but my renegade went through several times in all the water like that, with a lot less drama. Racchine did get water all over her bonnet and soak the air filter those, we didn’t get stuck though 🙂

how did you get stuck ?

That sounds gr8 Raakee. Glad you got home ok!

Being a dino I don't understand what you mean about a video. I've tried all I know and I can't post mine. What does compress it mean?  Do I have to sit on it?  Perhaps I should ask my grandson!

I was the recovery anchor. The White/ brown wrangler tried coming over the middle hump which isn’t an exact route. He made it through the second time if you watch the video with the tree in the middle of the screen.

Ha ha. I means change the formatting so that the file size is smaller. Usually compromising video quality though. 

Anyway, here is the video. I used TikTok to get it smaller.

Fun while it lasted. Engine bay is wiped down so it looks sorta dirty, filter is still a bit damp. Will take my hairdryer to it
