One ticket per vehicle required & you must be a member of the club (easy to join). Spectators welcome. Unfortunately, the site has increased their hire charge since our last visit in 2018, so we’ve had to increase our ticket price to accommodate for this.

Platinum Member frosty Posted April 5, 2023 Platinum Member Share Posted April 5, 2023 in the past when i have been there, the owners have had a restriction on tire diameter, to prevent some routes becoming too " rutted", do you know if there is any restrictions at the moment.

Platinum Member Wildjeeper62 Posted April 5, 2023 Platinum Member Share Posted April 5, 2023 As you can see on the pIctures above the black Jeep following Paul is mine at the last attendance of JOC at Tong and I was and still am on 37in tyres. I think that was 2 or 3 years ago but not sure of the date. Unfortunately I won't be able to attend this year as I will be at the Jeep's Week event in France.

Fireman Iain Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 I've only made 1 JOC meet before, and really enjoyed it. Tong is pretty much just up the road from my girlfriends place, but we're at a wedding do the night before. I'll have to do some negotiating but hope to see you there.

Platinum Member eastbournesmiths Posted April 9, 2023 Platinum Member Share Posted April 9, 2023 Looks a great venue but sadly we had booked a short break thinking Summer Camp may be at Slindon so we are the wrong end of the country on the 16th. Have a great time and hopefully there will be other opportunities to visit Parkwood with JOC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Melh Posted June 1, 2023 Platinum Member Share Posted June 1, 2023 Hi. Booked in for the day and thinking of making a few days as it’s quite a way for us. Is there any green laning nearby to parkwood that we could do on the Saturday, and if so, is anyone else planning to do any?

I saw this evens posts on Facebook so I thought that I would bump this up on the forum as I had not seen many details here. Apologies to those who have seen my post. I am no longer in the loop when it comes to events or the running of JOC but I am still a Jeep freak. I hope that that whoever is unwell is ok Edited July 13, 2023 by JimC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
