Thinking back to the excellent day on Sat 8th March - Thetford Green Lane Rideout - Novice/Big trailie friendly as organised by Abel and Gunboat Willy, I was wondering if you guys are planning another, i'll even get some new tyres to hopefully stop me from "paddling" in the sand? Please?
 
Brian, I did the first part of the run we did on sunday evening. Large sections of it are under water, couple that with the amount of tractors coming on and off the field at the moment and those tracks are quickly turning into large areas of swamp!!
A couple of places in particular (if you look at the ride report youll spot them) where the tracks go down into a dip, have filled with water. One place in particluar is very deep and the 4x4`s have been taking different routes through it and as a result the swamp is now 6 lanes wide.
The last bit of the first section (where the guy parked his bike up the tree) is even worse. Although some might like the challenge of taking a gs though it( I was in first gear in places, with both feet down! ) i would say it would be some time before those tracks are suitable.

Thanks Tony, I guess that's what our wonderful summer weather has given us then! As for taking the Gs into deep water, think i'll pass on that one, I don't mend getting the bike or me filthy but I still have to drive home to Royston after. If you fancy a run out somewhere more suitable i'd be happy to tag along.
