Instead of going to Wales me and Gaz thought we would give
the Cheltenham Stroud area a bash....
It's been a while since i rode that area so it's overdue for a visit

No shortage of water :thumb2

Gaz sent me off to find out :augie ..Then he skimmed across the surface on the 650 :rolleyes:

Another good days trail riding and not in Wales for a change :thumb2
Cheers Gaz :beerjug:
 
Here's the video of Garry going through the mini-swamp.
At great personal sacrifice I got showered in crap again especially when he nearly got stuck near the start :D

Another great day though. Thanks Garry:thumb
 
Looks like fun i live local but dont know these lanes any chance you could post the locations.:thumb2
 
Great shots chaps!:clap:clap

Likewise - I live in the area (just North of Chelt) - were they all legal lanes we could find on a map?

Next time you are down this way, would be happy to show you some of the lanes around the kineton area

Great pics of a superb trail riding area! :clap

I think I recognise your last lane from our Big Trailie Run with the TRF in February '07... :D

Glad that you seem to have as much fun in our neck of the woods as we have in yours... :thumb2
 
Any chance of posting the GPS tracks or waypoints for this ride?
