Greenlaning Video – April in the Lanes
Here’s the video of our trip last week in the greenlanes of north somerset.
SnowTime!
A Landrover really comes into it’s own in this weather – Landrover owners everywhere having been getting out and about all over the UK as it’s blanketed with snow, while other car drivers skid and slide and get stuck in hedges! Some Landrover drivers are helping out with their local emergency response teams – I’ve done one rescue so far, and elderly lady and family stuck in a Saab estate unable to get back home after a trip to the doctor – They were only a quarter mile from home and I was able to help her get back in, with the aid of a step I keep in the back. But it’s a great feeling of invincibility you get with a Landy in this weather, and being able to really Get Out there and enjoy what is absolutely stunning winter wonderland scenery is just fantastic – no need to be stuck indoors in this weather. Here’s a video of a quick local trip.
Basic Off Road Preparation Guide
My local Landrover club the North Somerset Landrover Club have provided this useful guide to basic off-road preparation on their website. It includes advice on your vehicle, suitable tyres etc. winching points, the Greenlaning Code of Conduct ( from GLASS The Green Lane Association ) and how to travel safely in a multi-vehicle convoy. See http://www.nslrc.org.uk/Prep.html.
