Just back from an excellent weekend at the Birmabright Weekend in the Czech Republic.

It was a great event - although a long way to travel, but well worth the effort of getting there, and great to meet so many other nationalities.

This was the event

After a long, slow trip on the Friday we arrived at the campsite. They were very friendly and the facilities were really good too. Then Keith (aka Sweaty Sock) turned up and came and joined us in our tent. We had a good evening just sitting chatting and chilling out, ignoring the rain that was tapping on the tent roof.

We were up early the following morning, with the sun shining, had bacon butties and then we were off. We did a couple of lanes that Keith had done before. On one particular corner of one of the lanes, the rear drivers wheel found some very loose mud and it slid into a big hole as you can see below.

Members of LandyTown have taken to the Peak District for a pleasant day of green laning.

Plenty of lanes were packed in to the day by Robert Dove and Mat13, who led a group each; one featuring the long wheelbase vehicles, including two Range Rovers and a Defender 110, and the short wheelbase vehicles, which were exclusively 90s.

The weather was typically English, with bursts of sunshine partnered with drizzles of rain, but nothing that could dampen the mood of the day, or spoil the amazing views on show.

Overall, the day was a huge success, with everybody thoroughly enjoying themselves and the lanes driven.

So, the trip was to get Mrs Sweatysock a bit accustomed to greenlaning, camping and just being thrown about in the LR90. Thought therefore would start with Strata and surrounding lanes. Great day, weather and nothing mental...such that Mrs Sock enjoyed the day and may well just release more funds to keep the 90 ticking along...happy days. Few mild photos for your entertainment...and for a starter she did so well!
ps. trouble when your missus comes with you is you have to wash
