LRE West Country Defender (only) days
Which months are you most likely to be/happiest to go on one?

How many would you go on, would different routes influence your choice?

How important is daylight (i.e. driving off road, going home straight after in the dark)?


My personal choice is from now (March) until the end of October for longer evenings.

I would be tempted if there were different routes (having done 2 Exmoors last year, 1 the May D-day) Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender

Having also done both defender only days on Exmoor last year, I would perhaps prefer a change of scenery.
I don't know whether its possible to have a defender only course in east Devon? I guess its depends on if a challenging route can be devised!
I have no preference to dates. Perhaps an evening/night drive would be fun Thumbs Up

Perhaps a full day (or 2) on David Bowyer's course? I know it is familiar to some people here, but the scope is appealing, as also would be recovery vehicles. Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world.

we offer and run these on DBORC, its nothing to do with LRE, a separate post really?

the 6 Apr has one from D2 forum taking up the offer so i would suggest they are not that popular here. Cheers
