Never tried green laning? I need you.
EDIT, NOW SORTED THANK YOU.

Hi, I'm looking for somebody who has NEVER driven any green lanes and would like to give it a try.

Looking for somebody based around, or can travel to the Staffordshire/Cheshire/Derbyshire area.

2 vehicles max, around mid to late June, possibly on a Friday or Saturday.

No catches, no ties, no favours, just want an enjoyable day out.

No offroad or specialist equipment required at all, just a great appreciation for the countryside.
In fact the more standard the vehicle the better, doesn't even have to be a Defender... Just must be 4WD and pref have low-range option.

I've been taking people laning for around 15+ years so you'll be in safe hands.

Drop me a PM, or if you're not able to PM (newbie or frequent def2 observer) email me letsoffroad@gmail.com
Thanks.

Really lovely gesture Thumbs Up

If you find you need any company (with or without a newbie) from someone who cannot claim never to have driven any green roads and isn't local as you know, then let me know Whistle Rob

You don't have to be local to be fair, I was just thinking about driving this way, then 4-6 hours laning, then driving home may be a long day..
I'm sure you'll enjoy it.


I'm just trying to find a date to suit... Plus I don't have a vehicle..... Though that'll change at the weekend Thumbs Up

Great gesture Bow down I'd love to take you up on a day out one day when I'm visiting my sister in Stoke. Very Happy

Doesn't the V8 go green laning? James

The v8's done quite a bit of steady laning, the first day out after it was finished was spent across the Duchy of Lancaster's estate.
It got muddy, I was devastated Laughing
