Some photos of the weekend

Many thanks to Ian and DC for the info that persuaded me to go along with a D3 despite the warnings of scratches and dents.  It fitted through most of the sections, and on the ones where the trunks of the trees were closer together than 2m, Tim was kind enough to give me a run through in his 90. No scratches, although the soft needles drew fantastic lines in the thick layer of dust.

A fantastic day out with some spectacular views never seen by tourists.  I'll go back! Here is a link to some photos on the D3 forum site (simply as I've not figured out how to include them here yet!)  http://www.disco3.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=4285

Another excellent weekend,  brilliant tracks superb weather and one of our oldest and longest tracks severely trimmed back from 4 feet width to possibly allow Stobarts wagons through  Saturday was our usual run through about twelve of our favourite trails, the weather being so nice made recoveries very few throughout the day.
Our two tracks on the highest parts of the forest were superb and after our rock hauling on the Friday the worst sections were more easily passed through. Our Sunday run up to the Plateau was up to its usual standards as all vehicles behind us got caught by the boggiest section on the top..Everyone mucked in to help the stuckies and after an hour of recoveries we were all on the move once more..The downhill track was also severely overgrown so  our work party got to work and cleared the worst parts in jig time .. Although Sunday was a supposedly work day we drove 6 routes including our  "JUST BE CAREFULL UP HERE LADS" ridge track which always requires a bit more care and concentration,everyone was superb and no recoveries were needed..So again a brilliant weekend and VMAV had no vehicle breakdowns this time out..We made a donation to the McMillan Cancer Trust and bofabill donated some very nice stickers even tho a slight spelling mistake meant a slight alteration was required to correct the error.Thanks to all who came along and made this another fun and amusing weekend...IAN
