Copy and paste this set of co ordinates into google maps and you'll see the quarry if you use the satellite view. It's not that big a place but you can spend a couple of fun filled hours up there, and there are a couple of trails in there that you can link up to give you a challenging route. Do NOT go into the swamp though.....lol.....unless you have a winch or a mate with a winch. It lures you in and sucks you down, i speak from experience. You could also do the quarry then on the way home drop down to Doctors Gate in Hamsterley forest which is a good bit of off roading then head back to teeside.

Hi all. I'm also from the NE, in yarm, and no another lad with a jimny. We go offroading often so would be good to get a NE jimny laning day some time.

As for tyres I got BF Goodrich all terrains and I am very happy with them. I've got a 2004 green hardtop with t/box guard and tyres.

Hi Chaps, especially the Northern boys, I have been a bit of a lurker until now but finally got round to subscribing.
I’m Geordie who too has been bitten by the Jimny bug and also think us Northerners should get together for a trip out if you all fancy it.
I have ridden (Bikes and Quads) on the green lanes of Northumberland for five years up until 18 months ago, With occasional trips to the lakes and IOM.
I have a good knowledge of all legal lanes round Hexham, Alston, Allendale, down to Teesdale and would be happy to lead a group if we could get one organised, or North Yorkshire/Moors would be good if someone else could lead it.

Anybody interested?

Sorry to highjack your thread crock and its probably in the wrong section but I just wanted you and the Northern lads to see it, hope you don’t mind.
