        Well, a bit of a teaser first. The annual Lake District weekender went ahead and was fantastic. So nice to get out with some mates on great lanes after all this lockdown stuff. It is just a teaser, as the Blog-a-thon is underway with all the pics and vids everyone has made. Brett has plenty of work sorting though them all :laugh:  
Petteril Green Cotts causing some interesting situations :blink: :woohoo:Saturday and Sunday both saw the winch out and lane maintenance jobs, accidents and breakages for most of the crew.and... thats it about all on the trip for now

        Looks great!! And in most off-road situations you will probable not be hindered by this trailer.

        The trailer looks good enough to be the back end of a pick up.... Love the "flight deck" stuff on the screen, Joel can be a true co-pilot now lol....
Still loving the build.
Can't wait to see the blog for the trip, sounds to have been a good one.

        Lazy Sunday morning checking out some local lanes.
First up was Blindcrake. This is a lane Ive been and looked at nearly 3 years ago and reported as blocked by branches and fallen walling stone. Nothing has happened from the council or GLASS so I paid a visit with my little hand saw. It didnt take much to remove the bigger branches and shove some stone out of the way and make it passable now. Its still pretty scratchy though...
Then onto another near Caldbeck called Longlands. Popular with the walkers...
Checked out a few round Caldbeck that had no TW2 comments, one was closed as a through route and the other was just tarmac around the village green.
and finally Spittal farm on the way home. Had to divert around the farmers pickup and ended up in some really smelly stuff :sick:
Not bad for a mornings messing about seeing the sights
Off to Wales next weekend for the Henryd trip with Brett...
