Happy days

Lets see how much parking we need first!
But yes the base is available to us should we need it.

If you are definitely not coming please let me know and I'll get the heat list updated!!
Good luck everyone and see you tomorrow.

Will the little roads into the Caldicot estate be ok in the morning, or is the frost gonna make it a no-go zone?

Dont want to travel 1.5 hours to get stuck at the last few yards. Maybe you should have your spades at the ready to help dig us in. LOL

Well i just tested the water a few minutes ago...
The road from Ledbury to Ross was clear as anything.
I just dont know which route to take tommorow?
Any suggestions as to which might be easier/less trouble. I usually come south from monmouth alongside the river, but it is very hilly and windy coming into chepstow..

Is the A40 and A449 towards newport then back east on the A48 worth a shot? I have never come that way.

Of course there is always the motorway! LOL

I dont imagine the estate roads will be impassable at all

I would go for the 40 & 449 route mark, probably quicker too

Well I know this might be a little late...arrived at the hall at about 2pm, got into the estate and car park no probs. Bit slippy if your stupid, but fine if your careful.

Left at about 10pm, drive straight out, again slippy, but fine! There will be plenty if people around to help if you need a shove any way

Hopefully see you tomorrow if it's all ok at your end too!!!

Sorry for the late notice but I aint gonna make it...the car was all packed up ready to go but where I live Crynant and Seven Sisters is totally inpassible because of overnight ice, none of the roads have been gritted/cleared so I cant get to the m-way.

Excellent meeting today fellas! Enjoyed the track, once I got into the groove. Grip seemed to come up nicely in last two qualifiers, which was nice.

Might see some of you at Hereford in Jan for the 10th Off-Road Meeting....who knows.
