Hi
Hi Graham,. sorry to read your bad news. We will need to contact Bill Telford first before we removed any stones on the track and was there much oil spillage ? because I can sort that out tomorrow for you.

I have quite few hanggliding L/E tubes and making a couple of tripods will be no problem. They will collapse down to aprox 7ft long (telescopic) and will do just the job

check out
Check out the ordinance survey charts there are plenty of roads all over the place Steve + there are loads of good 4x4 tracks no problems there. Our club should be flying this side of the Cheviots more often there is huge potential for some great flights.

Yellow lines
The motorist are to blame.. they used to park there and block the road when they tried to get up in icy conditions. The yellow lines stopped all that so now the 4x4's can get up with no problems
