The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Isnt snow great. Unless you are in a wagon. Ive had a great week going from stockton to leicester then today i have had to load for stirling. Despite having 29t on she just didnt wana grip. That wasnt really relevant as the A1 got closed at grantshouse. So im sat in purdy lodge truckstop checking the web.

Have fun be sure to use protection out there.
