September 12/13/14th.
OK folks, who`s up for a treasure hunt over 24 hours starting at 6.00pm (evening) and finishing 6.00pm (evening). The route will be all legal lanes and it will be none stop driving, each truck will need a co-driver/navigator, and the route map will be given out at the start. Minimum of 2 trucks per team (all trucks must have working CB`s. There will be marker/collection points (information) on route to prove you have completed the course. The route will involve lanes in Cumbria & NY Dales National Parks & will also involve having a pub finish. The challenge will start on a Friday evening so there will be the chance to camp over on the Saturday night & chill on Sunday before heading off for home. Any names please must be per team (2 trucks). This is open to other clubs if you wish to invite friends along.

sorry but yes, as with all G/Lanes, your truck has to be legal, as well as the lanes there will be extra challenges thrown in on the way, teams will be coloured, ie; red team, blue team, etc. there will be items to collect that are colour matched to your team and these items must end up at the finishing post unbroken and in your truck.:peace::peace:

ok, a few little rules. maximum 9 teams. (18 trucks) all trucks must have. 1) a spare road legal wheel inflated/jack and wheel brace. 2) a basic first aid kit. 3) a tow strap with shackles. 4) a shovel/spade. 5) working head lights/main beam. 6) waterproofs for each person in your truck + spare dry cloths. 7) walking boots/strong foot wear.  a compass & maps ( map numbers will be posted later) 9) a working torch/spare batteries 10) a camp stove/kettle/frying pan/etc.(tea/coffee/breakfast food) 11) drinking water 12) blankets/sleeping bags for all people in your truck. 13) a working CB (channel 22 needed.) none essentials 1) rad-weld 2) basic tool kit 3) tent(if your camping Saturday night) 4) a good book to read while you wait for recovery This event is being ran as a treasure hunt for fun, there is no challenge/race/trial/or competition implied, those who take part are aware that the organisers/clubs involved will accept no responsibilty/claim for damage or injury to any parties involved (including third parties). All participants will be expected to drive within the law and follow all driving codes while on green lanes. Each participant must make sure their insurance & the co-drivers is upto date and legal. There will be a dis-claimer to complete & sign and hand in before you set off !! and a home contact number will be needed. ( just incase you give up & go home) Each team of 2 trucks will have a 15 minute gap when setting off, but all participants are expected to help other teams should there be a problem that the team can not sort out themselves.(does not include map reading) This will be a very good event if the spirit of it is there, it`s a laugh:peace: a bit of fun:peace: and like all laning events it will be a great social get together afterwards to tell all your tales.:drum::drum:
