I've come across a few sites where people have been bragging about their lane-wrecking day out, all from links on the mud club. I'm certainly not about to sift through it all to prove it, but the last one I looked at was a suzuki owner's site who called his truck "tonka toy" and is on

but this was only one ofthe people on mud club like that. Some months ago shortly afterjoining mud club I also saw a post from someone asking for decent mudruns in Dorset and complaining that the local FoDRoW group didn'treally do such things so they were looking for others with whom to gomud plugging on local lanes.

OK, perhaps you need to turn your monitor on ;-)

Organise a fun day for local kids & families in the middle of nowhere, rounders, football, berbeque/picnic [1], that sort of thing - perhaps to support MacMillan (my pet charity, plus they are not averse to off-road activities). Even if it doesn't come off, it's a good fence mending oportunity. Possibly tie it in with an Unofficial to show how nice the chaps and chapesses on a.f.l are. Er, actually.......

I've always had some fantasy about loading the back of the pinz up with old folk from a local home and capering off up the hillside, preferrably with a sexy nurse in the passenger seat ;-)

Something along those lines will be on the cards at some point in the next year, if it's an idea that can be done in a legal manner.

The old folk or the nurse?

I don't care how I do the nurse! The old folk can go take a running jump though ;-)

That hardly justifies the the 'lots of people who swap locations' comment does it! You are labelling a forum because of a handful of posts out of many thousands. There's the odd idiot post on A.F.L. on occasion but I don't tar all of the posters on here as a result.

I didn't say it was all of them, and you did retort that it was completely untrue which it isn't, so please don't complain that I wasn't exact..

You cant have spent that much time on the mud club forums! Ive seen Neil and co do a lot of moderating and removing of things like that (which never seems to be popular with a lot of users but they still do a lot of it)

I've hardly spent any time on there, perhaps I've been unlucky and found mud freaks every time?

So removing mud-plugging stuff from a web site called "mud club" isn't popular with the userbase who according to some, don't like mud plugging?

Something doesn't quite add up there ;-)

There is plenty of mud plugging on there and quite rightly so, but references to mud plugging on lanes isnt allowed.

.. and according to you they have to delete a lot of such references.

I'm a member of the site, I joined months ago to try and sell my landy. One of the admin staff lives near me and is making noises about coming to look the Pinz over so perhaps I'll quiz him on the matter.

Ian Rawlings uttered summat worrerz funny about:

I have to agree with Darren , the Mud-club actively discourages the kind of activities and posts that you suggest. I regularly visit Mud-club as it's nice to see what the other marques get up to. Green lane trips I've been on with members are very firmly adhereing to the mud-club code of conduct which pretty much echos GLASS and CRAG codes of conduct for laning.

What I do see alot of on Mud-club is imagery of Off road activities as in not lanes.

One swallow doesn't make a summer and thats how I read your initial comments what ever the intention.

Well, I'll cross my fingers, but if it's called mud club, the members profess to loving mud, and the admin staff have to keep deleting references to mud plugging on green lanes then it'll take a bit of convincing!

Username is tarcus and avatar is the pinz zipping up a hill of chalk, if you see me gadding about then say haloo.

they don't have to be playing in the mud on lanes though...

I didnt quite mean it like that. You implied its a haven for people of that type. Its the web and a lot busier than somewhere like a.f.l. Of course there are going to be people who want to play in the mud (in the wrong places). There is also 'legitimate' bits of mud on lanes, and even photographic evidence of that isnt allowed, just in case. Ive only been laning properly once (with Lee and Tim) and we found a badly muddy bit where I got stuck (it was a tractor track across a field and we were trying to keep to the ruts which ended up to be too deep)
