We don't want a pub or anything, we would bring in the beer ourselves, maybe a keg or 8.
When we say about the greenlaning i would love to get a real full day out of it. Stop somewhere half way, maybe a pub meal?
Location we arnt fully sure yet. Ideally midlands, but wales will be more garunteed green laning.
Max . It's the bonfire that's the important bit though ... is there any way around that one in this litigious age? Hopefully there will be. We need to sort out a suitable route - of which we have a few possibilites. When we're happy with that, then the search will be on for a field & a suitably open minded farmer within a reasonable distance!

 Re: anyone up for a spot of Dustbineering...
A big old fire would be sweet, and I'm fairly sure it's possible to do nowadays, health and safety isn't the complete fun-stopper we tend to think it is.

Well, I don't have a great deal of spare time, but I'm happy to go and check out any potential sites if they're not too far from Ross on Wye. I can check out any green lanes too, but bear in mind my only vehicle at the moment is a Daihatsu Fourtrak, which may give a misleading impression as to how easy a lane is in 2CV terms.

 Re: anyone up for a spot of Dustbineering...
We currently have 3 possible routes. All ranging differently. Some very long 50/50 roads/ green lanes and some short 70/30 green lanes / roads.
I thnk the site will be the hardest bit.

 Re: anyone up for a spot of Dustbineering...
Whereabouts are the routes? If they're in Gloucestershire or the Cotswolds I might be able to try and find a good site.

That's the trouble - there doesn't seem to be *that* much around that area. The possibilities we have are more easterly - Bear in mind we've only just started searching for possible routes, so given a a bit more time we may turn something up around that area. As we all know, finding a decent site to host a back to basics camp is half the battle!

Definitely up for this!  Had been considering doing something similar round here, but if someone else does it, even better! Give us a shout if you need a hand with owt...
