Lincomb October 10-12th

[Jon Wildsmith]

Still quite wet in places in the woods, I had to rescue a 110 that had got stuck the weekend before last

Hi, as I'm new to the forums, what's the deal with the 'Lincomb' event? What happens? (Still haven't got a pass to escape for the weekend as still planning October at the moment but might try and make it)

Its just social with sometimes a bit of off roading, punch competition thrown in, you know BBQ / hog roast tonnes of beer, late night round a bonfire talking bo%$()ks and retire late to a tent. Great camaraderie between like minded guys from all sorts of backgrounds.
I'm not sure you'd like it
I'm down that weekend if you want to run down together from't Yorkshire.

a bit of off roading Andy

it's a chance to test your trucks full ability or if you prefer to do some mild off roading with no pressure and no fear of damage . It's good nobody is egging you one to do anything you don't want to . It's pretty much a free roam environment with no fear of getting stuck as the next guy to come along will pull you out and then back to the camp field for beer and grub around the bonfire , i've only been once and everyone was a stranger to me but i thoroughly enjoyed it and so did the mrs much to my astonishment

Things are a bit up in the air at the mo Chas my trucks in the Isle of Man and i'm grounded until the daughter in law has her baby (due 2 days ago) , Helen's been asked to take holidays from work or lose them ... again! so i'm basically keeping stum until i find out if she wants us to go abroad or something its only fair she works hard and i've been away a lot . For me its gonna be a last minute hey they are having a meet at Lincomb this weekend love how about it

I'll see you there then, I'll either be wandering round or on the Overland Cruisers stand.

Would it be ok to just come down for the day and do a bit of offroading and meeting people? Got other family engagements on so can't make the whole weekend :-(

 

[SpinDrift]

Yes, that's fine. Not everyone will be there for the whole weekend.

 

[mussy]

Looks like I am in as well....

 

[mussy]

Just some noobie , questions... How many will be attending? I suppose I need to bring a tent.., what else to expect? I will be traveling from Geneva to pick up a trailer in Durham on Friday and them arrive Friday night...

All help advice appreciated!

 

[Shayne]

There's toilets and a shower shower on site though you may find a queue in the mornings , there's town not far away with a pub and supermarket so you could just arrive with no forward planning and sleep in your truck . Just bring youself some beer and the rest will sort itself out

 

[Shayne]

Going to collect my 90 on Saturday guys so hope to make Lincomb .

 

[mussy]

So by my counting it looks around 12+ committed to attending... Our trip is coming together. We set off from Geneva Thursday to pick up a trailer in Durham and hope to arrive Friday night... Is that too early?

 

[SpinDrift]

Quite a few of us will be there from Friday night - some will probably even be there from the afternoon

 

[Chas]

I'll be there Friday, early evening sometime.

[Chris]

I might not make Friday night. If I do it'll be late. Got to leave Sunday at Lunchtime too. Bah.

 

[mussy]

We'll have to leave at a similar time too....

 

[Chas]

Early departure Sunday for me too, I'm flying to Malta early Monday morning.
