Could,nt be doin wi all adverts pal + we did proper off road stuff 30 years ago just to earn a livin. Not impressed at all. Maybe good video for office IT guys to get into it but very, very mild. Have another man beer and be a man. Cheers

When you wrote this did you think I care what you think hahahaha. You carry on looking at your black and white pics and remembering the good old days. Have fun clicking on vids so you can whine like a little girl in the comments for a little bit of attention and try and feel important.

[@equaliser2265]

Used this Ambulance in the Army , with x4 casualties they would easily role sideways on the tracks as very top heavy. We would have to get out and push it vertical again , luckily the steep sides of the tracks aided in lifting of the Ambulance,

As terrible as it is shit happens. No one goes out with the intentions of having a knock. It’s just an accident. Probably don’t make you feel any better now, but months down the road you’ll both be sitting around the fire laughing about it. 👍 stay safe.

Tell ya what. The scenery of strata never gets old. The original Vid of when you did strata with brummieprepper and many others is when I first discovered your channel and have been watching for years. The evolution of Edna is a journey in itself. Awesome as always

[@martincherry6921]

Perfect camp spot. Booked in. Strata Florida is my favourite lane by far. That and Lower Claerwen nearby. Shame about the whack. Gutted for you

[@avit24]

Basically stay ON the track or STICK to the route. Lanes get closed because of people not keeping on the track.. a few who don't close the track down for the ones that do keep on the route!

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Lanes are also closed because ppl drive through already damaged sections contributing to the damage even more when there is a solid section to the side that would cause no damage. Like I say common sense isn’t for everyone.

[@Simonandisla]

Fab lane 👍👌

[@carlsadventures2361]

Great video and a great intro to green laning i hope you get the Landy and stew gets his D2 fixed soon

Stews is sorted now. I’m just waiting to get an answer from the insurance to what they can do.

I’ve got the Fiskars saw, not had a problem but I’ve only used it for small stuff. Got the same one for my sister and she broke it first time! I’ve got a Silky PocketBoy now and that’s much less brittle.

The big silky looks amazing

Sorry to hear about the accident, it will be a shame if you have to replace the original box, its such a unique vehicle. Anyway I hope the repairs go well and hopefully its not as bad as you initially thought?

Thanks bro

[@markparish9072]

Good Vlog. Was around Shropshire and Wales the previous week on me own Touring hence kept it to the tarmac and wild campsites. Scenery was gorgeous and midges were ravenous especially Bontddu on the sunday evening 9.30 10.30. Should have retired to the tent earlier. might have to look into that earlier campsite though. Tan Aeldroch also good for a base Betws y Coed way but did start to fill up towards the weekend. not been over the wayfarer for a while, cant remember if I have done Strata florida in the past or not. you caught some gorgeous scenes though and it didnt seem to busy on the lanes. glad to see only superficial damage, well ,I still have the last couple of minutes to watch.

[@leeburwood3073]

It’s a shame it ended like that, gutting I know but at least no one was hurt. It looked an amazing few days

[@michaelcaton9358]

Did the Strata Florida a couple of three years back on my motorbike (Yam T7) after a good dump of rain. Was challenging to say the least. Wet feet does nor really describe it. Wet to my Waist the water was so deep. Bloody good fun, not east on a big trail bike.... Hard to choose a line when you can't see the bottom. Pleased not to be camping that night. Good to see the lane in this video. I competed all the legal trails in Wales now and a few that are not.

[@sjb7339]

What a trip happy you have shared tis always a pisser when accidents happen whether minor or serious things can always be replaced glad nobody has been hurt done Strata Florida a few years ago in a Landcruiser 100 with an offroad trailer done the bomb hole with it it looks like someone has filled the thing in a bit or could be natural filled keep safe Rich and Stu keep putting up the video looking forwards to the next one

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

It’s hard to say. The camper is that long it’s over the obstacle before the second set of wheels even get to it. We watched a 110 scrape down.

[@markparish9072]

oops right so I hadnt seen that bit. evidently everyone fit & well.

[@jamesjohnson5925]

Do you know what size wheels your matey has on his disco? The actual wheels them selves?

[@rolly6936]

To be fair I recon the box can be fixed and a new box crossmember on. Then re fit the inside.

My tribe love Nash Oakland....it's only just up the road from Hereford and an awesome place to get back to nature and do some bushcrafting.

[@glennj6465]

Got the Gerber Version Never had an issue but I tend to pull harder than push 😳😂🥴

[@petermiddo]

Rich, you might like to look out for a box from the ex-Australian Army LR Perenties, particularly a General Maintenance box. I realise that the shipping would.d be horrendous, but, in the end, it would make a sensational base to make a camper out of. I've looked at them myself as a base for something similar to your EDNA. They're also heavy, they come on the 6x6 110 variant.... Worth doing some homework on.

[@lindsaybrown7357]

Yes, was thinking the same. They look like they are double wall fibreglas so would be easy to keep cool or warm. All selling for more than I'd like to pay though 😔

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

They are too big mate. I recon I can jig this box

[@petermiddo]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk nice one. I thought they might be, they go on the 6x6 110s, anyway, to support the extra weight. I thought I'd mention it anyway. (I want a perentie more than nearly anything in the world but probably only a 4x4.)

[@pauls466]

milk for sure.

[@swisstony662]

Great vid u sounded like Goldilocks and 3 bears it's not to hot 🔥 not to cold in woods lol

[@ianwallett7438]

When shit happens I always think it's happened for a reason....it's prevented something worse happening in the future. Like if you go to your truck in the morning and the tyre is flat, it might have prevented you being in an accident changing your driving time. It's my positive thought process to overcome being pissed off. 👍

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

That is exactly how I’m looking at it too.

[@andypalmer26]

Great video , can you tell me where you camped as can't really hear on video , looks good for me & mate to do a bit of that cheers

What crash ? . I saw your video at Billings ,saw how gutsy you were hauling your Bus around the Billings Site ,Watched your Video where you mention about a Prang , ? Are you Guys Safe ?

[@stupidmonkeykev]

You'll snap a pull-saw if you try and push it. You just need to learn how to use it. I prefer a Silky myself, but use cheaper ones until you can use a pull saw properly.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Hahahaha condescending much

[@stupidmonkeykev]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk sorry, was trying to say it wasn't a issue with the blade. Pull saws are awesome, use them a lot (building and maintaining MTB tracks). Feel free to go give me some abuse on my @off grid and working hard channel ;)
