WALES' TOUGHEST GREEN LANES! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 RED LANE, BASTARD, STRATA FLORIDA & MORE

[@adamblake3252]

Red Lane, there is nothing more challenging on a snowy March evening😂🥶

[@edwardmeakes1284]

Nice video. That's Nant y Arian the lane up to the kite feeding and bike trails. The lane at 19:43 do you have the TWUID? I think I know which one it may be but want to check. Cheers

[@lukegibbins2271]

Thank you! Ah cheers always wondered what that lane was actually called thank you. Don’t have the TWUID as my membership has just ran out but these are the coordinates, 52.491803, -3.924093, let me know if that’s the right one, cheers

[@edwardmeakes1284]

​@@lukegibbins2271thanks a lot. Yeah that's the right one. How was it? Read some comments on TW2 saying how bad it was? But didn't look awful in your video.

[@lukegibbins2271]

@@edwardmeakes1284no it’s not too bad but we were coming down it. We’ve driven it a few times coming up there’s a few challenging but you can always put some rocks down to help get up!

[@edwardmeakes1284]

​@@lukegibbins2271thanks for your response. Happy laning!

[@markditchfield1499]

@@edwardmeakes1284 what is the Tw2 ID?

[@Bobbystar50]

The problem with red lane is that clearly huge discos with 5 inch lifts and 34 inch tyres with front and rear diff lock, have dug the ruts out so deep that no, standard 4x4 can do it as easily anymore.

[@lukegibbins2271]

Yeah some sections there’s no point even doing, as they are so deep! Definitely need a good winch if you are attempting it, makes it good fun tho haha!

[@charliebowmen2632]

Hi luke done most of them, great bunch of lanes not to sure on your hill lanes if I've done them, fo you have a TW2 track code for them? Was the 110 on standed suspension? Help resolve a argument I'm having with a friend 😂 As always great video

[@lukegibbins2271]

Hi mate they are good! Yes the 110 was on standard suspension, he has now changed to a 2 inch lift which you will see in the next video! Uphill bumper lane , 52.491803, -3.924093 These are the coordinates for the uphill lane, let me know if you need anymore! Cheers mate 👍

Hello mate. Currenly living in bromley area (kent) and want to take a weekend trip down to wales to do some proper offroading with my range rover l322 petrol. How do you find these locations and are they open to the public? Can i just drive down and start doing some off roading? Watch your videos all the time! You're reply would be much appreciated!! Thank you

[@lukegibbins2271]

Hi mate ah nice! We use TrailWise2 to find all the green lanes and to see if they have any restrictions on them, very useful! You have to pay a yearly subscription but I think it’s like £40 a year so not too bad. But if you have any lanes in mind that you’re thinking of doing I’ve got the main ones saved on google maps just for ease. 👍

[@edizkemal5827]

Amazing thanl you. Will definitely subscribe to that! Could you send me some of your locations which you have tested and done? Would you be able to send on here or would you like my number to send on WhatsApp?

@@edizkemal5827 yeah sure Strata Florida, 52.265510, -3.825380 Bike Park, 52.432400, -3.864830 Lower Claerwen, 52.255400, -3.655200 Spicy lane , 51.913537, -3.776342 Bomber Lane, 52.682000, -4.019000 There’s a few but if you do get Trailwise there’s loads out there! And you can see comments on the lanes and sometimes photos of it so you know what they look like, but those lanes that I’ve sent you should be okay on if you’re going by yourself 👍

[@edizkemal5827]

Thanks a lot. Lastly, them numbers are they to copy and paste in Google maps cos u can't seem to find the exact locations?

[@lukegibbins2271]

@@edizkemal5827 yeah they’re just coordinates referring to the start point of the lanes

As a new owner to a disco 3 (I know not a favourite choice but I didn’t really have a choice 😂) I have a completely stock disco and would like to attempt some of these lanes in the new year. Can anyone offer advice on what mods would be best. It’s a TDV6 HSE stock 19s no mods. I haven’t been to these lanes for about 10-15 years and would like to make the most of owning a landy again

[@lukegibbins2271]

Some tyres will go a long way definitely! Go out with other people as well just in case you get stuck. As you go down the lanes you will find out what your truck needs when it gets stuck or finds a section hard 👍

[@adamblake3252]

It looks like you drove around all the difficult bits.

[@lukegibbins2271]

I think only a tank would be able to do some of those bits! Would like to see someone try but they are a lot deeper than they look so we thought we better not risk it haha

[@connorhynes5528]

​@@lukegibbins2271 I did the tough bits on red lane in my D1 yesterday after all this weather we've just had, water nearly upto the windows inside had to winch all the way through 🤣

[@lukegibbins2271]

@@connorhynes5528 I’m not surprised! 😂 fair play for going through it. We may be doing a trip in January so we’ll see how it is then!

[@jadelovessam]

Good video footage got a few of us with quads where best place to start and end any help be appreciated

[@lukegibbins2271]

@@jadelovessam cheers mate what lanes are you doing? Usually if you go north to south that’s a good direction with most of them

[@jadelovessam]

Not sure yet has coming from Oxford so let me no where best to start and finish is the a loop to get back to start? Or book bed breakfast and 2nd day work back? Thanks

[@lukegibbins2271]

Ah nice, yeah could start north/mid wales and do bastard lane and strata Florida, then head down and do a few more, red lane is a bit more south so you could end with that. Or you can do it in the opposite order, we sometimes prefer driving furthest then working our way back closer to home so the drive back isn’t as far👍

[@mikeb53]

I wouldn't advise red lane to anybody using a VNT turbo... you get your intercooler and radiator clogged with mud, you're gonna be sorry.

[@lukegibbins2271]

Yeah it’s extremely muddy! Especially in winter time as well

We will have to give that a go next time sounds exciting!😂
