I was talking to the Rangers this afternoon and they told me about this, (the clown tried to drive down Weacombe). 🙄
They had to get a 4WD tractor to rescue him.

Total knob, I take it thats blocked the stream & borked the trail for everyone 🙄
i got pictures! lmfao
Mmmmm isnt that where Andy Bev crashed(s****).
how badly trashed is the combe after they pulled him out?
Tim Russell said the bloke turned a bit white when told if the tractor couldn't get him out the only other option was a Chinook 😆
At least Andy managed to get a bit further down the combe 😉
Alot of people this winter all over the country seem to have gone brain dead are 4x4s not banned on the Quantocks?See the idiots driving on a canal in Scotland they got along way DOWN.
They should have left the bastard there. 👿

And built a bit of north shore over the top...
Did he remove his number plates?
no pics here any chance of a email copy
Ah got it
All I needed was Knottie to get me out 😕

Yea about 12ft below the track 🙄
Never liked Weacombe anyway.
( 😉 )
😯
reminds me of that Fast Show sketch "Lets Offroad!"...but not as amusing tho'
Can't we wage war on these Muppets ???
How about a "Pied Piper Of Hamlin" style operation... lead them down into some deep, dark combe.. and then string the bast8rds up !!
Sure "Sharkie" would be up for a bit of that sort of action.. 😈
Oh well that and the tracker will have borked arguably the best trail in them hills.
£30 fine coming up - pathetic
So what happens next ?
Does the "asshole" have to cough up for being rescued, and does prosecution follow ??

maybe call for something other than a Chinook helicopter to 'help' then?...not sure that it be too trail friendly tho'.
more seriously from a Public Rights of Way perspective, the vehicle is clearly way 'off piste' (to put it politely) it would be interesting to know what the consequences are...BlackDown over on Mendip has been taking a real hammering from 'illegitimate' 4x4 useage too
"Blackdown" They got a £30 fine - blow me!
£30 quid that is ridiculous
It's like a parking fine. It's barely a disincentive.
Looks like you boys need to learn how to drive offroad.
Spotted out on todays ride.

Outstanding, Tangent, outstanding... Get you a case of beer for that one. 😈
I believe i saw that 4x4 in a shop CP in Bilgewater..still coated in mud... and i wonder if it's the same i hoofed off the hills a couple weeks back before it snowed...
Almost certainly.
Would a good ground anchor & winch not pull it out then? If not, i assume just coz it's got nice big holes where's he's sunk?
The latest tard of the hills!
