rule number 1 .......Don't go alone .....

it's best to start on a play site where you can get to grips with how your truck feels and handles in an open and controlled maner

Theres plenty of nice green lanes between you and Buxton, what you need is an OS map and look
for +-+-+-+- It means Byway open to all traffic, but even when they are marked they are sometimes closed or not passable.
I'm sure some of the guys here have the grid references for ones that are still drivable.
