Cool
Took Java out for its first real off road challenge today...

I'm hoping to get my dashcam footage up. Was rather impressed. Very wet, very muddy (I got carried away) just saw a sign for public byway and thought..meh why not?.....


Couple of stills, but doesn't show the terrain it turned into:

Angry
No dashcam footage :-( it's rolled over on the memory card where I've used it since and left ignition on to do the map update..oh well...shame though

On a plus, I've found this site http://www.bywaymap.com which as the name suggests, shows all the public byways where vehicles are allowed...if you fancy it..
