Weldone doublespeed. You're like me. Just going up and down the beach ain't enough. We need to explore.
Even if that means negotiating rocks and other hazards and getting wet.

I too found new-found-land at my local beach on Sunday. A 7 mile strip of beach owned by the M.O.D. ( ministry of defence ) used as a live firing range most days and laying beyond the outlet pipe is usually and strictly out of bounds to Joe public when the red flags are flying.

Stray onto their land at any other time and you'll be chased off by speed boats or army personnel in Jeeps. But on Sunday the flags were down and the tide was out so my friend and I gunned it passing numerous security cameras dotted along the empty beach and riding up to 50 mph on large pebbles and sea defences on a inclined bank for many miles until we made our way to with in a mile of the nuclear power station at Dungeness before heading inland.

To my knowledge this place has never been buggied before. We were rewarded with huge expanses of undulating hard packed stone, steep shingle banks, burnt out tanks with exit wounds the size of footballs, hidden bunkers, washed up sea containers. The perfect off beach buggy adventure. Just awesome! The only thing missing were the babes in bikinis carrying AK47's. :lol:
