Club sites do not specify the type of hardstanding on the web,so you need to phone the site direct,we got caught out this way last year at Boroughbridge.

 

 

 

Boroughbridge & trying to put pegs into concrete, laughable.

 

This year on different size stones,gravel etc we used what was advised  by someone else;

What  we did  when the ground was harder or bigger stones was to use an old hard metal peg that has no plastic top anymore hammered down into the ground and wiggled out again before you put the more decent pegs into the hole does help having no more broken ones. Using an ordinary hammer of course or you will ruin your mallet rubber or wood.

The delta pegs from Rob Ore one of our brother members was to show its worth both plastic ones & metal as we have 4 of each. They never came out of the ground till we pulled them out whilst other people kept going round daily to bang theirs back in we checked and did nothing.,The long handled metal peg puller I used in my wheelie and was able to do my bit to help.

One problem with hardstandings though is that you tend to be surrounded by deaf,tv watching,hobnail boot wearing caravanners,who think that as they can't hear you,you can't hear them.
