Thats Llangollen added to my list of places to terrorise next year :thumright:

Give me about 2 months (at least because i'm useless) to get my brothers old DT125 ready for greenlaning and then give us a shout if you fancy going again. I ride badly, but I'm an expert crasher :)

Your halfway between me and Phil so we often meet around your area (Long Itch Cafe) to go laning. There's a few lanes south of Daventry that Phil has never tried yet. We'll give you a shout if we are going over that way.

I am a little confused. They were 'legal' lanes but you are not 'cough* legally * cough' riding the quad?

Dont you need to be fully insured etc to ride on 'legal' lanes?

Yes. Byways, unclassified roads, whatever you call them, have the same legal requirement.
Riding on private land with landowners permission is ok, but even that has an enforceable duty of care against the landowner.

yes hence why i stuck to the muddy stuf where there were no other people and got picked up at each end, the quad is registered and insured but not for me. with the amount of non road legal crossers up there i was one in a million and never went on the proper main roads.
