Green Laning Around Thetford Forest and ReviewI'm gauging interest in some green laning around thetford forest sometime soon. I have never done them, nor have I even seen them, so I dont really know much about them. I have selected some lanes that look to be good, and when I made it they were all clear of TROs, but will check again nearer the date.
I think I have around 3 or 4 hours worth of lanes planned out (avg speed of 5mph)....but if anyone can send me a MM overlay of some good lanes around there then even better! Anyone interested in a day out? Would be great if a hardened lane'r or 2 could attend (bobbinsjob) to show us (me) how its done, and pull me out if I get stuck lol. On the other hand, a group of newbies and some rope could be a good laugh lol. No dates in mind yet, as I say just gauging interest.

If you want a lift your welcome Fudge. Looking forward to it. Oh either day is fine but Saturday would be preferable in case emergency repairs needed Sunday to use her to get to work Monday !!
