Hello Rick, we're in Luton Bedfordshire, but unfortunately the lanes down here are poor. We went to Hitchin last night, theres a real nice Byway that runs off the A505 - nasty turn onto the corner of the dual carriage way, we got a little way down and we found trash dumped everywhere, it was stupid like thick glass, no way we wanted to risk it, poor Gibbo had to mess around reversing trying to do a 3point turn (which turned into more like 20 point) Just to avoid reversing onto the corner of the Dual Carriage way, I was not amused and neither was Gibbo (it was all my fault lol) But I mean its irritating, people have got no brains! We need proper lanes :D Lol..

If anyones near, or can think of somewhere thats not too far, then please let us know, :D

And also if anyone knows of any in Bedfordshire that you think we may not know, please do Share :D lol. We recently found one or two in Ashridge.

I just want to moan a little more about the rubbish, is there anything that can be done about it, I mean someone has to clear it, who would we contact? :)

Thanks!
