I am torn with the rights and wrongs on this...
With one hand I believe that they are right in what they are doing and the original idea was a good one and the 'Ramblers Association' by launching the Forbidden Britain campaign, with the aim of securing a statutory right of access to open countryside 1985 should also be plauded.
However.....
One can not really say that the Ramblers Association are fully supporting the idea of a statutory right of access to open countryside with their (and others mind) continual onslaught on the rights of the 4x4 community to also access certain (the ban would be all routes if they had their way) long established rights of way. One reason I really do not like horses and their riders on the road (note, as much as I think they shoud keep the walking BBQ's on the bridleways they seem to want to have the exclusive rights too, I always pullover and switch off for them to pass or if I'm overtaking only pass when the rider indicates they are happy and/or the road is obviously clear ahead and the horse is not hopping about!).
I have an inclination to hope that the err more vocal and therefore objectional ramblers might happen to get slightly lost and wander across the SPTA just as the Household div and the RTR are out having a mass chally excercise.... It would be excellent sport chasing the tree huggers across the tank training area with a chally
But that's me and not the wishes of everyone.....
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been
Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered
)
