Greenlaning pics in cumbria

[jim-cr 250]

Here's just a few pics from the weekend. First time ive really done it and i didnt realise how many routes and trails there actually are around here, and how bloody unbelivable some are, il have to stop and get some pics of the actual trails next time. been on snow, ice, gravel, mud, stone and though a very deep river(not the little puddle in the pic)
If anyone on here is ever up for coming out and seeing what i mean just give me a shout.

Do you get into many arguments when your out on the lanes? I quite fancy doing a bit of trailriding. I always buy TBM but I haven't got the patience to put up with idiot ramblers causing trouble.

[----]

Had no problems at all with ramblers so far,but have had a couple of hairy moments from farmers/land owners when i've accidently veered onto their land

The rambler thing seems to be a bigger issue down south as far as i'm aware.

Don't know exactly where the legal ones are,but pretty much any lane in that area is good to ride.
It's not like you're going to run into anyone
There's a couple of abandoned quarry's round there aswell as miles of unused countryside lanes.
If i can get my mate to come out he knows all the legal ones,or i can get him to mark up my maps with them.

I thought you needed a road registered bike to do greenlaning?

[Sparks!]

[TUG]

Only need a reg as far as i know with a daylight m.o.t

You need a fully road legal bike, just like you would to ride on normal roads.

There is also no such thing as a daylight m.o.t.

[jim-cr 250]

yep, You need a fully road legal bike, everything you would need for the road. MY bike has no lights at all, but i still have the usual mot certificate, so yes as Matt said, no such thing as a daylight mot.

[TUG]

I'm confused, I always was under the impression lights were needed for a vehicle on the road?
