Green because on Ordanance Survey Maps they use a green dotted line to signify that they are Roads.

funny that... cos on my OS maps, the byway, or green lane looks like this

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-

[General Baxter]

Owned Lol

[mowgli]

they are green lanes because of the lack of tarmac

[MattBrown]

4x4's are for old people who cant ride motorbikes!

Motorbiking down the lanes is FTMFW

That would be a permissive access/bridleway....


A green lane is called a byway open to all traffic on an OS map and looks like this ++++++++++

I'm a little older than you and back in my Youth (Hosteling days) they were green. IIRC the description was "ROAD used as a public footpath"

[AlexW]

I'm a little older than you

Jesus you must be old, Older than mowgli?!! lol

I thought green laning was homosexual parlance for taking it up the rear in the countryside (in an environmentally friendly manner):confused:

No wonder you have so many points/convictions etc. lol

4x4'ing FTW.

[andy_017]

I wouldn't mind having a go at green laning,in a 4x4 or on a
motorbike I think they would both be fun!

[L14MNP]

The difference is when you play in a 4x4 it is slow, controlled etc. I could imagine most 'crossers' just flying about and being t!ts. lol

I'm not saying bikes can't be fun though!

[andy_017]

That's generally what motocross riders do,however green laning motorbike riders tend to be far more sensible and are concerned about people riding where they don't have permission etc and giving all off road bike riders a bad name,they do seem to do a good job of this though!

well lol
