Devon & Cornwall green laning thread

[Muds]

Looks like a nice trip, I like that area, nice and uncrowded, and the locals don't seem hostile to laning!

The locals are definitely not hostile ...unless there's only one remaining cream tea .... Then there'll be a fight on ..

 

[Muds]

Thank you Muds.I believed you were behind me somewhere :crazy_driver:

It was so overgrown in places , we could've easily been there on our own
Some of those lanes haven't seen hide nor hair of ramblers or horse riders .....I feel we are doing the community a service in keeping them from growing over altogether lol

That's what I thought too when we were up there in the autumn.

More imminent danger of some of them being overgrown than tros etc. Not complaining though, what is bodywork for anyways!

Well that looked a lot more controlled from inside, than it did from the outside

Looked very slippery sometimes wet rock is worse than mud.

I know ...pity I didn't get out and walk up with Sue ...make sure I do next time ...it'll be worth it just to see Kevin and Andy hanging off the rock sliders like a couple of Longleat monkeys

Got a Coast to Coast (Cornwall and local ) route planned and mapped ...based on a LRO route with some bits we've added ...if you're up for helping us do a recce (not all at once cos it's pretty long) we'd be grateful.

No worries, just pm some refs and I will check it out.

I've looked up all the grid refs from the beginning and end of each lane , and with 18 in total I shall sort out some nearest you , if you wouldn't mind a little lookiie ....some are out towards the Roseland , I think I'll have to walk these first as it'll entail a trip over on the KHF which costs , but if you would like to come (I'd prefer some back up just in case I get stuck )I'd be happy to shout you the crossing fee otherwise there are some midway which I'll PM you the refs for ...or on paper over a pint if you and the others fancy a meet up?

Pub meet would be good, look at the maps and sort out some to look at.

Anyone else fancy that?

Maybe week after next, we are away over the weekend back midweek. Could try somewhere more handy for jem90 and his wife if they are up for it. Maybe Chiverton arms or even up Aggie, if that's not to much of a mish for you two ?

Having consulted with the boss, we think that most days that week would be fine, perhaps Wednesday? Give it a day or two to see if Martyn and Jem have a preference

Heard a rumour he has sold his series! I was pretty surprised to hear that, doubt if he will get another at that money!

We are off in the morning, will check in as I can while we are away. Back midweek, hopefully Martyn and Jem will break surface by then
