Off-road Driving

Land Rovers?  Made for difficult terrain - mostly never driven anywhere but tarmac.  They are immensely capable vehicles.  The network of green-lanes in this country provides opportunities to access parts of the countryside not otherwise accessible (by me).  Unfortunately, they also provide access to a small, but significant, number of morons who are hell-bent on causing damage.

The Green Land ASSociation (GLASS) has a defined set of rules for enjoying green-lanes.  These essentially boil-down to: be safe; be considerate.

I always go out on organised trips: it’s not unknown for us to finish the day having brought back barbecues, folding chairs and (once) a gazebo left behind by other users.  More often than not, we have to move - and then report - fly-tipping to get through. 

Many of the videos below are on Salisbury Plain - although some idiots with very agressive tyres and/or deliberately poor driving do manage it, generally speaking it is more difficult to ‘damage’ with a car an area driven through by tanks and lorries.
