I did have a look at my street map, and that shows the North Downs way, between two parts of the Pilgrims way, not sure if that is what you mean, I would think there must be a few routes down that way, Charing, Challock etc....

Yeah i know of the ones at Charirung and i,ve done the challock one...Thats Kicking, you,ll enjoy that one...It starts at Chillham castle and goes right up over the North Downs..Awesomly "Snotty"

Greenlaning is ON for the 28th..(Thursday)..That ok with you ?? Got My mate Dave who knows the routes like the back of his hand and another friend of mine who,s got a bog standard Cherokee...You,ll be well looked after mate...There not really hard lanes...But they are a bit "Snotty" and you will get a few scratches from the trees but nothin that wont polish out..You will get your Landie seriously muddy i promise...
We are all meeting up at about 10.45 am but if you can get to me in Herne Bay by 9.30am we can do some mild ones here for half hour..

Should be great with me, BUT may have to meet at 10;45 as son on a sleepover, so need to collect him (Hes 11) and wants to come.

Scratches that polish out!!! My landy was painted with masonry paint, not by me, so scratches I aint bothered about...

Anything I need to bring? Will bring a big flask of coffee.....

Hi,

Where are the mild green lanes you mentioned around Herne Bay? I only live in Beltinge so it would be great to take my Landy there!

Thanks,

Daniel

The guy who knows the lanes is no longer a member here (Long story)....

Will e-mail him, are looking at going again soon, so you could come along if you want....

Yep, that would be good thanks!

Greetings - have just got my S11 on the road and now looking for some gentle green lane fun. Live in Maidstone so watching the thread with interest. Keep me informed as the saying goes...

Ian
