Yorkshire Lanes. Advice please.

How do all. Been checking out an os map OL30 covering the Yorkshire Dales (north). There's two large BOATs, Cam High road and a Y shaped one called Busk lane, Gilbert lane and High lane.
Just after a bit of advice. I'm pretty new to the green laning thingy. Are these routes suitable for a novice? I don't have a winch but the landy has mud tyres and guards etc.
They're a decent drive away so want to check out peoples knowledge of them before I venture off into the wilds by myself.

Grid ref' for Cam High road is 9255 x 8950 at the most northern point to 8630 x 8535.

The other lane grid ref' 9190 x 8610 at the north west point, 9430 x 8715 at the north east point and 9430 x 8040.

Any directions to tackle them from or parts to avoid.

Cheers.

DONT go by yourself, and if you dont know the lanes walk them first to see if it is ok to drive

I don't want to drive over there if they're not suitable. It'll be a two hour drive just to get there. Hoping to recruit some others to go too.

Easy lanes. Did them last November with Mad Hippos Club

Cheers Longdog. That's all I needed to know. Looks nice. Now to get a group together to go up there.
Any one interested?

yep there 2 or 3 of us that will do em from bradford :welcome2:

hi every body in looking to start green laning but i dont have a clue! when would you be going. and what would i need to bring apart from my landy

I'm up for arranging something. I do however work shifts so not always free at weekends. Any ideas when King Karl?
NTC, I haven't been and done it propery before but I'm sure if a few of us band together we'll have most of the stuff between us. There is another feed on here about what to bring along.
Pm me and we'll see what we can get arranged.

i would be interested in coming too- not done any greenlaning yet!

Stick me down for it, depends on dates. I'm already up for the a Long Mynd/Shropshire outing, so after that .. but dunno when that one is yet either!.

If someone's aranging it, stick a date or a weekend up and everyone either falls in with that or we all re-arrange to suit ...

i'd be up for coming along.

toby

I'd arrange a date but my timing belt has just broke so I'm F***ed at the moment.

any damage done or just the hassle of changing it?

I'll be doing these lanes solo, late August but I'd like to do them earlier with a group to make it more fun. So if you are still up for it you can count me in too.

Count me in too, im from Rotherham.

Don't know what the damage is yet if any. Once it's sorted sounds like there's a few people willing to meet up. I'll try to arrange something.

went up there in may,....you'll have a cracking time bud

I'd love to come along but it depends on when - anytime after mid September would be great!

This is why it needs to be so far away!



Old TD is dead and I'm half way (yeah right!) through a 200TDi transplant...

I'm away all next week on a banger rally - check out Rally Team SAS - Home2Rome StreetSafari Banger Rally 2009 - Rally Team SAS - Home2Rome StreetSafari Banger Rally 2009

And then away another week getting married... and then another 2 weeks on honeymoon!!! :doh:

Be good to try out the new engine in September though

She's alive! New belt and works like a dream. Well, for a landy.

I'd be up for this, by coincidence was just looking at those lanes on Trailwise. Also came across these piccies

If we make it one weekend, would prob come over and stay in the tin tent.
