@Robbie,

Yeah, just after I watched the vid I looked up a bunch of other Wiltshire/Dorset byways with water crossings online. A couple of good ones were closed and potentially to have CCTV installed due to "irresponsible 4x4 owners using it as a play area" :cry:

It appears that is why a lot of the river crossings on the Fosse Way are now gated off :cry:

It's just that one section that has been closed thanks to all the twats wrecking the place, thing is it wasn't actually a river crossing as there's a bridge! people just used to play in the river, the two 'actual fords' are still open on the fosseway.

Ahh I see. Well that's good they're still open.

Anyway, back on topic, it sounds like people are perhaps leaning towards the plains and surrounding areas then.

Scottie, you mentioned you wouldn't mind finding some new place you haven't been. Got any ideas?

I'm going to try and find the location of hells lane if any one fancies a go at that there is a couple of YouTube vids of that! Quite extreme!
Just checked the map, as I have remembered there is another lane that goes up to hell. If I make it to this trip I will bring the map up and show you where it is

I must agree with the hells lane video they are pretty irresponsible hence why I choice to lane with you guys now! Glad to hear about fosse way I would love a go at that! Is there an action group for more reasonable and responsible use of lanes?
