Greenlaners have got to be the most selfish little boys ever to bugger up the countryside for ordinary people i.e. ramblers, cyclists and families out for a stroll.Do everyone a favour and find some other way to get your little man macho jollies.And as for walking to work-whoopy doo.
Ramblers and cyclist have many many more routes than green laners. The routes that are used are designated as BOATs - Byway open to all traffic. The likes of cyclists (who are sometimes worse than car drivers but that's a whole other thread!) and ramblers have the choice of footpaths and bridleways along with the BOATs. There was a time when people were moaning because horse riders were using bridleways (the clue is in the name BRIDLEways).
Some of the lanes that are used would benefit from some extra use, otherwise they will become overgrown and lost to horse riders and walkers alike.
As for "ordinary people" - even those who go green laning are ordinary people, men and women! Families out for a stroll sometimes do my head in as I have to listen to the "little darlings" shouting, screaming, whining and crying, not to mention dropping shit loads of litter but I don't go round telling them to go and find some other way to get their family jollies. FFS, what happened to give and take?
I guess it just gives some people something else to moan about
