I can't recommend any but I'll certainly join you if you organise anything local-ish! ____

Get yourself an OS map and get out looking!! Little Downham for example has about 8 Green Lanes to the East of it, have a look on here http://wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepath.htm 2014 D4 XS

Hi J@mes, yes ... but - I'm new to this but I understand that the fact that they're on an OS map doesn't mean they're open though... TROs can change the rules temporarily or permanently. Even definitive Maps held by CC offices won't show temp restrictions. Local knowledge and experience essential.
More info and help / guidance from more experienced members welcome...
Thanks. ____

Yep, very true - I go out and have a look for signs of closure - barriers, signs etc. Then if I am happy that it is open, I'll drive it, if not I wont! 2014 D4 XS

As long as you are not laning alone and recovery gear is on hand, don't worry about getting stuck, it's all part of the fun!

And I'm about 70 miles to the West of you but would join-in given enough notice!
I've done quite a lot of laning over the last 12 months but mainly mid-Wales which was awesome- though the hills are less high in Norfolk from recollection! I've also got some recovery straps...  D4 HSE in Stornoway- love it. Jaguar XF, MG TF, D2 ES V8 and 2x TR7s for playing!
Gone- D3- a fortune spent and now a lovely car for it's new owner; D2 G4 replica- Tangiers Orange and survivor of 2 Pot Noodle Challenge's!
