as a walker my self and a member of the BMC you have a n pub like liability insurance so Ramblers should have it as members but that dose not give them the right to try and ban others if the stopped it all you will still get deep rutted tracks and bogey tracks from farm tractors but then look at all national parks where 4x4 don't go and see the mess that is made and the money that is spent on the paths i have a friend that had 3 helicopter lifting stone flags up in the dales and lacks and Darbyshire at £1200 pe hr per helicopter but that is ok nothing saidHome of RLD Hidden winch mounts Spare wheel Locks Trailer Body Fabrication ray@rld-tech.co.uk D3/4 sump plates MY 14 sump plates and the Discovery Sport wheel protectors Discovery 5 wheel locks

Where've you been the last 10 years? Long time since I saw any real balance in their programming. Leftist-green slant to everything they report.
I've sadly accepted that "they" have won. We stopped doing voluntary lane clearances in Dorset last year when yet more lanes were closed due to nimby rambler representations. It will be 2-3 years at most before most lanes in the county are impassable on foot or horseback let alone by 4x4. They reap what they sow.I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Sounds like Countryfile has moved it's yardstick
Some years ago I did some filming with Countryfile as the GLASS rep (in a met red RRC) and it was a well balanced article (which I was surprised by).
Looks like they have gone back for another go. I'll have to look it up on iplayer.D3 2.7tdv6 SE Manual - SOLD

I hate you as well now shooting / hunting the same for me
Thinking of Kiera to do some Coursing we need to chat
Country file? biased? Why would it be?
Who is one of the main presenters = Julia Bradbury!
What is her other postion of note = Big cheese of the Ramblers Association!
Ken - are you sure the reason you're hated is down to the 4x4's and shooting...? The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
