    Done this trail once, but only as far as the farm gates, then we turned back.
    No where nearly as quick as you though!
    Really enjoyed it, definitely going again, and completing the lane next time!

      @rdownmakeITbetter the information I received before riding was that it is a legal right of way the sign is on the bridge which is owned and maintained by the farmer the actual road goes into the river I've never heard any one having problems in this route it gets used regularly but just be polite and carry on 👍

      @@ads_rides I spoke to the farmer a couple of years ago, really nice chap. He said the bridge is owned by the National Rivers Authority and has nothing to do with him. Looking at the OS map the by-way ends at the bridge, the rest is a UCR. The farmer did say he has no problem with people passing through as long as they close the gates and watch out for live stock.
