Hi - anyone know good lanes or places to go around Oxfordshire?? I'm trying to get SWMBO into off roading, but Avon Dassett is a little too extreme for her, so looking for something a little lighter - any ideas?

Too old to care, young enough to remember -
Get hold of OS Explorer (Orange 1:25,000) scale map sheet 191 and Outdoor Lesuire Map sheet 45. All the byways and NCR's are marked. There are quite a few down your way and in the Cotswolds.
A word of caution- don't go green laning alone unless you know the route. Unlike a 'pay-n-play' day there won't necessarily be someone around to pull you out. I know.....I've paid the price for going it alone on an unfamiliar route!
Keep an eye on Mudclub Forum....I think there's a group of Cotswold regulars on there. -
Cheers Neville - I have some maps so wil plan some routes for next week, and I'll look over Mud Club to see who is around...Too old to care, young enough to rememberComment
