Having walked, rambled, hiked, climbed, rode horses, rode mountain bike, green laned 4x4 and motorbiked a little. I can honestly say that each and everyone of them damages lanes in the wet. Anyone going in to Breacon, Black Mountain, Dartmoor, Peaks, Moors, Snowdon, Scotland, downs and a million other places will have seen the damage as well as little paths in towns and cities. Not one of the groups will support the other, that's why it has taken so long to get access rights to many areas of land.
Most areas have footpath/lane maintaince teams and I'm please to say I used to help out when I lived with y parents. But the biggest issue was it was very clicky and if you were with one interest groups then anyone from another was forced out. Many time around Keevil we could have done with a 4x4 to move sawn logs and the like.
But as has been said there are always one or two tossers to spoilt it. I used to ide my mountain bike up on Westbury white horse and there is a fab down hill section which was trashed when a not local culb decided to shut the footpath for the day and 'improve' the section for their day. I won't have minded but it was a great uphilll 4x4 section. They even cut out sections on the footpath part which made is damn dangerous fr horseriders.
As for horses tearing up the land, take a trip to Alison's and peer over her fence to see it for real. |

You're the ladder holder! You hit him and knocked him out. Possibly what he actually means is "tweet tweet tweet" too... _________________ *All* tiles now up in the bathroom! A bit of grouting to go and it'll be a finished room
