I was wondering if anyone here has ridden any lanes in this area, of particular interest to me are the following lanes;

181-009

181-016

181-015

181-023

If so can anyone give me some pointers on what to expect, im thinking of going exploring with a friend to see what these lanes are like, I dont think theres many members out this way that use these routes so im keen to explore. I understand its mighty close to the somerset border so its no wonder people arnt up this way much!! Any info would be great chaps..

Yep all 4 are good lanes and used by a few of us, nothing hairy about them, be worth doing 181-018 as well, go up to the top where you'll come to a T-junction, turn right and down the hill! You'll have fun if you try to go back up it The only one to watch out for in that area is 181-004, especially if you're a novice, but mind you I always include it in my novice runs, as I always forewarn them beforehand

 So when u gonna have ur bike back on the road, fancy coming along and showing me the way? saves me plodding along on my own and doing it

I can't at the mo mate, doing work on the bike, plus I've got wrong tyres on(dual sport for some road work). Once I get back from my trip in 3 weeks I'll be out. Give Olly Pyke or Jack(Delvey) a pm as they go out that way.

 Ok mate will do, the lane u mentioned, when u turn right at the t junction is that then a tarmac road or still a UCR? is it a dead end or can I avoid turning back, google earth doesnt show ****!!

181-007 is one of my Fav's for the great terrian and how it gently hides itself, ask Harty, if it weren't for him and his lads that lane would still be un rideable (hale the mighty lane clearers) 

Might go out that way in a few weeks say mid of Feb, can't until coz i'm tied up with lane clearing duties

Great area to ride in tho and your right doesn't see a lot of 2 wheeled engine activity but you know people could remedy this
