I had a (very) rare afternoon off today, with nothing particular to do... :)

... so thought I'd go and have chat with Bahnstormer about test riding new bikes, and on the way see if I could find a green lane to explore.

Put in Bahnstormer's postcode into here: http://whereilive.hants.gov.uk/rightsofway/webform1.aspx and found a BOAT at East Tisted, just off A32. Armed with Google Maps printout, I found West Tisted, but struggled to find Clinkley Road.

Then I spotted a rather ancient-looking sign "right of way"... goes down the side of a large farmyard... nice little ride across edge of field, then comes to a gate. Does anyone know whether the right of way extends beyond the gate? (last 2 photos - ancient sign on tree, but couldn't read it). Gate wasn't locked, but I just turned around and went back anyhow. I might explore further next week on Bahnstormer's demo bikes!

OK, not the most adventurous of green lanes, but a fun little distraction on a sunny day, and somewhere with a nice view to eat my sarnies. :)

(PS: didn't have my camera with me, so phone photos only... sorry for poor quality :o )

So do we have a record

Captain posts an article about a byway and 2 posts later we are off topic and attacking Prem again - is it something about the Captain or something about Prem we should be worried about?

If the farmyard was Manor Farm then that was Clinkley Rd according to my map. It only goes a short way finishing at Bramdean Common, looks like less than a mile long.
There's another very slightly longer byway to the north running almost parallel. I'd say that one is about 1/4 mile north off the same road at a sharp right hander.

Alternatively if you've a coupla hours on your hands you could go north to Alton/Basingstoke area. There's lots around there and Dolly Rocket is quite familiar wi them. He's taken a couple of us round them a few times now.
Enjoy
