Little gem of a 1994 programme, old bikes and new, on the famous Ridgeway and its History

Trailriding was so much easier, even accepted back then and promoted by TV stars

Where have gone so wrong, in 20 short years :(

Ian Ritchie and his cronies at the 'Friends of the Ridgeway' had a lot to do with restricting the vehicular use of large sections of it
 
thank you, that filled my lunch hour very nicely :)
I spent 5 days trail riding in Wiltshire last August - still plenty to explore & I was shocked to see most byways signposted! - they want folk to use them!
