It’s an age-old question: Where can you legally ride off-road in the UK?

The answer? Green Lanes!

Green Lanes are legal roads in the UK, but unlike a typical road, are not covered in tarmac or other hardened coverings. Due to the low footfall of traffic, these roads are usually covered in grass, plants or mud –  hence the term “green” lane.

Chris Moss, a respected freelance motorcycle journalist who has been riding bikes and writing about them for over 25 years, is a seasoned off-roader on two-wheels. Last month, he joined an exclusive Club Polaris member ride-out for a day of green laning, but with a twist: This time, he swapped two wheels for four.
