This. We won't stop them but they should be aware if they post evidence on the web, we will lose (in this case) Cradle Lane.

"Infiltration " you are joking right?, Illigal riding will always go on,as Billy says the more legal lanes and legal tracks that are closed then the more illegal riding there will be, period. Guys be serious , do you think reaching out to them will really work? I mean good luck if it does. Speeding has always been against the law and I bet 99.99% of us regularly do it,and imagine next time you do then stop at some lights and some guy or other pulls up next to you and tries to reach out and tell you to drive more responsibly ,what will you do ? Say ok friend thank you for pointing out the errors of my ways I will change my ways. Or as a fully grown up tax paying member of society with your own morals and rules (to a point) tell him or her to go forth and fornicate with them selves. We are not the Police ,they hopefully will use 95% of their overstretched recourses catching proper criminals, and have no power to educate other grown ups, and IMO would cement the general view of non TRF members of said TRF members as old womenAnd clickey busy bodies? Over a pint if you chat with a bloke and find out he rides illegally all the time then gently have a word. Just my opinion
