Agreeing with George here (
) ...
The concept is interesting but basically there are almost no routes in the sense of an english "Green Lane" here in Scotland so its pretty much a non-starter. All our GRR take place on land where we are driving with the landowners permission - often hard won.
The concept of the "over-used Green Lane" that are controlled by voluntary restrictions down south is therefore a non-starter. The routes don't exist so they can't be "over-used". What there are are various sites where people go to play with their bike or 4x4 without permission - old bings and other derelict land, as seen on U-Tube etc. Whats happening there is actually illegal and I doubt we would be doing our case any good at all by publicising any such action.
On the more positive side, the Club does get involved in working with landowners who have let us use their land for events or GRR as a bit of a thank-you - standby for requests for volunteers to help with a bit of labouring next year.
Another positive bit of work might be to research the what routes do exist. The famous example would be the Corriearrack Pass - where the legal status is disputed by the landowner at the northern end and the route has been blocked for over 10 years. I'm not aware of any other legal routes tho - and I've been looking for a long time.
