so asking the question 'why is off-roading so destructive' the Friends of the Peak District have answered it...

It falls beautifully in the centre of the argument....

And what will the off roaders get out of it ?

It really is up to them to address that problem;), if they can afford second cars to mess around in then presumably they can afford to pay the rent to some farmer who doesn't mind his tracks being messed up, bit like paintballing of course and I've seen plenty of motor bike field layouts on farms.
The point of this particular thread is that the sensitivity of the two green lanes within the Peak district is worrying for the safety of the children, horse riders walkers etc, they are put into a dangerous position!
