I have received the following email from Mike Wain from the Bristol and Central Bristol TRF group as follows;
''To highlight the diversity of lanes across the country, in conjunction with Rick Kemp, the TRAIL magazine Editor, I'm trying to pull together information/pictures to enable a series of Gallery specials featuring images on a theme from all around the country, along with a little information and a link back to where it is on the GRM.
As no one person knows all the lanes. I'm hoping that you guys can quickly tell me what lanes you have (if any) in your area that fit various categories, plus (where I'm not already a member of your group) put a request via your group pages/newsletter for print quality photos of said lanes showing the feature (wording will be supplied - getting photos of the right quality, showing the right things and not showing the wrong things is not as simple as it sounds!).
Members can then send images direct back to me without troubling you further using the email mikewain@rocketmail.com
To kick things off and see if this works the first 3 categories we are thinking of doing are:
1 - Railways, particularly level crossings, but also lanes with particularly outstanding views of viaducts, bridges or other train related stuff and perhaps lanes along disused railways, if any exist.
2 - Unusual road furniture on lanes, e.g. traffic lights, one way street signs, odd warning or restriction signs, anything unusual to do with signs really, whether official or not.
3 - Lanes that go ALONG rivers or streams (NOT straight across fords or sea-water!)''
If anyone has any photos that fit the bill (I'm not sure exactly what 'print quality photos' means), can you please email them to Mike at mikewain@rocketmail.com with either the Devon reference number or the Green Roads Map GRMUID number.
