Read about green laning as seen through Lauren ‘Sunshine’ Eaton's windscreen at The Green Lane Association, and find out what’s hot, or not, in the laning world each month. Enjoy!

The best things come to those who wait Please note that this was written over a week before publishing, things may change during June. If I had a pound for every time I've been asked "Can we go laning yet?", I'd have retired by now. While I'm not always known for my patience - I'm a get it done person - I have learned over the years that sometimes the best thing I can do, especially if I really care about the future of something, is to wait. GLASS is made up of an executive committee of enthusiastic green laners, along with non-executive officers and reps who hold the same passion for the hobby - so much passion that we give up our free time to protect it for everyone else on top of our day jobs in most cases, and irrespective of how that is publicly perceived sometimes. We're all itching to get back out, I'm no exception either, I literally live in my Land Rover, on the road for the majority of the year. I lane daily, it's more than a hobby to me it's part of my job, and without it I'm stuck living a life I gave up in exchange for a freedom I value above what I left behind.

I get it, GLASS gets it, we all want to be back out on the lanes, but is it the right thing to do?
