i have a yamaha dt 125 that is illegal for the road (has no lights etc) and i wondered if you could ride it anywhere else other than fields, such as bridel ways or pathways as there are not many fields in the area of england that i live. many thanks.

The only place you will be able to ride legally is on a motocross track which will cost you in the region of £20+ a day. You can't even ride on byways anymore on a road legal bike - then they wonder why there are so many people riding illegally...... bloody government !!!

I have ridden just about every road in my county as well as many roads in N. America including some in Alabama. I have never heard of such a thing as it being illegal to ride on a public road with a horse. There may be a bylaw in some little towns or cities that the horse poop is an issue. You would have to get in touch with the Madison County roads people to see if there has been a by law passed. Most N. American towns and counties have an old grand father clause that give horses the right of way in any given circumstance. Best to check with the authorites then you will know for sure.

Unfortunately, the government has decided that the use of the green lanes (public bridal ways etc) by motorcycles is no longer allowed. You can only use your bike on private land with the landowners permission. Be advised that you will still be harassed by the local constabulary if you are deemed to be a nuisance and get reported by anyone who does not like the fact that you are not harming anyone else and are trying not to ride your bike illegally. Some people ave nothing better to do. The only other option is to use a motocross practise track. Most charge in the region of £20 per day to use.

Your best bet is to ask a farmer to go in one of his fields, further away from houses as possible, put on a road legal can this will quieten down a bit.Being the owner of a CRF 450, I go to motocross track when I race or just go for fun, if you go on a mx track with your DT it wont last long as they are not up to with standing ruts, jumps and table tops, unless you have upgraded the suspension etc. once you go to a track you will end up buying a mx bike,good luck.

These days you can't ride things like this anywhere. You are faced with a stark choice. Trailer it miles to somewhere you can ride it, fit lights and ride it on the road and become a target for every mobile biscuit tin around you, or, flog it.

The only place you can't ride it on is public roads, freeways, highways, bridal ways, pathways etc. You can ride it everywhere else with the landowners permission of course.

On privately owned land with the owners's permission. You might still get bothered by the cops if someone complains about the noise.
