The Group needs to buy a projector and screen for use at meetings (e.g. mapping workshops) and when we have guest speakers as I no longer have access to the one I used to bring along. Can anyone either recommend a good place to buy one or perhaps get one with a discount through their work? As usual, look...
Some of you that may have read a recent thread/response of mine may recall I mentioned that during a recent holiday to Kefalonia in Greece, I got offered the opportunity to ride the hotel owners 1980 XT 500. The hotel owners name was Billy, a proper decent fella, that made everyone that stayed at his hot...
I would like to thank all members who helped make Sunday the great day it was. I took a fair risk on Sunday running a trail ride for people with disability in Cardinham Woods amongst the general public with children, dogs, cyclist and horse riders but the end result could not have been better. Forestry c...

Some good discussion tonight from the AGM and the RoW stuff, and a lot of new members too Good to hear positive feedback about the recent Cornish tail ride for the less able-bodied too, good PR for the TRF an...
Could not wait for a group run so went out and did a few local lanes by myself this afternoon. ( Yep just like Ming no mates!) Well I think the bikes great, lives up to its reputation as the trail riders choice. Havent checked what the gearing is but it went up some steepish stuff comfortably in second. (191...

I was walking in Scarson woods (Holicombe to ****ington area torbay) which are obviously old roads made up of much labour. There were no souls about and I was thinking in these austere time of budget cuts they should close this for a day and charge the TRF £5 - £10 a rider for two hours use ... councils n...
Well lucky old me has just come back from a ten day tour of Spain in the sun on the SP1........we stumbled into the newly-built Motorland complex at Circuit Aragon - what a place! Quite apart from hosting Moto GP a short while ago, this place also boasts a tarmac practice track (Karting, race bikes and th...
Bumped into 2 TRF members whilst we were waiting for our party to make it up 191-088 on Saturday (09-10-10) afternoon. We caused a bit of a jam, but the other chaps showed them how it should be done. I'll be buying an MT43 when my rear next needs changing! -- Edited by wackyracer on Sunday 10th of October...
Actually no, they are still in the YZ and working fine! I have a soft spot for 2 stokes and Kerry invited me down to play with his YZ 250 to test whether his softening has made the beast a bit more tractable- the last time I rode it it was all I could do to keep the front wheel down and the bike in a straight line!...

Being someone who has posted many ride reports, which generally take a reasonable amount of time and effort - including uploading of photos - I cannot help but see the general feedback on this has plummeted in the last 12 months or so. About a year ago maybe I would average 18+ replies to my reports and t...
I noticed an error on a new red V5 for a TTR I bought back in the summer and sent just the front page back to DVLA with the correction on 19 September. Despite chasing it up I still haven't got the corrected V5 although I did keep the New Keeper Supplement so I have the new V5 document reference. I have now sol...
