Can anyone recommend a place between Axminster and Exeter that does a good job of whee refurb, powder coating? Missus has a new car and wants the wheels redoing...
Sad news. Andy Round, possibly better known as AndyXT, passed away suddenly on the 28th December at the tender age of 59. He had been a member for a number of years and rode out with many of us on his old XT550. He was a regular at meetings until the XR was off the road being repaired. His funeral will be at To...
If you haven't already get yourselves down to the doctors and get your Prostate checked. It is one of the most common cancers in men I am 60 and completely symptom free but went for a simple MOT at the doctors. The DRE (Digital rectal examination- finger up the ********) was initially inconclusive but...
Has anyone got a HPI trade account. I understand on a trade account its possible to check by frame number is a frame has ever been registered, if it has (and not stolen), its then possible to apply for a V5 with the reg number. Happy to pay, there is someone called Yodi that keeps popping up on searches, b...
I have ridden this lane many times pre 2006 when it was a RUPP. It's in Somerset near Bruton. Then it was a solid surfaced Iundamaged lane. Then along comes SCC urged on by the anti vehicle lobby and reclassified all the Somerset RUPPs as restricted Byways. Obviously patting themselves on their backs f...
Hi, has anyone got a Ktm Tpi 2017-19. How have they found them, have they had any problems with it. Read there is bit of a problem with it not lubing the piston sufficiently causing premature wear. Not really any clear pros cons online. Some say stick with a carbed bike, others love it. Real reviews f...
Can someone tell me how to put pictures into run write ups, not just as an attachment. cheers Trev -- Edited by Trevor Foxon on Monday 14th of January 2019 08:48:50 PM
Unusually I am writing this while the run is actually taking place, without me. The run filled up within hours of being posted, but you know what they say about the best laid plans..... Mattyboy said he would be there like a shot but a prearranged bondage session took priority, well he said he was tied up...
Me and the wife are planning a run out on the bikes from Chagford on Sunday, does anyone know where I can park the trailor for a few hours, in or near the village. I was go to do part of the Xmas eve route. cheers Trev
This is an old postcard showing what Beggars Roost, Lynton Hill, Countisbury Hill, Dean Steep and Porlock Hill looked like back in the day - perhaps between the wars? They look so different to today that I almost wonder if they are correctly named Brian

Hi All, This lane nr Lopwell does not seem to feature on the Devon Definitive map and is locally signposted as a permissive path blocked at each end by styles. Should it be on our list? Sorry to raise it on this part of the forum but I cant get on to the members only parts (could someone fix it for me to be able t...

I've been out again on my own version of The Exeter Trial today but I'm calling it THE EAST DEVON bit of a TRAIL instead Mrs Cubber decided that she would walk to East Budleigh and exercise our dog, Jedi so we dressed for the cold and set off. Jedi and Mrs Cubber decided they'd go via 192-177 and 192-176 to ge...
Has anybody got a workshop manual for a 1992 yamaha serow you could sell me ? Also can someone recommend a internet site for parts please. would appreciate any help. Steve
After discovering that I only rode the CRM seven or eight times last year I was determined to ride more often and so the first run of the year was posted. The six replies for the five places available was resolved when Wezz had something come up and dropped out. Mattyboy deserves credit for making the rid...

Future projects involving green roads, repairs needed on washed out badly eroded (Not rideable on two wheelsClearing of totally blocked roads or semi blocked Each road will be judged on its own merits and probably how easy a fix! Not looking for a political discussion just ascertaining whats out...
Because of the way this goes on, I'm not expecting anyone to say yes, but: Someone rode through Upcott (near Welcombe) around 3.30 this afternoon. They rode along a stretch of private road (not marked private, but it is), down a section of my neighbour's private drive, then along a Bridleway through p...
