Hi Folks, I'm considering a 4Ride to see me into my dotage, and have just had a look at a 17 plate model with the S3 electric start mod. I was expecting the button to kick it into life, but it didn't seem to be man enough for the job. The seller said that the engine needs to be warm for it to work properly. The b...
Hello Im after photos from T2T for this months newsletter. I would like either action shots or big group shots from the start of the day, or group shots from individual groups. Please send them to newsletter@trfdevon.org.uk Cheers Mike
Well, someone certainly ordered the right weather for a weekend of riding. The forecast was set for glorious sunshine and that's what we got today. Superb. The day started early, 06:30 early!, to allow for a quick dog walk then out to the garage to don the gear and grab the bike then it was off to meet Ru...
Well what a weekend that was. We were very blessed by the weather, which made the 2 days riding even better than they already were. The weather also made it possible for our guests to chill outside there tents and campervans, caravans and statics after their days out. On Saturday and Sunday we had 74 ri...
Another breezy start and commute from Plymouth to Parkers Farm at Ashburton but indeed worth it, not only for the awesome 'Belt Buster' breakfast bap but also the day that lay ahead. Are you sitting comfortably, cos here comes the report. The route today was 'South Hams with Beaches' which aside bei...
I don't currently hold a full motorbike license but would like somewhere I can get out on my bike for a day's enduro. Willing to travel anywhere for a suitable location that is open weekdays. Does anyone know any enduro venues that are open weekdays? Thank you

Hello guys I'm just starting out with green laning and looking at what type of protective equipment I need to. I have the basics like gloves and helmet but really looking for recommendations what type of body armour/ knee braces people wear. Ideally something that's not too uncomfortable but not goi...

As not everyone can get on lane clearing. 202-036 GRM 5552 Rocombe/Gabwell area Multiple trees down. Met 2 riders at the top, they cleared what they could to get up it. So we rode down it, that was very difficult! No idea how they got up it.
Another month, another newsletter. Follow the link below: March 2025 Newsletter See you all next month. If anyone's got any news, events, stories, etc, send them my way please.

Please check your email and also spam just in case. thanks Trevor does anyone know how to upload an excel spread sheet to here. -- Edited by Trevor Foxon on Monda...
During a recce yesterday one of the classic runs out from Parkers is blocked. Not only that but its a narrow lane and you need to be able to pivot turn to head back down. Or reverse which is what we did taking quite some time. so unless a clearance has taken place avoid this on your T2T planning. The lane is j...
Hi as a newbie just trying to figure out how I get the routes into a satnav. As a technophobe it needs to be simple want to avoid plotting routes if possible. Thanks
Went to north Devon finally after planning a ride that was meant to happen over Christmas holidays but I got ill and had been put off up until now. We parked outside mole valley (North Devon tyres) south molton and had a a nice quick bap from the kenneford burger van. Unloaded and got to the roads in the l...
Hello guys I'm new to the group and look forward to meeting some people getting out for a ride. I've just picked up a second hand beta x trainer and whilst I'm getting confident with maintaining the bike I would ideally like to find a mechanic to give it a once over. Does anyone have a mechanic they coul...
As per the title, the get together will be at our temporary new home in the Cat and Fiddle, Clyst St Mary. Topics for discussion will be the up coming Teign to Tamar. and the organisation of the groups with their leaders and TECs.

So Day 2 and a South hams route, visiting two great beaches along the way, myself and Geoff Kelly met the Essex guys at Totnes and we set off towards Harberton, then Diptford, Wheeldon and Halwell, then on towards Woodleigh and South Milton, (beautiful beach) then into Kingsbridge for fuel and to pick...
For nearly ten years now, normally in March and November I have had the pleasure of show these guys around our beautiful lane, their base being at Tuckenhay at one of their brothers houses and a few staying in the pub. We have also shown them around the plains and Wales over the years. A great day, for day...
You may be familiar with these, I was not. A fully waterproof case BUT with the added bonus that you can run directly from our normal USB set ups. As per Sat navs.
Hi all The Grizzly is on again, so best avoiding the lanes and back roads around Beer, Seaton and Branscombe on Sunday, and be careful on the Saturday too as lots of people setting up the course.
Noel has managed to contact John son and he has updated us with his progress. John is still quite unwell and back in hospital. We wish him all the best and are thinking of him. As before he will not be able to process any requests. Trevor
Cant for the life of me find it, but am I right in thinking Somerset has a stash of Trackers for sale? Does anyone know who is the appropriate person to contact?
