Went to the TRF Event day at Harberton and had a yap with a few faces I haven't seen for a while, then met a couple of friends (Non TRF) and did the lanes around Kingsbridge and East Prawle, my first full day out on the old CRM and by the end of the day I loved it, nice power and so light and fling aroundable Th...
Heard of arm pump before and suffered ache in the forearms on occasion - but hellfire today Doug will testify to the fact that my second finger of both hands completely 'doubled back' and locked up today.......Couldn't pull the clutch in to stop with the left, and as I had the front brake covered with th...
I've been looking at electric trials bikes, just out of curiosity, and am becoming really impressed by them. It seems like you could produce a really excellent electric trail bike too. Ive seen various reports of the E trials machine lasting over 4 hours on a charge, and they are lighter than their pe...

'Streetlife' is a facility to create local special interest groups and my allotment association set one up for us to share info on growing veg. We soon abandoned it when we started receiving cart loads of posts from other Streetlife groups in the area which were almost universally moaning about some...

Dear all After much consideration I have decided that i would like to get into the classic scrambling / MX scene. I was thinking of the mid eighties or early nineties era, which I understand is the Evo - Super Evo. I'm not terribly fast but just fancy a bit of racing on something that I can tinker with / pr...

There is now another local company/person that has set a business of running enduro-style practice days on private land. A guy called Matt from Endurocks runs these, dont think he's known to many of us as he used to help run Enduroland based in the Midlands (they ran practice days and Enduros). He...

These fun days are very laidback and relaxed and great for getting to know other riders in your a...
Just wondered if anyone has or had a WR250R as I quite like the idea of one if I can lower it enough for my stumps. After riding the AJP250 water cooled one I was quite impressed how good it was and very light with a long 2 yr warranty so also tempted by one of those. So Im still undecided but would be good to hear...
Had a ride around the Honiton area this morning,very nice!Not very good at posting my pics I am afraid, if anyone can turn two of them through 90 degrees please do.
I had few hours on the lanes and took some pics... All lanes are 180 Started off on 029, the short climb from Braunton Quickly followed by 193, dead end at a bridleway, worth the ride for the view over the estuary... 192 has been resurfaced at the Croyde end. Next up was 021 with three gates, before drop...
Hi guys, Just went out for a quick blat on my 1992 Kawasaki KLX250R, I'm exploring very near to me lanes around Exminster. I've attached an image from Google Earth, which shows a TRF marked lane entitled 192-151. I rode out to it, thinking it did literally follow the green line, but heck knows it doesn'...
