When XR200's roamed the planet - 80's trail riding photos


Some 80's trail riding from Devon/Exmoor, Wales and Ireland. I dug them out of a cupboard this weekend - enjoy!

Brilliant nostalgia trip and good photography too, presumably taken on film originally.  Loved the XTs, SPs, DTs etc.

Loved the shot of the bloke doing the soggy walk of shame at Tarr steps being overtaken by another rider crossing the long ford

Yes dad started on a DT175, moving onto a Suzuki SP370 which he never really liked, the a BMW 650 their first trail bike I guess and finished on a Honda Xr200. The photos are digitised slides, still in as good condition as when they were taken over 30 years ago!
