So maybe now its stopped raining we can do this!
We'll probably meet at the start of the Ridgeway in Streatley around 6.30pm.
Ideally we'll get a group of 6 or so GS / KTM Adv / newbie riders up for a spot of introductory Green Laning on the Berkshire downs.
It'll be an easy route aimed squarely at first timers. Road tyres will be fine although if its really wet we'll have to cancel.
No real rules, other than its all at your own risk etc etc. Only thing I insist on is stout boots. I have a few spare pairs of MX boots you can borrow if needed (9 & 10).
It'll be no Walters Arena style experience but its free and I can give you a bit of advice on enjoying your big bike on the slippery stuff. I'll also introduce you to the TRF (Trail Riders Fellowship) who are active in the Thames Valley with groups in Oxford and in Reading (Lodden Valley). The TRF is instrumental in keeping green lanes open for use by responsible motorcyclists and if have an interest in this its well worth joining.
Put your name down on the thread if interested and if it happens I'll see you come the day.
Full RV instructions will follow, with a bit of faffing we should plan on a good hour or two on the trails, and be able to squeeze in a quick pint to round things off.
