I wonder if anyone has asked themselves seriously what the actual problem is?

Perhaps it's ramblers, horse riders and NIMBYs complaining to the councils (or being horse riders, to their daddies) about the number of bikes out there?

So the response it to flood the area with as many bikes as possible for a week?





Fuck that......take your number plates off, stick on your loudest exhaust slip ons, most aggressive knobblies. cut down as many fences as you possibly can , wreck gates, let cows and horses out all over the roads, terrorise the kagoul wearing rambling twats, scare the shyte out of the stupid horse riders and generally stick two fingers up at them....a couple of dozen golf courses ridden over during the day would work well too

Them some suited TRF geezer can walk into the council offices and tell them quite clearly that it wouldn't have happened if decent law abiding riders could be held accountable for it by being able to ride with legal bikes identifiable from their numberplates, insured, taxed and totally legit.

Demonstrating by riding legally is effective as standing outside the houses of commons softly whispering "I disapprove"

I take it you won't be coming along then

Seriously, if anyone enjoys trail riding and you are free on Tuesday, then please bring a legal bike (no miniscule number plates please) and make your presence felt. Rides are being organised and will be in groups of up to 6 so that we aren't accused of flooding the lanes. It's not going to cure all (or indeed any) of the problems but by demonstrating that we DON'T hoon around everywhere on the back wheel, it simply promotes the fact that we are willing to share the lanes, unlike the selfish, rampant ramblers.

If you want more details and aren't prepared to sign up to the forum (you don't need to be a TRF member to use the forum) you can PM me and I'll send you the details.

Approve or not its fact that the areas of the country that have active TRF groups have far more lanes and areas where the TRF is not active a lot of the lanes have been lost,were it not for the TRF virtually all the lanes would have been lost in the early 1980s.
