Off road north east

Agree with the Above Posts, If your looking for a bit of a pre Morocco Piste experience.

Rudland Rig from Bank Foot over towards Kirbymoorside and back is about the most accurate version of Morocco Trails you will get around North Yorkshire anyway. Its Rocky with some Steep sections and has a little bit of sand on the tops every now and then.

I did that track back and forth a good few times as pre Morocco Training during the Winter months fully loaded with luggage etc..

The first bit from Bank Foot ends in a fairly major Rocky Section which meant I had to manhandle the bike up and down, Although I did clean it once or twice but only through sheer luck and eyes closed :eek::D

Depends where you are going in Morocco I guess but if your heading into the Atlas Mountains this track will give you some idea of what you will face all be it a very very tame version of Morocco it was the best I could find near me.

go up and down it 20 times, and see how you feel, if you dont like it stay off the pistes in Morocco is my advice :eek
 
Itching to get my tkc's dirty. Does anyone know of any off road space or green lanes for me to get on for some ore morocco training? Any help or assistance gratefully recieved!

Michael, drop me a pm if you are interested in having a go at rudland rig.
I only live a couple of miles from bank foot and could have a mooch up with you in case you need an extra pair of hands.
I can also show you a couple of easier ways of getting onto the top without having to first tackle the tricky climb up Turkey nab from bank foot:thumb
 
Thanks to all for the responses. Great stuff. I will get back to you on those offers of guidance for sure. Me and my mate going to try to get up to kielder trails this sat afternoon and camp sat night as a pre morocco shake down.
