We'll meet at the Bull in Streatley with a view to setting off at 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. Wear the stoutest boots you have. 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.

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.
 
Damn it, I'm on call that week :(

If things change and I can make it back from work in time though, I'm up for it.
 
I have a bit of time on my hands at the moment, I am very interested. Is it dependent on numbers?
 
CANCELLED - Or at least postponed

Sorry guys I have my Australian biz partner over this week and the dinner I had scheduled with him tonight has been moved to Weds 26th.

So unless anyone else wants to take the mantle and lead a ride I will have to call it off.

Sorry.

I'll put a new post up when I have a date in mind. Its too hot to ride anyway!
