Welcome to the forum Martin! I think the nearest member to you will be ttrsteve in Monkokehampton. Steve is organising a TTR rideout from East Devon and it would be good if you can join us wink

I live on the other side of Exeter.

Hi Martin

Welcome to the world of ttr'sbiggrinbiggrin

We have some nice lanes to do out this way and you would be welcome to join us for a ride out, might be out for an evening ride soon, will let you know. Like Bri has said I am planning a ride out from Woodbury soon, cracking run and camping nearby, be good if you could make it.

Your bike looks pretty clean, mine isn't so pretty, but goes like a rocket and is sort of mechanically soundwinkwink

Steve

hi steve
would be interested in the evening ride not been out your way before, as for the woodbury rideout will have to see if it clashes with any south west trials champ rounds as i'm concentrating on them this year :)
the bike is in pretty good shape just the usual things to play around with, if the speedo is right its done 5200kms

Hi Martin

Might get to plan an evening ride in a couple of weeks time, are you riding over or will you bring the bike over on trailer? As I would need to know what time to finish the run, as you might not want to ride home in the dark? Trail bike lights are no better than candlescrycry
