Welcome to the forum, Andy.

In answer to Pug's query I see you're just East of me in Sidford where there are lots of muddy lanes. biggrin

Also, plenty of information and experience up for grabs here on the TTR forum.

Thanks guys. Met Brian at the Devon TRF meeting the other week. Ended up with the TTR from Exmouth... always open to advice. Yes based in Sidford but no off road experience yet. If you don't mind a newbie with no skill slowing you down I would love to come out.

Andy you are a bit away for ride over for a start out from Crediton - Exeter or okehampton For sure at this time of year but if you want to ride over or can van trailer the bike to the start point out this way we or maybe just me will be out Saturday 30th for a 4-6 hour run an can cover some very easy lanes to get you started an you can stop or cut out anytime you like. we don't take the piss an laff to much when people fall off [unless it's in a big puddle] an I'm a slow rider I use to ride Trial's years back an I just cant get up any speed up prefer a crawling speed over the ground just tip us a wink on hear if you want to go out or any Saturday you want a run we will probably be up for it unless it's pissing it down.

Thanks Martyn might well contact you. No trailer or van but would consider the ride over but first...

Need to ask Brian the guru if he will look over my bike now its mine. Few issues and I am sure he could quide me.

Brian is the man to get the bike sorted an ready to go into combat an then to then sort a list of bits bob an tools to carry on your trips plus point you to the right riding gear to sort a safe outcome to your first badger attack as they seem to be able to spot a novice riders a tip them over fast if you look hard in the vid you can just see the little bugger come in from the left ninja kicking the front wheel sideways putting me down hard on me left knee an side my mate Tom came back an was kind enough to lift the bike off me before he got round to eating me...............
