Don't be silly , can you really see Pete on a trail fixing a puncture

So the two main types of trail in England and Wales are shown on OS maps, that doesn't mean definitvely that they are legal but it's a good guide. They are know as 'Byways open to all traffic ' or BOAT or simply BYWAY and the others are ORPA's or other route with public access, these are more commonly known as UCR's (Unclassified County Roads). Byways are shown on OS maps as a series of red crosses and ORPAs as a series of red dots, you can see some on this OS map of part of the Peaks. But that best way to find out where you can ride as @Buckster and @Sir Fallsalot have said is to join the TRF (Trail Riders Fellowship) . That way you will get access to the Green Road Map which will give you lots of other information .

There's no such thing as 'ride where you want' as far as trails are concerned.

Came across this lot when we out yesterday

Never heard a dildo called that before ..........

@busabeast

I think you dropped your flashing light and dildo , the one's you use to entice the DBM's into those abandoned buildings ..........................

Packed and ready to hit the road

First Kove puncture

It was so funny as she couldn’t work out how my leg came off

She

It’s not the best mate but it was on the bike when I got it. I’m taking a leaf out of your book and using it until it’s bald

Yep

This is the coolest coffee cup ever ….

Same here Saul , I’m surrounded by them in work but I have no interest in riding them . The only sports bike I kept for any time was my RD350YPVS

I blame Barry Sheen

Pit stop in Northleach

The 'old' engine know as the RFS (2002-2007) is widely regarded as the best engine KTM ever built . The engines from 2008-2012 were not as good , held less oil and were prone to early destruction. Then they got it right again with the newer (2013 0n ) engines . That's why 400, 450 and 525 EXC models (RFS engine) hold their value . Go on the KTM UK forum for guys who are in the know . https://www.ktmforum.co.uk/forums/

That one really cracks me up , as if it's going to make a difference to your average Joe on road tyres ..............

No, Redditch tonight then two nights in the Peak district.

Loading the last bit of kit onto the Yamaha and then I'm off 'oop north for a couple of days of camping , riding and drinking . It will be interesting to see how the Yam goes with all the kit on there .............

I doubt if they can see it even with a MRI scan ............

I've had three DRZ's . There is a trail model 'S' and an enduro model 'E' . The E has the livelier engine and the S has more road niceties. They are great bikes apart from the lack of a 6th gear but the newest one would be over 15 years old now. Having said that if you buy a good one it won't lose value but there are some proper dogs out there which could be a money pit. This one is decent as it's almost standard so you know it hasn't been mucked about ......... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145712371681?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D777008%26algo%3DPERSONAL.TOPIC%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20230811123856%26meid%3Df624ebe8b2ad4e1c9362fe5112fd1e47%26pid%3D101770%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26itm%3D145712371681%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D4375194%26algv%3DRecentlyViewedItemsV2&_trksid=p4375194.c101770.m146925&_trkparms=parentrq%3Ac97800a218e0a4f2f37602b5ffffe35c|pageci%3Af32877df-f76f-11ee-bfcd-8acb9bdb13f9|iid%3A1|vlpname%3Avlp_homepage
