I can't ever see myself doing that again, the politics and in-fighting did my head in. I know enough about ROW to manage by myself but for anyone new to the game then yes it's a good place to start. Your right there Bob i left the TRF many years ago because the politics were fucking ridiculous for what is just an organised group with like minded people who want to ride bikes off road legally. But the south wales group is now very different there is no noticeable click. i'm one of the admin on the group page and assistant rights of way officer which is a position i would never have seen myself with in the old group, In fact the south wales group is so successful we've had the top TRF boffin's poking their noses in to try and see what it is we are doing that is making the group so successful. Anyone can see it is because we as a group are not clicky and closed off and wary of new comers and share GPX routes on the page something no other group is willing to do 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the heaviest I can be at my height and stay within normal range is 79kg. Yup that's normal for someone who is 5' 5" LOL 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you will need your own bike but there are trial riding experiences that supply you a bike if you wanted to try before you buy, the TRF is just a group who help keep the lanes open and will fight the corner of their members if accused of riding illegally when their not and if your in a good group will invite you on organised rides and show you around. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
