Re: Salisbury Plain Rally - so how was it for you

Thanks again to Mike for organising this rally; it was excellent. Danielle (DW) and I (DK) managed to take a few photos. See the links below: Link 1 Link 2 With regards to speeding on The Plain, the rough track that runs parallel to the northern perimeter track is now legal, which (in my book) makes...

Re: **Salisbury Plain Rally** - Please select a ride out option

All, I will be leading one of the more 'spirited' adventure bike runs. Just to let you know, I do not use the drop-off system on off-road runs. I use the traditional TRF system whereby everybody is responsible for ensuring that the person behind them does not get lost. Whenever you get to a junction...

Mike,

Re: Calling all riders who know Salisbury plain..a bit.

Mike, I can lead a ride-out on the Plain, if required. If you send me a GPX, I can base a run on it. We met at the Midlands rally - my bike was similar to that in the avatar (i.e. KTM 690 Adventure) but without the long-range tank. We had a chat about your days at Ordnance Survey. Regards, Dave

All,

KTM Dan and myself will be there.

I am happy to lead a group of up to seven total - anything to avoid the wretched, awful drop-off system. I'll be using the traditional TRF system.

Regards,

Dave

P.S. Hi Tramp!

Re: CCM test ride reports -

My girlfriend and I test rode a couple of GP450s on Salisbury Plain a week or so ago. This is what I wrote back to Alice at CCM: Thank you, Jack and Ben for arranging the test rides. The mixture of on-road and off-road riding gave a good overall impression of what the bike could do. Ideally, I would...

Re: ABR Chilterns Chill Out Rally 2, April 4th - 6th April 2014

GOG, Sorry to rain on your sandwiches but I got this reply when I tried to book the campsite with Charles Leech: ~~~~~~~~~~~ Dave, Thankyou for the e.mail. I haven't had any other enquiries but I'm afraid I cannot accept any bookings until I have spoken to the organiser. As this is a family campsite...
