Adventure Bike Rider Forum

My first ABR rally and my first time off road and I really enjoyed both.

A few more pics from the "leisurely ride out"


Big leather clad finger was an unexpected obstical but we all got round


& Bonniebird in a ford


Big thanks to Mr. Beddows for suggesting the lanes
& to my 4 ridding buddies for the company.

Mr. Husky 510 rider hope you got your fuel, nice to meet you & thanks for the demonstration on how to ride down the steps :woohoo:

Rick

Another great weekend.
Thanks
Mark

Looked a good day with that bit of sun to make it even better

Hi all, yes rick i did eventully get my fuel. As i left you all and rode towards goathland i stopped and asked a local for garage advice. I was told that the 2 places in goathland you told me about closed sat afternoons! Rather than risk more miles running on fumes i was directed to another village, Lealholm. Here i got my fuel and somehow managed to put in, (according to the pump) more than husqvarna say the bike holds!!!! Anyhow, by then time was marching on and i returned home along Ruddland Rigg. Many thanks to all for allowing me to tag along. PS. i hope it didnt take too long to get the Honda imposter started after its last drowning! also, i think the lady honda rider should enter the Daker next year, judging by her speed on the last gravel track. All for now, hope to ride with you all again sometime.

Hi there,
Glad you got some fuel eventually
We got the Honda look-a-like started after 15 mins or so B)
I don't know about the Dakar :dry: but I am seriously thinking about doing the Intercontinental Rally........just gotta talk my husband into doing it as well
Maybe you'll join us up in the Peaks?
