Greetings from Skipton North Yorkshire

Post by stevenburles »

Hi ABR folks,

Myself and a good friend of mine will be collecting our spanking brand new 2017 Africa Twin's on 1st March. To say we are excited is an understatement.

Both coming from sports bikes though we have some learning to do. Looking to ease into it with some Scotland and Ireland trips then further afield possibly Norway.

Keen to get off road and learn some new riding skills. Looking at the Honda Adventure Centre in Wales for some skills.

Anyone out there in the local area i.e. Lake District closest playground would be interested in some noobie friendly green lanes.

Here's to adventure!!!

Hi Steve

Welcome aboard. So as Anthony says, if you are fancying a trip to Ireland, why not get yourselves over to our ABR Ireland Rally in May, which I'm hosting.

Have a look here http://www.adventurebikerider.com/forum ... hread.html

Welcome from the other side of Leeds. There are at least a handful of lanes in the dales I've seen in the ABR back catalogue. I'll be trying them myself once I get some more appropriate tyres fitted.
