Hi Davies..
oh good another Tiger in the woods :laugh: :laugh: ..this ride out is strictly no Passengers due to Terrain and safety issues ..But Tourances are okay..But no attached Panniers either.

Lymington is not far from the campsite with a good street Market and Ferry to the Isle of Wight..should keep her busy.

*UPDATE*

The ride out will continue even if wet..after all the hard work ...

BUT for safety reasons and as some will have road based tyres on we will be assesing the trails as we ride them and if too slippery..[wilts meet proved that] some more suitable ones will be found..

This does not effect the Plain ranges as they are all hard gravel and puddles..so A good day out will still be had by all.

Just bring some suitable wet gear and a change of socks for when back at the tents later..suitably "covered in Mud" :laugh: :laugh:

Hi all..

Well we made it round without incident apart from a few "hounorable dismounts" due to the sticky plain mud and shrapenel in front sprockets...

All I can say is thanks to those who came out in the rain and made it a great day with the usual laughter and pranks.."Craig" soon to be known as Ducky because he loves water, nice to meet you all and I would like to verify the 3 guys on road tyres want some BBRR stickers top marks for staying upright with zero grip..

Pics to follow this week unless Old boots start another thread..

see some of you again for the novice meet out..not that you are..

Sorry I missed this guys – hope you all had a good ride on the plain and I'll catch you all another time.
In June this year I undertook the whole Nature Rally in one trip, in aid of Riders for Health
