Been lurking here for a while. Must say that I am very impressed by some of the epic adventures other people seem to do ("A Pillion's View of the World etc"). I doubt I shall be tackling enything like that scale of trip but I do very much enjoy pootling around the minor roads and tracks of North Yorkshire.
Like some others I have "upgraded" from leg powered to engine powered - in my case a KLX250S (half pint motor
). I still do lots of MTBing to keep fit and because it's much more accessible than trail riding. I like to think I ride the MTB like a teenager, however I defintely ride the KLX like a grandad. One thing I have noticed is that motorcyclists get the "evil glare" from walkers etc. even more than MTBers!I did an introductory ride with the W Yorks TRF last year, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Must admit I did not join though, because I enjoy riding and exploring at my own pace.
I am planning a C2C mini-adventure in a few weeks time and I am hoping to get some suggestions for routes.
Cheers,
Dave
