F'ing bolt!
I know at least one of my +2 aint coming as he is doing an enduro instead, so there is definately one space for grabs.

Thanks for the offer steve!
I'll wait and see how the day (and route) pans out.
update.
Right, i've just checked with the range office on salisbury plain. There is live firing on this weekend, though it should be safe after 3.00pm. What i suggest is that we meet at 9.30for a 10am start, have a leisurely run to win green and back, by which time the plain should open. I don't think we will get as far as berkshire, but it should still be a good day out. Hope everyone is ok with this.

Win green is here:

It's mostly green lanes
There will be some bits of road work involved, but nothing that should be more than about 10 minutes. just look on it as mobile rest periods

Great ride today Nathan. Some lanes I remember from previous runs and a lot of new ones!
Shame GrinningGS left early, the afternoon lanes were much better for the bigger bikes!

GrinningGser had a fab time on those early few lanes and a superb sunny day's riding it was too.
The mud defeated me on the big panzer today and I must thank Pinkytiff et all for three pickups and one pull out of a bush
I had one gallon, say 55 miles in the tank and today learned that a fall to the right leaves the fuel pump with no fuel. We couldn't start the bike, no matter how long we waited, till we shlossed it around to the left. Never stop learning .
Yes I'm sure that the later trails were easier but I didn't want to hinder those of you on real offroaders and four crashes is enough for one day..
Thanks for the fun Nathan

Paul,
i'm surprised you stuck with it as long as you did- i think everyone was finding the going a little tricky, and that was on more appropriate trail tools.
The rainfall in the early hours of this morning made the trails very slick, and they had started to dry out by lunchtime.
We made reasonable progress across to Wingreen and Compton airfield for a spot of lunch- which is a cracking spot, and we were blessed with some great weather, as well as a redbull stunt plane for the entertainment.
After lunch we lost mark. his g450X had picked up a puncture, but the tubeless system in his back wheel made retro fitting a tube ineffective- i hope you managed to get picked up ok?
We pressed on back towards salisbury, and passed entrants on a LDT for vintage bikes.
On to stapleford to fill up again and shelter from the rain storm. As soon as it finished we headed up to cross the A303 and on towards tilshead.
Running seriously short of time, we headed across the plain to weyhill, where we said goodbye to the 2 Daves and Mike.
From weyhill it was a bit of road work to link a few last trails together before finally getting back to the carpark at about 6.30, clocking up around 135 miles.
Thank you all for the company
