OFF ROAD DAY - Sounding you guys out
As Kwacky suggested here is a new thread to sound you guys out on a possible off road experience day. I did a taster session this week and it was a great deal of fun, two days later I am really feeling it in my legs lol
Duke mentioned a day down in Wales, there seems to be a number around the country doing this kind of thing, I was looking through the goodie bag I was given from the day, the one that stands out to me is the Dave Thorpe Off road center in South Wales looks pretty good.
The Enduro day looks pretty good, an hour doing MX in the morning, the rest of the day on Enduros....if your interested or have other suggestions put it down here. This one cost £209 for the day, kit is included, plus some may need a B&B for the night before or after possibly? Not cheep, but something different, I am still gutted I had to miss out on our slapper's day out doing speed way...
Just starting the thread off, so your feed back is welcome.

The Mick Extance Kawasaki day sounds good too. In fact you can choose from a number of different types of day here.

Re: OFF ROAD DAY - Sounding you guys out
I think looking at Mick's web page we need to work out if we want to do a mix of full on MX and Enduro or just enduro?
Personally I would like to experience it all, rather than just the one discipline.

Rickster some of us have discussed doing the speedway day again. Its great fun and a good way of learning to feel the bike slide.

We'll be doing the speedway again, it was a top day.
I can't commit myself at present to an off road day, but I do want to do one.
