Havent been out and about here lately as I have other things on but I had the opportunity to go to a place called Ubley Drove with the XRV forum, not many turned up that was expected but its only about 15 mins past Bristol Airport and is a great place to try differant things and makes a nice change to the normal trail riding. It is a place that holds full enduros and hare and hounds so was good to go on a track environment and made me realise, how unfit I am and what a bike can do and how scarey some even small jumps can be if you get it wrong. There are others planned and we give about £10 each to the farmer as a thank you, I would strongly recomend signing up on XRV and having a blast
