Have I missed something here? OP asks about pros/cons of a Himalayan and shortly after buys an FJ13...

I'll just say that I'm enjoying bike, only 6 months and 2000 miles in.

The guy who runs Andy's Workshop Services (Andy!) has a GN250 converted to green lane use, a very nice looking bike, think he's also changed the forks, possibly using YZ forks.

I...

Ha, of course Chris

I'll try and find out from the TRF, there are some really excellent UCRs about, very clever I think on the part of the county council as effectively the green lanes are hidden in plain sight.

Anyone here from Dorset able to confirm that the Purbeck Ridgeway route is legitimate? I've looked at the definative map online and checked against Google maps (where it does not appear as a road), but according to the def map it's a legitimate green lane to ride. It's that shown in light blue, BOAT...

I've returned to the ABR forum after a while away, seems much quieter here than the 'old days' when the forum first started, have people gone elsewhere or just post less?
