Scouse appears to know a few trails around there for us to try out. I know a couple around Bosworth but they would be suited for more experienced riders.

I'd be up for a local meet. ...and I'm thinking of going to the rally after work on Friday.

Is anyone else here from Nottingham way?

I'm depressed now. Having been on the hunt for a BMW1100GS to buy I have missed two and now it looks increasingly like I won't be able to make the Midlands Rally :( Sadly my mini-me bike is not suited for two-up further than local short trips.

Thanks for posting the Coalville loop vid though! :)
