Newbie from South Devon

Post by Rayzo82 »

Hello All, Newbie from near Newton Abbot here finally after trying to get verified for months.

Currently riding a Tiger 900 Rally Pro, pictured below after its first off road session at the ABR festival 2022. (What an event!!) Not an ideal bike to test off road for your first time but i enjoyed eating dirt :D

I have only been a rider for a few years and got the adventure bike bug as soon as i got my hands on a 1200 explorer and did a road trip with the better half around wales.
Be keen to meet with like minded riders to try out some of the local green lanes Devon has to offer.

Welcome from Kingsteignton, we now normally ride smaller enduro bikes on the local green lanes but occasionally still use the bigger bikes.
There are plenty of easy enough lanes to get stuck into locally but there are also some very tricky ones for the bigger bikes, might be worth you popping along to The Dolphin in Bovey Tracey second Tuesday of the month as the TRF have a meeting in the upstairs conference room from 8pm.

My understanding is that the Devon TRF meeting will not be at the Dolphin in Bovey in January as the pup is closing for a spruce up. When I know where the January one is going to be I will post on here
I am not that far away in East Devon
