Let the KTM have a go :laugh:


I'll be wanting to lead 8 riders (any more and it gets a bit slow going). All big bikes (over 600cc), suitable rubber etc etc. Will scout the area first but best plan on unknown trails so they could be anything. We will give them a go!

Since this is my back garden I probably ought to join you but you always pick the dates of the rallies ;). So I can't. Could give you some routes though, haven't checked them all, but you can let me know what they're like.
