Trail Riding – it’s brilliant!

Me and my Polish mate, Irek, somewhere on an old roman road somewhere in Kent.

I’ve been trail riding on motorbikes for, let me see, ah, over 35 years, mostly in Kent, but also in Surrey, Sussex, Wiltshire, Devon, Derbyshire, Wales, France, Turkey and South Africa. My first wife, Anne, a very keen motorcyclist, first got a trail bike and encouraged me to have a go, first off in Cobham woods just off the A2.

Well, that was it, I was hooked! Then came a bit of messing around a quarry near Barham with the Eagles motorcycle club, organising a semi-formal club Enduro on my mate’s farm in Aylesford, and starting up the Kent TRF with my good mate, Steve Neville.

Trail bikes have been DT400MX, KDX175A, YZ125K, KDX200F and a KTM250EXC (really a 350!). Still have the last two.
