New addition to the family!

I've always fancied doing some off road riding, so having just turned 60 it's kinda now or never I've sold my Honda Superdream and Bantam, joined a local Enduro club and bought a KTM 300EXC off one of the members.

I'm entered into a practice event on Sunday, an 8 mile course through mud, open terrain and woods with the objective of surviving a single lap without needing to call the body armour into action. Wife thinks I'm mad...........

 

Nice one , spent a few years doing enduros on an XR250/305 in the `80/90`s - great fun , you`ll love it .

Top tip is don`t get stuck and exhaust yourself digging out the bike , trust me ...

 

Nice. The front tyres on KTMs last forever as well, as they are usually in the air.

And why not! Go for it, you daft bugger?



PS I bet you're gonna be proper sore when you're done with the 8 miles

 

Luckily I've got plenty of natural padding in the right areas

 

Nice. But wear body armour.

 

Good advice, I've got a full set of the stuff

 

Use to do a bit of enduro Green laneing you’re love it but don’t expect to be able to walk the next day.
