Imonster, very, very green to the offroad thang - used to ride offroad when I was a kid, but prior to last November I hadn't ridden offroad in nearly twenty years.

Went out on a borrowed Serow - loved it. Went out again on the borrowed Serow in December - loved it again.

Sold the "play" road bike and bought a TTR250 on an M plate last month instead

Located in East Sussex (Brighton) - always happy to go out riding with others if there's anybody on here from Sussex/Surrey?

Remember I'm still learning though

I have an XR400R, little experience/ability, no trailer and am in north Cambridgeshire.

I might sell the mo-fo as I hardly ever use it (no-one to go riding with ).

Lying outrageously on the internet since 2002.

As JB said.
You will meet up with Animal who lanes in Cambs and has lost his lane buddy (me) to the other end of the country. YKIMS.

And if you can get to Haddenham area on sat morning I'm sure he won't mind taking you in the van to the start point.

Excuse the n00b question here....

My machine doesn't seem appear to hold a whole lot of fuel. Now, I could trailer it up but that would mean leaving my car and trailer near Thetford, which has got to be mad? But it would save me running to Thetford on mx tyres. Any suggestions for the n00b?

It should hold plenty to get to Mildenhall mate, and there is a garage right next to the meet point.
