Been on a Yamaha MX experience day today, loads of fun had, but I'm rubbish!

Pics....................

Nice pics.

Where do they run that then? How much? Please tell us about your day big fella.

This one was at golding barn in West Sussex.....VERY hard chalk and clay soil in a natural bowl in the south downs. It was a yamaha off road experience day. I've also done similar at Wildtracks up near newmarket, with Geoff Mayes.

Of the two I'd recommend Geoff Mayes more at He's great!

The yamaha guys were ok, bit full of themselves and I found the fella who ran it (Barry something) a bit of a twat. Having said that you can ignore him and just enjoy yourself! They can be found at



As far as your road riding is concerned a bit of MX is definitely good for it, teaches you how to react when your bike gets out of shape and it's generally a fairly painless environment to crash in!

Maybe we could have a group dayout on one.

Toby, as a big lad you can have the job of picking me up all day!

I had to pick myself up twice! No lasting damage done though, bit of missing skin is all

Dont get Toby picking up men again.

We only just got him to stop doing that
