Well done. I was impressed with every clean I saw. There weren't many that I saw.

The ford was removed from the TET in 2020 because of the claims about it being private. What may be more legal is across the bridge and behind the houses by the graveyard. Check out www,findmystreet and where the Google Streetview car goes. Powys online definitive map does not show across the footbridge as a public right of way so its not a footpath. It could well be an unclassified county road.

Lots of guys (and gals) in South Wales TRF have larger bikes some are lucky and have both. Lots of rides put on for bigger bikes too. I'm over the other side of Mynydd Maen.

Not that I'm aware off. It wasn't my ride I was just tail man. Best thing is to join the TRF (Trail Riders Fellowship) loads of benefits in doing so. You can then join your local group and find out routes that way. South Wales TRF does have routes available on its FB page but you need to be a TRF member to gain access.

@@kelvinvarney1906 I’m a trf member just not in south wales. I’ll see if I can join that group.

Cheapest bicycle ones on ebay.

Yes they are all known confirmed legal vehicular green roads except one. That one I am still waiting on a reply from the council to confirm its status as it was only discovered recently. Some as you can see are dead ends so folk tend not to use them. The ride started in Risca and went over to Tonyrefail and back to Risca.

Thats impressive Ron very impressive. Hope Graeme C and Mike F don't blow your candles out

@@kelvinvarney1906 guess I'll have to last till then though,last run I did 100 mileson 29th December last year.

They were

Practice then practice some more! Try using the throttle and clutch to assist your balance. Sometimes slightly slowing down or speeding up can aid balance. Practice the same rut several times that way you know whats coming. Standing up can give you more ability to move the bike around to maintain balance. Don't look too far ahead or too close to the front wheel. There is an optimum distance based on speed. Avoid being distracted, concentrate but don't tense up.

TOES IN at all times and ride on the balls of your feet this pushes knees into tank try to keep arms relaxed and stand as much as possible LOOK at the end of the rut, in a corner look at the end or the direction you desire to go, NEVER trace your front wheel with your eyes as that is why balance fails and thus front wheel climbs - you can also steer into the side of a rut to counter balance your weight, sounds weird but counter steering works this way 🙂

The CCM is a 644, DR650 based engine. I didn't have the CCM at the time only the Xtrainer. That was nearly six years ago. I still have the Xtrainer but its set up for long distance trials (gearing, tyres etc) plus I don't mind putting the miles on the CCM. Its also better on tarmac, if 50% heavier when it comes to the trails. I took the same route in the gulley just kept the momentum on as one of the others did on an Xtrainer in the vid. There really only was one line.

It depends where you are in the UK. Although wherever you are the best thing you can do is join the TRF. They have 45 regional groups and all of them organise rides. Some more than others. This is the website to find out about them and join. Scroll down to see all. www.trf.org.uk/join/

Don't know what you mean 🤔

@@kelvinvarney1906 you show the others struggling but don't always seem to keep the camera rolling when you go through. I think that I'd struggle on them but it's good to watch better riders technique.

Ah right. I caught the others on my phone camera. Often when you film it from your point of view it doesn't look anything like as difficult as the camera flattens the view. Search KZbin for Wiltshire Byways and then search in his list of vids for Goldenhill Road. There are two vids riding it both ways.

Mine is a 644 with the Suzuki DR650 based engine actually out of an XF650 Freewind Suzuki 644cc. The earlier 604 had the belt driven Rotax engine. CCM is Clews Competition Motorcycles. They did make a 404 that had the Suzuki DRZ engine.

they were very popular back in the day -=- they also did extremely well when supermoto became fashionable, the firm is gone now, not sure if KTM bought the rights or not

@@ogasi1798 They aren't gone, the Clews family bought the company back from whoever owned it something like 10 years ago and they are still making bikes today.

These are South East Monmouth shire. Some near Shirenewton some East of Usk and some near Tintern.

@@kelvinvarney1906 be good to try these

I tend to lead a lot of rides so often there are no bikes in front to film. I like to try different angles sometimes.

He had ridden with Moto Junkies several weeks before and is a road rider. I think he was pleased too.

Yes standing is good if you've got the energy and strong knees 🤪

First glance looks like you’ve more than West Sussex. But then you have so many with TROs.

@@kelvinvarney1906 West Sussex has mainly UCRs. The tros are mostly 4wd.

The ride was posted on SWTRF Facebook before hand and a summary with this vid after.

No Herefordshire and South Wales TRF. Apologies for the late reply!
