Hi everyone, thanks as always for your lovely comments. I'm just letting you all know, that nobody has guessed the bike at all yet 😂 and when I said "it's not a KTM" that means not even Ktm group, so sorry to disappoint, it's not a norden or a 701... I'm saying this now, and I may not even sell the T7. I have had literally 👌 interest. Nothing. So it may not even happen at all. We'll see. I'll give it another week then she's going on ebay. Much love everyone, thanks again 😘

Like you Lew I like to kick my bike around when the times right and have some fun. I'm afraid I have to agree with a few comments made about speed and pedestrians. It's amazing what can be flicked up from the back wheel of an adventure bike or enduro bike on a gravel road at 20mph without realising. We all have a duty of care and I always slow down to walking pace on the trails where people and animals are in close proximity. Engaging with the walkers and others users for a minute or so is called empathising with the enemy as it gives them nothing to complain about be it public road, national speed limit or otherwise. Some of them can be very helpful and give us info about the lane ahead. That guy with the dog really is the enemy now no doubt about it. Austin Vince has written an article in this months TRF Trail magazine talking about empathising with the enemy. He has a valid point. Don't forget you have a duty of care to yourself as well. That's crash you had could have been your last one. Thankfully you were alright and finished the weekend. Sorry to have a bit of a downer but on the other hand I do like the sound of the T7 on the chatttt. Keep the wheels turning.

Trails are national speed limit unless stipulated otherwise. I'm kind and considerate to other trail users, I stop for horses, I say hello and thank you to everybody. I ride to the conditions and to how far I can see. I've never put any other trail user at risk. I'm a safe and competent rider, not a yob. If nobody is around I'll go as fast as I like, it's not bothering anybody, if there are people/dogs/horses ofcourse I'll ride slower. I'm not the type of rider who gets trails closed, I'm respectful of them.
