Hi
I have just come back from Great South of England-shire. I jumped on my bike to visit a mate who introduced me to the deepest country in his Discovery with winch, rock sliders, high jacks, ground spikes etc etc.
I didn't realise there was such fun to be had riding round the country side.
I'd gone down on my bike to save fuel OK it only took a few arse numbing hours but when I arrived I was p*** wet through cold and very numb.
I'd used about the same in mpg as I would have done travelling in the Surf." bikes drink fuel on motorways"
The surf would have taken me 3 times as long but I'd have been dry could have slept in the back and would have something to play with on the dirt tracks while I was down there with my mate.
The bikes speedo broke and battery was knacked so It sat in his drive all week till I could get the parts.
I think at this time of year I will leave the bike in the garage from now on and do my visiting by Surf. I had no Idea that you could travel from one side of deepest England-shire to the other by way of farm tracks from field to field. Marvelous.
Both bike and Surf have there places but I am seeing another side to this off roading thanks jon for a brilliant week.
Cheers JB
