stpauls Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 We are supposed to be staying in/at home, due to the corona virus. The ACU is advising everyone not to ride at all during this nightmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonboy883 Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Hi john, respect the enforced embargo for a bit at the moment........then, just south of Blandford on the A350 is XHG Tigers ground, Selby Park, and a practice ground near to it. XHG Tigers, Ringwood MCC, Shaftesbury & District and Yeo vale clubs all local to you to compete and learn, and there is Waterside club, many events at Bransgore and Bridport abit further afield! Im in Blandford, similar age to you, private message me when things pick up again and we can ride a few trials together, learning on proper sections. cheers Jon.......

Thanks ! Yes some great advice on those videos , will keep me busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
