Hi Bongo, Devon is one of the counties with the most lanes that can be ridden legally. If you put a post on the Devon TRF forum you will find loads of guys to take you out. I am in The Cornwall TRF and lead rides every other weekend, if you want to have a go at the slippery slate climbs we have down here let me know and I will take you out. That goes for anybody on the forum,you are welcome to come down as a group, I can sort out a nearby campsite and you can make a weekend of it.

Great lanes and great pasties.

+1. ;) Take him up "Pink Panther" :lol: :lol:
East Devon is Trail biking heaven, Stop off at Slapton Sands as well and have a look at the Sherman Tank, which acts as a memorial to the many hundreds of American service men that were on an exercise that went badly wrong, whilst practising for the D day landings.
There's nearly a weeks good riding in the area without duplicating many lanes.
