Green Laning

Post by TimO »

Hi all
I went to a meeting yesterday with a farmer, he said follow me so that your bike is hidden away from the road. I said is it muddy, he said no, so I followed :o
I don't know if any of you chaps have been off road on one of these, but the michelin pilot road 2's don't really offer much in the way of grip :lol:

Your pics. remind me of an episode that happend a few years ago.
I had promised my daughter to go for a spin wit her FS-1 she was 13 at the time so we could not go on the public roads. We have a nice trail in the woods near by my house and I tought that this will not be a problem to ride along with her on my Honda VFR 750 :P :P !
There was just two issues 1. I had a terrible hang over :evil:
and 2. that summer it had rained like hell so the dirt road was quite damp :wink:
When we been riding for quite some time we come down a slope and the whole trail was flooded and under neath the warter ther was 20 cm. of really damp mud and of course I got stuck. :oops: I had to wrestle the VFR around in the mud. I almost gave up :cry: My daughter treid to encurage me to go on. Eventually I manage to turn the Honda around. My daughter could not handel the FS-1 very well so I had to ride the moped for 25 meters at the time and then return an pick up the Honda :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: .
We were home vary late that evening :lol: :lol:

The track to my house is 3/4 mile long and in a MUCH worse state than that. 1:4 hill, deep mud and potholes with 3" of water :roll:
Nail it in 2nd gear and get them rooster tails 8) :lol:
