Not been Green Laning long(as most will know on here),got my bike last December,been on a couple of rides,went to the local TRF monthly meeting at the Joiners arms in Quarndon last Thursday(1st Thursday of the month @ 8 pm),and took my O/S map with me,and a very kind chap(Rob) filled in lots of local Green Lanes for me,thanks for that,much appreciated
Well,my Son(Ryan) has also recentley aquired a Aprilia RX125,we decided to give it a go on our own today,set off at 09.30,and got back at 14.00
Fuel first,and as i have a "hydration backpack" i was ok,my son doesnt,so he (well i)bought a bottle of juice for the morning,but we had nowhere to carry it.........well it fit in the airbox of my XR400


lots of lanes around Matlock,great fun,sun was shining,ground was slightly wet from rain through the night






Think the Ramblers had heard i was doing this lane,seamt to have been ready for me to arrive


Some great lanes,some great views












All in,a great day,a great way to spend Fatehr and Son time too

Shoulda give me a prod ya git, looked like a great day for it!

tbh i thought about it at about 10.30,unfortunately we were the othe rside Matlock in a wood at the time

There will be plenty more Alex,as i posted,i now have a map with lots of Green Lanes highlighted on it

Looks like you had an awesome time Jon and it's good to spend some quality farther and son time. Nice one

Look's brilliant Jon , my advice to you though is give Dave & Martin a shout & if they won't go out with you & show you around i'm sure they'll be able to show you some great routes as i've done some cracking trails with them in the past .

Last minute ride with the lad again this afternoon(sorry Alex,a late text off him and away we went,very short notice)










Some more new(to us) lanes,as you can see some were very deep in mud n water,fuckin great fun

Lovin it

Nice one Jon

Absolutely perfect weather. I've only done this once, but I have never had so much fun on a bike in the rain.

hows the little aprilia holding out ?

Alright mate tbh,could do with a bit more power/torque,but for a 125,its doing well
