Hi all
I am working in Cardiff for the next year or so, and am looking forward to getting some off road action around this area. I am a bit of a beginner off road, but have had road bikes for the past 35 years. Think I have finally kicked the road habit due to speed cameras, slower reaction times and too much traffic. Bike is a overbored 1999 XR250R (280cc) Bit ancient I guess, but It seemed capable enough last year when I took it up the mountains in Co Kerry, Ireland. Anyway, hope to meet up sometime, unfortunately I am currently a weekend warrior.

Cheers

Gary
