Looks a good track , everytime there is an event on there they say the bikey boys are here soon are you coming to ride , im allways at the other end of the country working though , it would be good to go down on a weekend ... Trail ride one day and hire the track the other day for a select few riders , if thats possible

It's fairly straightforward to get bikes registered. Order a V55 (5) form from the DVLA website and tick the boxes to register it under the trials and enduro scheme. If the bike doesn't have a chassis number, the DVLA can assign one, which you have to stamp into the frame (or get it done at a garage - stamping tubes is a bit tricky) and it will probably get a 'Q' plate. If you have a chassis number, you should get an age related plate. The only weird bit is that you have to get the bike insured on a chassis number, mot'd and taxed before they will issue a registration plate, but that's bureaucrat logic

I don't think it would be allowed because of planning permission and the locals. He's probably only allowed 3-4 races per year between MX and enduro.

I tore mine years ago , can you straighten your leg , i couldnt for ages , was supposed to go back for an op as i damaged it twice ... The second time tearing the cartlidge , i never had it done though as they told me id be off work for 6 months .
My knee twitches all the time now , think its my bodys way of keeping the muscle built up to compensate , it sometimes sort of jumps out of the socket doing mx and that brings tears to the eyes but its been ok for quite a while now

I know Rob, big ole boy!

Where do you all live? I'm in Harleston, Norfolk.

There are two cracking Enduros next month Thetford using the Muntjack track and TBEC are doing Rendlesham. Both will be about a 12 mile lap. Thetford fast and open Rendlesham tighter than a mouses ear.
