I’m looking into booking an off road experience day with a mate, and would love to hear your recommendations and experiences. I used to race motocross as a kid, however I’ve not ridden a bike for 20 years, and really fancy a bit of light enduro and motocross on a track. I don’t have a bike, or any gear. I also live in the South West, so would like to limit travel to within a few hours. Even with this it could be combined with an over night stay to help the legs afterwards...

Thanks in advance for any input ; )

Pretty sure it's a Dave Thorpe centre they have opened in Exeter.

They do Africa Twin riding there but I am sure the leaflet I had said they have CRF250's as well.

I'll try and find the leaflet I got from the bike show and will post up if you are interested.

Maybe a bit far to travel, but I did this a couple of years back - excellent outfit:

Top people - their day is much more geared to getting round an enduro as opposed to "a day of green lanes"

No idea on gasgas or Husqavana.

They are all similar - they let you on different bikes and have a play.

It comes down to location, price, added costs (gear rental), and what brand.

I've done Yamaha and KTM north wales - very enjoyable.
