Hi folks - I just joined and am looking forward to my first Club Night ride tomorrow on my 1974 Honda MT250 Elsinore. I've been riding it at the Wild Rose MX track and now want to try some trail riding. Can't wait!

Wow! You're all kinds of ballsy. I'm sad I can't be there tomorrow, I'd love to see you in action.

I'm just a beginner, I was very glad to see there was a "Relaxed" riding group!

Thats awesome, it will make my 85 Yam look positively futuristic. Be prepared for the puzzled looks if its not orange :thumbsup:

Well, that was a lot more difficult than I expected! I struggled and the bike struggled but we made it...

Thanks for the help guys!
