    Small world IcarusGreen, I did the Natter Jack which is held down on the exercise & range area of Longmoor camp on one of those heaps, 300 miles over 2 days, I walked like John Wayne for a few days afterwards :eek:

    We had 4 bikes and 3 riders including me, the other 2 both crashed several times and had to strip the fourth bike for spare to keep theirs going which didn't go down to well as we borrowed it from another unit :D

    Honestly wish I had more time to do some MX. I haven't done any for 8 years now and I really miss it.
    Though to be honest I think I would be kinda scared getting back on it. I never had much fear when I was a little younger.

    It's only a baby 125 but surprised me how quick it actually was, a lot different to your road legal ones like dt's
    To be honest it's more than enough for what I use it for and the insurance is only 1p on top of the blade :D
