The bikes currently on fleet are:
A road based adventure day, with optional gentle green lane along the way. A true try before you buy experience...

ROYAL ENFIELD HIMALAYAN
POWER: 24.5bhp
WEIGHT: 193- kilos
SEAT HEIGHT: 800mm
FUEL TANK: 15-litres
PRICE NEW: £4200
​
The Himalayan has been the surprise hit of the small adventure bike market, proving more capable than many could have predicted. A torquey long stroke motor and low seat height makes it the ideal novice adventure machine. Some will love it, some might not. Chance for you to make your own mind up.
​
​

KTM 390 ADVENTURE
POWER: 43bhp
WEIGHT: 158 kilos
SEAT HEIGHT: 855mm
FUEL TANK: 14.5-litres
PRICE NEW: £5499
​
The KTM is the newest bike in the lineup, launched in 2020 after many years of build up. It uses the same single cyclinder 43bhp engine as in the 390 Duke and benefits from having the most power and joint lowest weight alongside the Honda. A real firecracker on the road.
​
​

BMW G 310 GS (Euro 5)
POWER: 34bhp
WEIGHT: 170 kilos
SEAT HEIGHT: 835mm
FUEL TANK: 11.5-litres
PRICE NEW: £5435
​
The 310 GS takes the look and attitude of its 1200cc big brother and shrinks it down to a more manageable package. Designed to blend road and and off road capabilities, this could be the consummate all rounder and challenge the Himalayan for travel bike of choice. Which will you prefer?
​

HONDA CRF 300 RALLY
POWER: 26bhp
WEIGHT: 153 kilos
SEAT HEIGHT: 885mm
FUEL TANK: 12.8-litres
PRICE NEW: £6099
​
The CRF300 Rally is also new for 2021 and offers a chance to ride the latest trail bike from Honda. Changes to the CRF 250 are mainly felt in the engine, with a stronger mid-range and improved gear ratios. Riding the 300 back to back with the 250 is a great way of measuring the change, or realising that you're happy sticking with the old one.​

GROUP RIDE DATES
These are open to anyone with a maximum number of five riders. Meet at 9.00 am, finish around 5.00pm.
​
See booking calendar below for dates and to make a booking.
​
COST: Cost of a group ride day is £165 per rider.
​
This is a great chance to ride the bikes with other riders and share thoughts and opinions as we go. You'll get a good chance to try all of the bikes. The pace is manageable and we ride as a group. The roads are mainly B roads along the coast and over the moors, with some flowing A roads to assess the bikes at speed. Some of it is tight and twisty and there can be patches of gravel or grass on the road. We make a stop for coffee mid morning and later for lunch. People who have benefited from this day are those looking to downsize from bigger machines, or those who know they want one of the bikes and just need some time in the saddle to see which suits them best. Some just come for the nice day out riding.
​
​

​
​
That might sound ominous but other than a few gentle topples these are a relaxed, gentle paced days designed to showcase the best of the landscape, the bikes and also show that green laning isn't as intimidating as you might have thought.
