Hi everyone....

Ive not ridden properly since 2006. Had a few bikes since then and not had one for about 2 years!! IE had a few montesas but never did a trail since 2006!!! Now I have the bug again to do events, not just to mess about!!

Was thinking a gas gas or a sherco? As I used to always have the bomb proof montesa 315r as they always seemed ride ok, and never had a problem with them!! Now I am 32 years old and not quite as fit as I was and a basic clubmans level....Was wondering if all of you up to date people could help me decide what bike i should get? I was thinking a 200 gas gas or sherco to get back into it, as ive heard some people prefer the 200 as they are more easy to ride? Even heard the odd intermediate go for 200 instead of the 250s etc But thats what i remember back between 1998 to 2002 as i was quite a good rider back then, being as i was in very early 20. So now I am totally out of touch with everything....So if anyone has any advice they can give me, ie gas gas sherco, 200 or 250? Dont mind price, as long as its within reason, was thinking £1200 to £1500 just want the correct bike to start again.

Any advice would be great as I really want to get involved properly this time and enter a trial at least twice a month!!!

Only 200 out there would be a Beta, sweet bike!!!! , otherwise go for 250 of choice.

That money may get you a newer 315! Still a good solid bike if well kept!

Thanks!!! Don't seem to be much activity on this site? Am I using the correct site for UK? Ye ive heard loads about the 200 beta being ace!! I think i will get whatever comes along just to get bk into it.....The new Ossa looks nice? Anyone know much about how it rides or what it compares to??
