elliotsdaddy Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Afternoon all, I have just registered with this fine forum. Fair play there are a lot of helpful topics and people on here. I was wondering if there are any members local to me (Forest Of Dean) that use their bikes locally? Also are there any other shops apart from BVM Moto in Stroud that do trials bike stuff? Ta very muchly. Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyb Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hi, I live in Westbury On Severn and practice most weekends at the quarry up at Birdlip. It is operated by Zona1 and it is located at Nettleton Bottom. It is a very well laid out site with toilets etc and all the guys who go there are very friendly and helpful. We pay £85 per year membership which is a bargain. Please note it is a trials only club and only trials bikes are allowed on site. There is a £15 deposit for the gate key. There is a dealer in Cinderford who can get you most things(Haines) and he is very helpful and friendly. Check out Zona1 website for details.

elliotsdaddy Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hi Chris I'm in Ross ... got a few places local to us both we ride at ... welcome to give me a shout if you ever want someone to ride with. Cheers I may be wrong but I believe I emailed you via eBay about a Sherco you had sold. Is the world really that small? Thanks for the invite, It would be great to be able to ride with someone. I would like to take you up on that once the falling off is down to a minimum. Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a trial at Monmouth this wkend. Well well well the wonders of the internet. Yes the falling off thing I suppose is part of the fun while learning. I know the more experienced riders still have 'offs' now and then which on one hand makes me feel a bit better about the likelyhood of face planting, but on the other hand makes me think that if they still come off what chance do I have......but I suppose when it's just for a laugh there isn't much to worry about.

If you are coming from Monmouth on the dual carriage way towards Ross, then it is the woods on the left about a mile or two from the r/about (just past the welcome to England sign) There is a lay by ... the gate is at the back of the lay by .... if you go under the bridge at the top of the hill, you have gone too far. 10.30 start.
