I was with the first TRF ride last year. The planning took over ten years I was told. We were given the rules about speed and all going in the same direction at the beginning of the ride.
All was well until one chap turned around and headed back the way he came - result, a head-on, high speed collision with a rider coming the other way.
Air ambulance, ambulance, police and doctor all at the scene. This sort of thing will make the Forestry Commission hesitant.
It doesn't help the cause mentioning how fast one can go on the forest trails.
Thats the details I was thinking of! thanks
Mods (and no offence to the man above - but for the sake of the amount of search engine hits this forum gets and standing a chance of hosting anything) it might be an idea to tweak that post!![]()
