I havent been out on 2 wheels for sometime but lately found a weekend to take in some trails in wales. It got a bit wet but we still took in some great scenery around Rhayder including some awesome river crossings and hill climbs. Have put them on Flickr if you want to check out all the set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sail-croatia/sets/72157623677264220/show/

or - Some of my favourites... :D

Awesome mate, just got into the dirty stuff myself, still finding my feet as it were.
Got soaked myself last week going through a deepish ford, good fun though.

Nice one Phil!

If you ever get to Rhayder to ride - The trail/river crossing on the pics above was locally known as the puddles (Welsh for you) - it was 7 crossing points of the same river on that particular trail.

Water at that crossing was just above air-filter height so if you stop you were stuffed. The Suzuki and rider went over in the river (rider was fully submersed :lol:). We tipped the bike on end to get any water out of the exhaust, draining carbs, wringed out the air-filter and amazingly she fired up again. Suzuki for you!
