Default Off Road Training, Catterick:

Caught some of a feature on Calendar re off road bike training for kids. Apparently it is to stop them riding illegally on Mini-moto's etc. Are you involved Richie? Can you get us a go? Bikes just about right size for me

I'll have a look into this, but please can you give me more details ... as when the prog was screened...

Will have a chat to the training area manager...

were they on Army Quad bikes or there own as insurance might play a big part in this ?

You aren't wrong - They way things are now, with bloody insurance & how people don't wanna get sued - Its mental...

The organisation that had to go into the Army lads doing up our school kids MX track was massive (all done by me I hasten to add )

I think it was on Monday on BBC Look North, Tynside. Apparently there is a problem with youths useing mini-motos etc. Causing a nuisance. They have set up a programme of giving youngsters training off road and the army are running it. One of the guys they interviewed had a red beret on? They had some young schoogirls riding the bikes. Presumably they must be useing MOD land? It was in a wood.
