How about posting up or pointing to a beginners guide to Enduros or all the off road classes?

Nice KTM Grant, looks like great fun. I would say give us a go but I don't reach the floor on them.

Which is why I have never entertained the fact of getting an offroader.

Actually you'd probably have a blast on one of those medium size 125 machines for teenagers - they're darn quick and as they are so small (and you so lite) you'd be able to throw them around no end.

http://www.suzuki-gb.co.uk/bike/drz125/k8/ The seat height is smaller than the SV ... wait, aren't off road bikes meant to be taller

Yes, but you just lean them to put a foot down. Pick a light one and thats ok to do. And of course you dont put a foot down anyway.

what you do in my case is just fall off when you stop
