    Hi All,

    I'm looking at getting into trail riding with my current bike. Its a GS Adventure with semi off road tyres. I found one or two little forest service roads around Wicklow but nothing too long.

    Does anyone have any suggestions ? particularly forest trails ?

    I spent my teenage years riding offroad on trails and woodland and here in ireland I'd rather a smaller bike for forest trails and the like, a smaller bike is easier to handle and pick up when you fall and trust me you will fall or else it's all pointless ;)

    Charley and Ewan wannabe :p

    They had an entire crew with them to pick their bikes up, dust C + E off, fix up their makeup and make them ready for the next staged shot...

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.

    I see trail bikes in the Curragh and a fella on a GS sometimes. Handy thing is theres nothing to crash into bar a few furze bushes and sheep. There's plenty of trails to suit different skill levels and it's huge. You can go straight from the road to a trail. Just the MPs might tell you to get out but ive never seen them challenge anyone on a bike before.
