Stevie Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Hi guys, I want to start going to some different places other than riding in my local town or village, but i have the trouble of not being able to drive and my mum or dad definately won't drive me anywhere and i don't know anyone who rides trials that would give me a lift. Unless you drive how do you get about? Do they let you on buses/trains with your bike? Stevie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispyboy Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 bike Alot of people use the trains to get to places. Most buses wont let you on only some but its rare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted January 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Train sounds ok but if i'm on my own, don't wanna get raped. Whats prices like on trains, never really used them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Clark Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Prices aren't bad, and you won't get raped either. If you book ahead you can save loads too, I can travel from Leeds to Colchester for £12 if I book it early enough, on the day would cost over £100.

DannyBazz (: Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Train everywhere. If it's local I get a lift though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Prodigy Trials. Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Stevie as I have said before if you ever wan't to ride anywhere just tell me and I can get my dad to take us. Also you could ask Arriva buses or Midland classic if you could take your bike with you in a bus.

Rusevelt Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Are you sure that you've scouted around all the best spot within your local area? Your more likely to find unique and challenging spots just casually riding your bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I used to train everywhere before I could drive. I mean at 15-16 I was going to London rides on my own which was like a 50min train no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
