It's my boy's birthday soon, and he would love a little 50cc scrambler. I've no problem with that, but, I really have no idea where he could legally ride it.

What sort of places should I be looking for, somewhere where he can just belt about for a bit that isn't going cost a small fortune to use?

I don't any farmers btw, or anyone with a bit of private land, or what the score is with 'public land' anymore.

Cheers! Thumbs Up

Gingers FTW. Thumbs Up

I know it sounds a bit weird but this really needs to be in the off road and supermoto section.

Gingers looks nasty in those pics, but its really nice, and has a small oval specifically for kids and people like me who are crap at offroading. Info is in that thread. I've been there a few times and its really good, especially for kids. I think it costs a tenner for the day's riding, but might be cheaper for a child...

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

^ Thats the kind of attitude is what i felt like,
till by chance one day we asked the farmer, and he had no issues, with it at all, actually welcomed us onto his land.
No harm in trying

How old is your son? Has he ridden before?

TBH I don't think Gingers will be ideal. The oval would be perfect if it wasn't for the full size bikes tearing round it. Sure they would easily get round your son but it would be intimidating for him if he is young and new to bikes.

It will do but I think your best bet is your plan of finding a nice private field you can use.

Hammers,

I had the same problem, Just wanted to ride up and down a field after i did some work to my bike to check it was all ok - I ended up asking a police man while i was a Tesco and he told me about some wasteland only a couple of miles away that would be ok because it was out of the way and nobody complains.

Best thing to do is ask a local cop.

You could always try looking up the local moto-x club? Some allow kids to join some don't, if not they may be able to suggest somewhere good to go?
