Been there. Done that. That's the White Helmets application course. I did it in 1980. The course was held in Catterick. We all had numbers instead of names. We rode around on (barely working) BSA B40's. The tyres were almost bald! There was a lot of riding around on Gandale Moor. Yes, I remember that hill (We all had to go up it and back down again). Although I passed the course. I wasn't selected for the team.

Interesting ... i think bike in videos are Yamaha DTs



@Barry_Q
B40 will be bit heavy, it will do lot of damage if it fell on your legs etc. I hope didn't fell too many times.

Every last one of us fell over at some point (More often than not, more than once). There were no injuries. Being the Army. The first thing you did was to recover the bike and get straight back on. The Staff rode fully equipped B40's. There even a pair of Triumph TRW's in the shed. Sadly, they're all long gone now.

the 2 strokes are Bombardier Can Am's - 250's I think

Thanks .. like the bike ..
