Default where i can ride motocross without hasstle?

just before christmas i treated myself to a new toy, a cr250 1999 model. does anybody know where i can ride this without hasstle and ideally without paying. i know of a few places but it gets i bit boring going to the same places all the time. the only downside to having this bike is i seem to be neglegting the scoob.

if anybody knows of any where and could let me know (with maps if possible ) that would be awesome.

There's a place in Cardiff, proper motorcross track that my brother in law going to..just turn up pay for the session and way to go...don't know much more than that other than it must be reasonable or he wouldn't go...

I'm not altogether familier but if you come off the A48 at newport road and stay to the right going over the flyover...you will eventually come across it on the left hand side...

I'll google earth it now and see if I can get more info for you...

we all go threw the forrests in abercarn/cwmcarn and the surrounding area more enduro riding than motorcross never have any problems, tag along 3-4 hrs riding most sundays if we are not racing.

the place is CWM FARM rob i've not got a number handy but if you drive up the main road going through Heolgerrig the turning is on your lefti t's quite a way up i think it's not far from the six bells pub.
you will have to open a gate at the entrance and drive for about a mile on a gravel road.
i used to ride there a lot back in the day but they have sadly left me now
but i reminis now and again ,i went to Malory park for the 500GP last year

The track is pretty technical for a novice and more than enough for AMCA expert riders so you want be disappointed for a fiver
