I started this part of the trip from the village of Everleigh on Salisbury Plain and wound a circuitous route around the plain, up to Marlborough and finished somewhere south of Swindon. It was a really fun day with a real mix of trails too. To be fair the endless gravel tracks of Salisbury Plain can get a bit monotonous, but the views are fantastic – you can see for miles and the skies are HUGE. Going up towards Marlborough you get a bit more forestry and the lanes get a bit more technical, and there’s even a few steep climbs too – not to mention one absolute bitch of a rutted lane (you’ll know it when you get there!). Another great day on the UK TET, which continues to pleasantly surprise me. #husqvarna #husqvarna701 #enduro #offroadmotorcycle #transeurotrail #offroad #redbullracing #gopro #goprohero10 #solotravel #motovlog
If you’re going to Salisbury Plain here’s a handy link to check range firing times, they can change at short notice so always check the night before. And don’t worry about accidentally wandering into a live range while you’re there – all the approach tracks will be padlocked, red flags are up during daylight and red lamps are out at night. Filmed with GoPro Hero 10, Hero 5 and edited in Da Vinci Resolve then upscaled to 4K.

There is some lovely trail riding in and around the Salisbury Plains. In my military time, we only spent a weekend there with some overnight exercises for our Senior Rates Leadership training in the RN, so I've spent more time there as a civvy 😀hahaha
I think there is a website you can go on that tells you when the ranges are closed and what sections, well worth the research if travelling from a way away to explore them. Last time I was there the whole of one side was closed, am not sure you should have been on these with the flags up TBH, but not sure on the embarkation area of those flags… but people were walking dogs etc, so I assume they were local and know the rules more than I do 🙂
Them hidden ruts are tough… I was in similar down there a few weeks back on my Aprilia Tuareg 660, had a topple, so hard to get out of them when they are overgrown 😀
Looked an amazing day to play dirtybikes.
Nice vid, subbed 🙂
Hello Frankie , SURPRISING section ! It's the Holidays , blue sky , no rain , no sludge , no fallen trees , wide track , no crossing impossible , these beautifull forests look like a public garden . Verry pleasant to ride with you and your husky . You ride often and do the sections on after other , it's strong !
Hi Frankie, I found your channel yesterday and I have been doing a bit of binge watching of your UK TET series. Bloody brilliant mate, love your style of commentary and style of riding and approach to it. This is something I will do one day when I get the time, Ive ridden Chalk Pit Lane and yes it has some stunning views. Looking forward to catching up with the rest of your videos. Subscribed 👍🏻
Forgot to ask if you are going up to the Lightweight Adventures Festival?
Love the funny intro tune of Toxic and great film footage.
Oooh I do miss the sound of small arms fire in the morning!! Great vid AW!
