So I cleaned my bike, then while out for a ride just happened to see a track leading off into the woods ;)
It was pretty rutted with braches and a big puddle to navigate (blat straight through) leading to patch of cleared trees. Being my first off road run I gunned it everywhere even over stumps as I didn't want it fall over.
Then I got off to take a pic with my phone, put the side stand down which promptly sank 6 inches into ground before I got my hip against the tank to save it. Wedging wood under the stand did the trick :-D
