hehe, knee tall grass covered rough pasture and fire lane roads like they race rally cars on IS NOT OFF ROADING TO THE LIKES OF Ms Peel, just normal commuting and refreshment even a bone stock Commando can handle pretty darn good routinely, though the factory bikes can't take it like Ms Peel. I am so sold on the isolastics frame with Peel's one in a row 3 links set up and my fork mods, so expect to put vintage Commando name in new light of pecking orders no matter the conditions.
Hehe I've actually not done that much severe off roading as its so danergous I'm too scared not to have others around to help me and bike back after crashes or report me missing and last seen...
This is the level I want to play with Peel in and essentially already have, even the sharp wall turn elevated over a drop so no room or fork range enough to turn sharp enough so rear slide around used, though doing it around a tree on slope with drop off a few stories down to ravine bottom full of forest debris on loose leaves, so had to lean even further out d/t bar clearing the tree trunk I was trying not to hug. I love the short cuts taken by the leader jumping off ramp at diagonal as about the same as me on Peel coming home after spanking the tires off sport riders so still seeking some real trills to just leap off culvert into creek bed thats similar to the tire fields and bowling balls and root masses with stump in the center. I did it routinely to warm up for Graveled run to pavement then heat tires for refreshment flings. There are a few tree falls across this spring branch I'm sorely tempted to try but for no crash cage in case I can't deal with the far end root mass sticking up vertical and rotten bark not giving thrust grip as slides off in sheets. Sheeze.

One of the badest thing Peel survived was seeing a 6ft tall almost vertical embankment at a friends place I just shot right up it 30's mph to get a few feet air borne but didn't know there was a foot deep drainage rut just beyond the crest cross wise to travel in the grass, so landed in that nose first to trap tire to bottom forks silently as helmet hit yokes then blasted back up unexpected to get hit in tail bone as rear launched up, but didn't fall and didn't injure anything, whew, but gave me knowledge of what Peel could take beyond the impacts and obstacles of the Red Bull event.
As usual I'm saying ya just don't know what ya missing out, on or off road with likes of Ms Peel. Hehe I was able to stay seated on Peel in places the MX and trial bikers on theit pegs, but they just stuck to the beaten course wild as that was, was too boring to me so took off in raw untraveled woods so brushy thick surprising deer and encountering stuff that did toss me and Peel down.
