It was awesome....
Just challenging enough to keep you interested but not too so that it pissed you off....
Did 2 laps of the south track and 1 of the north , 2 laps of the spiral challenge thingy ..
I would not have liked it any wetter , so hats off to those who rode in the enduro.
Oh and I had a nice burger ...

what a great ride, it was hard and dusty and alot of fun, the "test" section at the top of the carpark was a hoot, and the endurox section was something different, i really dont know how the M3DE guys did any of that in the wet.

TBH I enjoyed it more two weeks ago when it was wetish, those bone dry hard as ruts scare the shit out of me.
The "Impaling" bit was pretty scarey ....
Close ...
The ridge part was probably the best, fast flowing through trees that was deffo more fun than when it was wet.
Dam, I wish I had my camera on for that bit.

The main trails in the north end were a blast.
some nice fast flowing sections, the ridge was awesome.
conquered the Everest hill climb ok
burgers fueled me up for a few more laps.
The dry ruts in the south red loop were a bit of a trial though.
Fantastic way to start my holidays.

I've got lots of dents in my pipe. How much does Chris charge to take the dents out? Isn't he on the shore?

Thats Daffyd on here.
He doesn't have a Hynds pipe guard for the 200 only the 250 and 300. I've been after one to replace my pipe snake for ages.
