    True mate, ive never heard off nor seen one before, would be a great bit of intertainment.. me and the kids love watching the SX so this enduroX looks right up our alley. Any word of any future plans for another one here.

    Yep, hard asses for sure. Have a look at some of the videos on you tube. Saw some of the Vegas one about 12 months ago, and a number of the competitors were posting on thumper talk, with helmet cam videos at the time.

    The rocky bits and logs on angles and corners sort the riders pretty fast. Scares the crap out of me looking at some of the starts to the holeshot.

    Right now, a hover craft, and water wings would be appropriate.
    Later into summer could be a goer though.

    Too true about the water wings. Been dragging a heifer out of a drain earlier in the day.

    I have thought about a small practice track. But yep when it gets drier..... And I get the digger going again...... Could be a plan

    I think I'd rather watch it than participate in it...but then again with the right bike and good private hospital plan it could be a goer

    Nelson club has an endurocross series. Went along for a watch last summer wiv Monstaman too, would be borderline/doable on an adventure single but I'd prefer the 2t.
    Cheers,

    Some of my own dodgy photos. Club photos.

    Most of the tricky bits had bypasses - which a lot of the juniors used. Didn't see much of the seniors racing.

    I've got PHOTOS and video of the previous enduro-x at Kinzett Creek.

    Yet to put the vid up as it's over 600mb and 21 mins.
