    Be a wicked ride in that mud..... depends if I get my pipe back in time and I need to spend a fair bit of time on the spanners on my bike...

    I've never done an enduro, I don't really understand it either. You have to get in before time and if you go over time... ????

    Nothing really, you move up from the time you were on, to the time you arrive at, and the difference gets added to your final points. You get DQ'd if you loose over an hour, but you can still keep riding, just you come last in class.

    If Scott can ride enduros, then so can you...
    we may just go where no ones been

    I'm keen I just have no idea what's involved.....
    Is it like all day? (Baby sitting at 6pm)
    All I know is you don't start your bike untill the first marshall.
    I assume you need a number on your bike. Is that supplied?
    Do I need a licence of some sort?

    Do I need a pit crew?

    Normally 5-6 hours, start at 10-10:40, figure finished by 4pm

    The number is supplied, basically it'll be the minute you start on, there are three riders per minute, eg 20,20A,20B
    You start on that minute every section, unless you fall behind. If you fall behind you can't make up time, so if you were on 20 & had to start on 22, you start on 22 from then on.
    The special tests are easy as, you roll up & they will say "Go when you are ready", go as fast as you can ( don't roost the helpers ) until you get to the end of the stage, you'll pass a mark before the finish of the stage, so you don't have to worry about someone in front of you when you finish.

    Nope, but you'll need to refuel & be wise to have clean goggles & some food.

    Enjoy, I have to sit this one out, but it'll be an awesome ride.

    Just show up and give it at try.. I was pretty hesitant at first, wasn't sure what to do but after one day it's all clear. I love it! Far more interesting than XC racing.

    Far better value for money as well.. You're riding on wicked quality tracks from 10AM-4PM(roughly). Give it a go!

    If you don't have a full license you're not put in the National class, slotted into the Top Trail Rider results. Same diff for the average rider.

    You're right, though they run a TTR ( Top Trail Rider ) series in parallel, you race the same event, but don't get national points.
