If you missed this event you missed a world class Enduro !
It’s worth repeating … two full checks 70 and 50 minutes for the experts with a 10 minute test all on varied forest terrain. Nothing easy but no stoppers either for those who used the bike and eyes to beat the going as against running headlong into trouble. Wet underfoot but a clear dry day made for some fantastic trails. Rocks, roots, fire roads, shale climbs varied the lap at every turn. The workers did a brilliant job. Repeat, a world class route.
What was a little disappointing was the expert, senior entry level. It was the riders loss to
Miss.
Many sportsman riders also took an incorrect route following trails in reverse missing the turn arrows. For Enduro.ie that was down to inexperience following a leading riders track as against looking to see the marked route. When there are no markers or markers pointing against the track something is wrong.
Congratulations to aAl the workers who obviously worked tirelessly to mark and clear the track. Congratulations also to All who finished a hard but fair event.
It was that good, too good to miss next time.
