That looks most excellent - lovely looking course, not too hard for a novice - where was it, how much did it cost ?

Cheers

Looks great fun - I need to have a go at doing one!

I entered my self into the dawn to dusk in Wales a couple of years ago and managed 1 lap! That was hard!

That track look much more like my sort of thing :-)

The track you can see in the photo's is the easy part the bits through the woods and quarry where the hard parts! the inportant thing is to pace yourself and not ride beyond your abbilities! like i did!
I made the mistake of setting off like i would on a mx track and was knackered after the 1st lap! everyone i past then reover took me:rolleyes:

Looking forward to the next one though:cool:

Did you get out in any snow? I saw a few lads heading out around here and was abit green eyed to say the least. I've been looking into an enduro bike for a while now, i used to love greenlaning on my old 50 raggin the tit$ off it was great fun.

I quite fancy a bike like yours the 2strokes look abit mental for me!!

During the race we got a few flurries of snow! I started off with a YZ250 but your right they are mental!!! So i sold it and bought a KXF250
