Pallington Forest Results...


Results from todays event at Pallington Forest are now online at www.enduro.org.uk/results.html


It was a hard event for everybody - after the wettest November on record AND the wettest night of the month on Saturday it was always going to be hard - but most of you finished and for that well done! And what about those marshals! Well done and thank you to everybody who helped or raced today - awesome!

Pallington Last Minute stuff...



Just a couple of reminders and notes regarding Sunday's event at Pallington.

Firstly a group of travellers have set up home on the track we are using to access the event - please be courteous as you pass by and keep an eye out for children and pets.

Regarding the event itself please don't forget the following:
  • Trials or Speedway rear tyres only.
  • Enduro or 'Q' pipes only. If your pipe has a removable insert please make sure it's fitted.
  • Please make sure you have the correct colour backgrounds - it can be difficult to overtake in the forest and knowing which class the guys around you are in will help everybody.
  • There are two 'expert' routes one of which has the potential to save a minute or two - but if you get it wrong you could lose big time. The choice is yours, but please remember that there is absolutely no marshal assistance on expert routes.
Look forward to seeing you there!

Pallington Final Instructions & Course Conditions



Final Instructions and Entrants List (the event is now full) are now online and can be downloaded from the here or from the 'Events' tab at www.enduro.org.uk.

Practical preparations are also well underway. The course has been very carefully planned, especially taking into consideration the fact that this has been the wettest November on record!

The vast majority of the route is in the forest proper and should ride nicely with just the odd puddle here & there reminding us how wet it's been, but of course it would be boring if it were too easy so there are a couple of slippery tracks (wet clay - that should be fun!) and various other little amusements. The only two areas of minor concern are the two small boggy ditch crossings which have to be crossed regardless (there is no way to create a circuit without) so a couple of log rafts are being created to bridge these - once covered in ply (and treated with just a little savvy) these should do the job - fingers crossed!

Pallington Forest update


  • Pallington Forest Entries: There are now only a hand full of entries left for next weekends event so if you're hoping to ride please be sure to get your entry in asap!
  • Course conditions: I know a good many of you are concerned about the rain we've been having but fear not - the upper levels of the course are looking about perfect with just a few puddles here. The lower levels are not surprisingly rather wet and depending on next weeks weather we may trim the course a little to avoid the worst of the wet & boggy stuff, still we're happy we can come up with a thoroughly rideable and enjoyable event and will post an update on course conditions (together with the entrants list) over the next couple of days.
All for now, look forward to seeing you next weekend
