The course preparations have already begun and it`s looking dry with a good mix of technical and fast going. The lap is approx 22 miles and will consist of 30% all new virgin going.
As always the test will again have a lot of new going with a mix of tight woodland and fast tree tunnels to keep riders on their toes.

We will be running the usual 4 laps for Championship and Expert, 3 for Clubman and over 40`s and 2 for Sportsmen, and the all new for this season, Over 50`s class.

The start area will be the usual place with good dry parking.

MUD. GLORIOUS MUD!

For once, unfortunately, the weather forecasters got it exactly right. The promised rain and winds duly arrived in North Yorkshire, but fortunately failed to dampen the spirits of those taking part in the Helmsley XC, round 3 of the 2012 North of England Championship.

Run by Total Enduro and with a course designed by Graham Jarvis, the going was interesting yet eminently ridable. The broad tracks allowed plenty of opportunity to overtake, and the inclement conditions simply added some extra slipperiness to the proceedings.

Results will be posted soon on the Calendar page and on the Total Enduro web site site (www.totalenduro.com).

Those of you taking part who saw a strange figure in a day-glo bib cowering amongst the trees under an umbrella may be interested to know that, despite the decidedly unfavourable circumstances, filming took place - see below.

NE-XC round 2 - Sunday 1st April

THE SUN SHINES ON MASHAM

A glorious day in North Yorkshire for round 2 of the 2012 NE-XC championship. A great day for old and young alike with an extended 5-mile course using both old favourites and new bits of the Masham countryside.

Running in the opposite direction to 2011 provided the adult race with a selection of interesting climbs, although chicken runs were thoughtfully provided for those lacking the nerve to tackle the more entertaining hills.

Some thank-yous are in order, namely:
- to the 168 Adults and 14 Youths who booked in early and made it a cracking event;
- to the North Riding Enduro Club for yet another event of the highest quality;
- to everyone who marshaled, timed and organised for helping the event run so smoothly;
- to the land owner for allowing hordes of scruffy motorcyclists to enjoy themselves in the picturesque countryside.

Lastly, all at NREC wish a speedy recovery to no. 168 Jake Miller after his slightly unfortunate episode with a tree root.
