TREK
2/4/6
Enduro Series
ROUND 3
THETFORD FOREST PARK
NORFOLK
The info:
Sunday is Trek 6-4-2 Enduro day. An extended version of Saturday’s course keeps the riding interesting and the unique format allows an opportunity for riders to choose their race. As the name suggest Trek 6-4-2 offers the choice of 6, 4 or 2 hour endures and the introduction of separate expert/elite and open categories means you can choose your opposition. There is a pit area where you can leave your race supplies and this also acts as the changeover area for pairs/teams. TORQ energy products will be on hand and are offering an unlimited energy support package for only £5 which includes a TORQ drinks bottle. All trek 6-4-2 entrants will also receive a delicious TORQ Energy bar.

~ Bicyclemania Ride ~
There was no team orders for the day 'it was every man for himself'. The two new boys to mountain bike endures were 'Rammstein & Treehugger' they were very keen to 'have-a-go' at an Enduro event. Anyway as it worked out the pair off them did bloody well, Kidder & Chiefy were in a laid back mood for this weekends event ... They didn't what to show up the new boys.
(Believe that and you'll believe anything..!)

Exciting Course
Don't believe what other riders say about Thetford Forest not been challenging enough, it's was a brilliant course, O.K. so their are no long hard climbs but the fast twisty single-tracks make up for that. If your not flicking form left to right your going up and down on mini moguls, and there is no time to sit back due to the speed you are going at.

Start Somewhere
Thetford Forest is an ideal place to start off your first mountain bike event, if it wasn't for the new riders coming into the sport it would of died a death some time ago. The two new boys to the game enjoyed the challenge and are now hooked on more events. All the trailfinders had a slight 'miss-hap' in one form or another.  'That's mountain biking'
'Lefty to right Tree-Hugger, Chiefy, Kidder & Rammstein'
