A Summer of XC Enduros
by Jane Lucas, 26 Apr 15.
We have now started preparing for three major events which taking place this Spring/Summer. They’re all XC Enduros, but are differently formatted, so we’ve got all your preferences covered.
First up is the Kawasaki G100 on Sunday 3 May - the first May Bank Holiday weekend - at Windmill Hill, Deepcut, Surrey, nearest postcode GU16 6TU.
The G100 is a well established, well loved personal challenge event. You choose how many laps of the 10 mile course you will do, and then you ride it as you want - fast, middle paced or steady. Every rider who completes their challenge will receive a finisher’s medal and those who are the fastest will also receive salvers and superb prizes such as tickets to the British Moto Cross Grand Prix, courtesy of headline sponsor Kawasaki. There'll be a major Kawasaki presence at the event with bikes and kit for you to look over and discuss and all the usual Gorrick facilities. Event flash sponsor GORE BIKE WEAR will be demoing their newly launched Alp-X Pro kit at the event too, and will be providing spot prizes for some lucky riders. If you haven’t done an XC Enduro before why not give it a go? This is a good one to try, as we have a 1 Lap Fun category for newcomers which starts at 10am.
