How did you others do today?
I Single Speeded the full Enduro in 2:56:140 -
Fair play! I dragged a 6" full susser round 3hr 17min.
Happy enough though, it's my first enduro. Just started to SS in the last few weeks but don't know if I'll ever get want to do that on it!0 -
I did the half enduro in 2.20 and came 45th out of 98 I was pleased with that and tbh could`ve easily continued on the full course. I found it really slippy in some places and with it being my local trail centre it was good going the opposite way along some of the trails
A cracking day was seemed to have been had by all 8)My 2012 Cube LTD http://www.bikeradar.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=128035930 -
I did the half-enduro and was 7th overall, 1hr 39mins. It was a warm one! Great riding Whinlatter in the dry again.0

Fair play to you on a 6" full susser as well.
Looking at the results and knowing a few riders behind me http://www.whinlatterchallenge.co.uk/results.asp
I guess I passed you 3/4 of the way around the first lap. Remember that bike with the fat front tyre and SS? that was me :oops:0 -

That was you on the Jones! You passed me on the long South climb before the downhill! You were like a mountain goat!
This was my first enduro I think I've learned a lot from it.0 -

Yes that was me, I've been called many things but never a mountain goat :oops:0 -
I did the half as well. Started fading out on the last climb in the heat, so had to get off and get an apple down me. About 20 riders passed me whilst I was eating.
Finished in 2.20.170
