Noel,

I guess it will be difficult to cater for everyone but personally would expect some degree of challenge being an enduro and not a trail ride.  I would expect to be totally shagged after the event.

Can we please have some form of ruling on what constitutes a tail light and headlight as many of us will be hitting Ebay hard to buy something just so we can enter the event.

Someone mentioned using a red reflector as a tail light.
And does the headlight need an actual light: I have a PE175 and was planning to buy the plastic headlight shroud and not fit the glass portion.

Counting down the days to this one.

BTW the Masters games has an enduro on the 2nd Nov on the gold coast.  I am told that EVO bikes are eligable.

OK we ran an enduroX last weekend on much of the track we intend to use (kids on 65s were doing it easy ;)) so this week we’ve hired a Bobcat to smooth out the woops and generally clean up the track.  There will be one maybe two hard sections, one uphill and one downhill.  You ride it enough, you will in all probability be shagged ;D.

The headlight and tail light can be as good or as bad as you like, this is the first one so we’re not that worried about it.  I think it is some thing that will work itself out, as guys take more pride in their enduro bikes ;)

More important than the headlight is the muffler, please keep this in mind.

Yep It's all good, could do with some rain though. As for a map type "conondale " into google maps, then zoom in untill you see Elaman Ceek the green shaded lot is Green Park.

Hi Noel, are there any water crossings? if so how deep as my airbox has been opened up for MX but I will close it up if we cross any deepish water

Tony the deepest crossing is about 300mm MAX so you should be OK.
We will be taking entries on Sat afternoon as well as Sun morning.
