Dirty Sanchez Posted July 22, 2013 Share Hi Richard, Enduro in MTB terms is not the same as what you're presenting here. Endurance might be more appropriate. Good luck with the event! ChUkKy, DR ◣◢, All Mountain Girl and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Beswick Posted July 22, 2013 Share Hi Skandalis I'm aware of the mx and now mtb enduro term but we have always used it as a shortened form of endurance. maybe one day as enduro gets bigger we will have to change the name but for now im sure people can figure it out.

RockCoach Posted July 22, 2013 Share or maybe, we will just add in some form of typical enduro racing to the event Has Avianto got enough elevation to build a couple of Enduro descents? Probably need at least 2kms with 100m drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Beswick Posted July 22, 2013 Share I think we could get pretty close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted July 22, 2013 Share I've done the 12hr for the last two years. Excellent course and venue but the thunderstorms at around 19:30 play havoc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolipoli Posted July 22, 2013 Share Just because you like to shorten the the name "Endurance" by NO Syllables, doesn't make it correct. If you can't get the name of the discipline right, it doesn't speak highly of the event you are organising. Just change the name and avoid the flack.

DR ◣◢ Posted July 22, 2013 Share yes, make the title 6/12 hour race. will be there for solo. sweet half-hour race? Seriously. Enduro suggests something completely different to this. Just call it the Varsity College 12 Hour Challenge. I actually thought this was a proper Enduro race. Then I saw Avianto in the same sentence and it all became clear.
