DeFconOK Posted July 14, 2014 Share Wahahaha Hardtail division,you would be surprised how much faster some hardtail riders are then FS riders. Thats why it would be cool, cause you could actually see who was on a hard tail and how fast they went Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicko Posted July 14, 2014 Share Yeah awesome event. Well planned, trail marking was good, I'm not aware of any hiccups with the timing, which is always good. Enjoyed all the stages, had a pretty decent day out on the bike, no crashes, and runs went well for me besides some cramping issues. Should make this a bi-annual event, given that there's hardly any enduro events in the second half of the year But yeah Dave and Nige (and whoever else helped) seriously well done with the organising, I don't think I can fault you on anything!

G00SE Posted July 14, 2014 Share I now have ROMO (Realization of missing out) Edited July 14, 2014 by goose1111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RvanZ Posted July 14, 2014 Share Was a fat jol. Took a tumble over the bars on stage 2, but no biggy. Was a good vibe amongst the riders, and awesome to chill afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sam Blake Posted July 15, 2014 Share Perfect event, Dave. I was one one of the bunch that did the goldfish bowl thing by accidentally riding back up B line on the 5th stage right before the house. It took a second run down the A line to realise I had to turn left into the house. All excellent stages and the idea to do the stages in any order was brilliant. The derby at the end was great spectator value. Lesson for next time, take out the kids first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you all had fun. Makes all the planning well worth it. Thanks a million to Dave for filling in for me. Bummed I missed it. Thanks for the positive feedback. If anybody else has any feedback or comments, feel free to send them to me. We are always looking for ways to improve and correct mistakes. If anybody has some pics or videos of the day, we would love to see them too, Unless it's of that idiot crashing into the safety fencing at the end of the final stage!!! Totally agree with Nicko, a second Giba enduro towards the end of the year would be awesome! Peach. and Nicko 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The derby at the end was great spectator value. Lesson for next time, take out the kids first! I need to go back and look at this section to figure out how you guys managed to turn backwards up a B line in stead of going forwards. But will note it for next time and make sure it is obvious. Luckily you realized were to go or else you may still be there, riding round and round in circles!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should go check, there could still be about five or six riders still circling around there. I think it was because as you came down the A line the door to the house wasn't apparent so you (well… some of us) were looking ahead at the trail as it veered to the right, not realising that was actually the approach from the B line.

Guest Sam Blake Posted July 16, 2014 Share Should make this a bi-annual event, given that there's hardly any enduro events in the second half of the year What this man says! Also worth mentioning that it was really well priced especially considering the free food and a beer at the end as well as the gift bags, free Fox shirts to the first 50, awesome prizes and lucky draws… And the dirty **** eating grin at the end was priceless (as was watching the race organiser careening into the finish fence with a beer bottle in his backpack). Probably the best value from a race that I've ever had. Nicko and David D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
