dude. Come along for the jol. It's a lekker set of trails, those, and a great day out. Even if just on a hardtail or XC bike. As long as you have fun!

 

BTW - first "race" I would have been in in a little under 2 years. In that time, I've gained 10kg, lost a lot of pace but mostly just am entering for the feck of it. Couldn't care about my place.

I'll have to decide on the eleventh hour.

If I rock up. You'll have to battle me for last place.

Not too much time left for that. As far as I know it's pre-entry only and they close tomorrow.

 

Just do it.

This. Enter, bro. DO IT

[Johnny Lawless]

This will be my first enduro and really can't wait. I've done a handful of xc events and although those were fun and all I always knew that I much prefer the downhill stuff to the "sitting on the saddle spinning for 3 hours" stuff. Bring it!

Okay, so who is busting to do this one?

 

I have entered. I recon the trails will be great after the rain.

pretty amped myself.been looking forward to this season's racing for what feels like forever.

Anyone know if WPGE will be running a series as well? I'm hoping the season is chockfull of events.

[Headshot]

Ya, me too. I believe the WPGE races start a bit later in the year.

 

Only downside is the spiraling cost of entries and bike parts  to keep our machines running. Think the last Dirtopia event I did last year was R250, not R300.

I have just entered. My 1st enduro race! Pretty excited. I haven't ridden delvera in years, is it acceptable to go for a chilled cruise on the trails on Friday afternoon, is is that a no no in enduro circles?

[Donovan Le Cok]

Entered. Looking forward to having some fun!

There isnt any rule against it and besides, Meurant usually tapes the route differently to the standard trails if memory serves...

[Johnny Lawless]

Btw, I think everyone at the Enduro should wear a nametag with their BikeHub name on. It'd be like everyone knows each other
