Scottish Enduro Series Rd 2 – Innerleithen

After the stormy start to the season at Nevis Range six weeks ago, the Poc Scottish Enduro Series travelled south at the weekend to the established venue of Innerleithen, home of long, physical stages and a local scene full of quick riders. With round 1 winner Joe Barnes only here for Saturday practice before leaving for Chile and the EWS opener, the series lead was … Continue reading Scottish Enduro Series Rd 2 – Innerleithen

Seize the day and all that jazz. Since Christmas it … Continue reading Lawson, Ling and Glover’s Route, Beinn Eighe

Pace and Momentum at the Strathpuffer

Last year, I swore that I would never do the ‘Puffer again. It was too damp, too dark, too gritty, and it cost too much in new bearings/chain/cassette etc. I think I said the same thing the year before; I’ll probably say the same thing before entries open for next year. When it comes down to it though, the thought of everyone else suffering their … Continue reading Pace and Momentum at the Strathpuffer
