Conditions could not of been much better for Rd 1 of the Tea Til Nearly Dark evening series, a nice cool evening greeted the 80 riders who had managed to get off work early to compete in this always popular event. Bang on six o’clock the Experts were away on the 4 mile course with Team
REME’s very own Mike Bailey getting the Holeshot (Not bad as he has only
just returned from Op’s and was given the bike to ride an hour before the
event). He was closely followed by the ever competitive Rich Warner with every
one else chasing hard. Rich took up the lead soon after At the end of the 2 hours Rich Warner (right) and James Jackman finished within 6 seconds of each other. Clubman Class was won by Roger Frean who was nearly 1 lap ahead of his nearest rival. Dave Salkeld came in with the honours for the Over 40’s class 1 lap ahead of Scottie Coombes and Marc Morley-Freer won the Sportsman class by 6 minutes. Round 2 will take place at the same venue but with a different course on July 1st. Don’t forget there will be prizes for the top 3 in each class after all 3 rounds have run.

The European enduro championship has certainly become a lot more competitive since the world championship became more restrictive on entries. Now there are plenty of world class riders competing in this championship. So while 18th and 15th don't look to be the best results these were pretty good given the competition and certainly among the British contingent were very comparable. Full report

An unusual thing happened this Sunday ( 7th June). Sir John Ropner invited 150 members of the North Riding Enduro Club, to ride around his private estate. The invite was snapped up, and 11am saw the riders set off in what was to be one of the best events of the year. The Thorpe H&H. North Yorkshire. Conditions were perfect. Sunshine, though not too hot. Damp ground to kill the dust, yet plenty of grip. The berms built up to inspire confidence, and the smiles got wider as the event went on.

Rich Warner wins Rd 1 Tea Til nearly Dark
the
woop’s section where Mike made a mistake. James Jackman was pushing hard as
always and made his way up into second and this is how the next two hours of
racing finished. At one point the organiser thought James had run out of fuel?
Because for most of the race he was that close to Rich Warner they thought he
was being towed. We must not forget MX GP rider Scott Elderfield who was
constantly pushing hard in third place but just could not latch on to the tail
end of the Enduro riders.
