After walking the course on Saturday, conditions would be perfect. The track was very flowing and had alot of mixed going from muddy woods to dry flowing fields. Details

Future Racing’s Paul Cowshall followed him in for 2nd and Midwest Husaberg’s Tyson Maytom-Jones came in with a good solid 3rd place, which was enough for him to clinch the overall for the series and carry the number 1 plate into the 2010 series.

The ELRAT Giffin Enduro was cancelled at the weekend due to the severe weather therefore the next round of the Scottish Championship is on the 20th September at Yarrowford near Selkirk. The Metzeler Melville Team has invested in updating the timing equipment for the special tests and the club is hopeful that it will give more accurate results much quicker. In the Expert Class Derek Little is at the top of the Championship table although there have been 7 winners in 8 events with Neil Chatham and Allyn Scotland taking their first overall wins recently. Grant Smith is in second place with a raft of riders close behind including the young talented Fraser Norrie and the mud master Murray Thomson. Derek, Grant and Ricky Mair are starting their preparations for the ISDE next month. This popular enduro will be set out with the poor weather in mind although most of the course should stand up well and therefore the event should go ahead. Regs
