Provisional Results Sun 31st March 2024
A great start to the new Enduro Championship with the season opener at Lossiemouth.
Rounds 1 and 2 were staged by the Highland Enduro Club at the popular Lossiemouth forest. In a change from previous years
there was no beach run with deep sand but this was made up for by a monster bog which claimed a few bikes.
The test was run in the trees and was a tight and testing challenge with some close racing .
Andrew Bisset claimed victory on both days followed home by Frazer Norrie in a rare appearance but showing all his normal
speed. Sam Boyd continues to impress with a fine pair of thirds.
Youngsters Robbie Davidson and Cai Hewitt moved up to the Expert class and put in some fast times over the extra lap .
Cai Hewitt suffered from the dreaded Lossie Foot ( a recognised medical term) and only completed the Saturday.
Thanks to Jim Mair and the hard working team for another memorable event under trying circumstances - including
lightning and hailstones on the Saturday.
The next round is at Craiglash with Bon Accord in 3 weeks on 21st April.

Photos from February CEC practice day at Kilsyth. More photos here - CEC Practice Feb 2024
An excellent track giving riders 20 - 40 minutes a lap depending on speed. Lots of wee hills and big stubble fields to get up to speed on.
23rd January 2023
Watch out - thieves in action in Perthshire. Apparently there is a gang doing the rounds breaking into garages.
This looks like a targeted theft so lock up your bikes - remove wheel spindles & keep them out of sight. Ground anchors are good as they are noisy to deal with.
This is a KTM 250 ECX -F that has been stolen - please pass any info on to the Police.

Thanks to all the clubs who made a massive effort over the year to organise and set out fantastic courses for riders to compete over.
Thank you to all the riders who took part and supported the Championship.

Advice for securing bikes
Chain them to the floor or a wall in a garage or secure shed.
Remove wheel spindles so the bike can't be pushed away.
If in an outside shed use a baby monitor so you can hear if anyone is in the shed.
Alarm your bike store.
Avoid having bike specific stickers on your vehicle if it is parked at your house.
When selling a bike - before you show the buyer the bike photograph them and their vehicle. Take a photo of their driving licence.
Remove a wheel spindle and disconnect the spark plug before they arrive.
Do not give any documents until cheque or cash is paid into bank. If the buyer objects - say goodbye.
If possible ask your local police station if you could sell the bike at their premises - crooks will not want to be at a Police Station.
At events - Safety advice. Check your vehicles for trackers before you leave. Watch out for any vehicles following you.
At events photograph any suspicious people or vehicle taking an interest in bikes.
NOTE ON HELMETS - IMPORTANT. Check before you turn up at an event
Helmets will only pass scrutineering for racing if they carry an ACU gold sticker attached. (All helmets sold as suitable for "ACU competition" will have the stamp affixed by the dealer.
If your helmet does not have an ACU sticker attached contact the dealer to ask for the sticker. Helmets can be assessed by the ACU or SACU by posting in the helmet and paying a £15 certification fee - which includes return postage.
Helmet or body mounted cameras are prohibited. Cameras may be mounted on the motorcycle.
If you want more riding - the North East of England Championship rounds are well worth doing . Enduro and XC. See http://www.enduro-neec.org.uk/ for more info and a calendar.
If you find the sport is interesting and would like to ride or assist then contact a club as we are keen to attract new members to the sport. There is an over 40's class and a Ladies award, so everyone can get out and ride.
Enduros in Scotland are organised from March to October with events from the Borders to Inverness . All classes of rider are catered for with Expert, Clubman, Sportsman and over 40's classes.
To compete you need to be a member of a club and either hold an SACU or ACU licence - or can get a one day licence at the event. You need to send in an entry form prior to the event, entries are available on this site or from the host club.
The aim of Enduro Competition is to complete the course via several checkpoints in a set time. You may not check in early or late without penalty. Generally the top riders go "clean" and the event is then decided on the result of special test times. There will be one or two tests per lap of a Moto-X or cross-country type. For the slower riders there is up to a one hour allowance over the set time for the course to achieve a finish.
Enduros are exactly what they say and even to finish is an achievement. So go on - try an event and get out on the hills. There is no other sport like it.
