5 riders from the SBEC headed south to Helmsley for the penultimate round of the NEEC championship , having been very heavy rain the night before & on the Saturday an Vinduro had been using the course it was going to be tricky conditions . At the start you were straight into the stubble field test so that got the adrenalin pumping straight away then a further 2 tests per lap after , 1 in the woods using the test they used for the BEC rounds & back into the stubble field for another test . The going was slippery to start with & there were plenty tree roots to give you no rest but got better as the day went on.     Alistair Millar was was riding in the Experts they were doing 4 laps & 9 tests in total , Alistair finished 5th with some pretty consistent times    Mark Ritchie rode in the O40s & went clean on lap times & finished 8th place not bad for having a dodgy hip , knee , elbow , head    Ben Thomson rode in Clubman E1 & finished a fantastic 2nd place in class & 3rd place out of all the Clubman classes     Peter Nixon rode in Clubman E2  finished the race after giving his Elbow a good workout as he gets back to fitness , Pete finished 11th & dropped only 23 mins yes that's right 23 mins     Lindsay Rae was also in Clubman E2 & finished in 8th place after dropping 8 mins yes only 8 mins (serious lack of fitness)       Good day was had by all & well done to Dirtbike Action for another great event         Thanks Lindsay Rae

Regs changes for 2013 - following the recent dates meeting and feedback from riders, clubs and the Enduro Committee the attached changes to the Enduro regs will take place for the 2013 season. Click here for the 2013 Enduro Standing Regs These only apply to Enduros and no change has been made to Hare and Hounds regulations 1.                  Expert Class to be split into Championship and Expert to allow riders to gain experience once promoted from Clubman class. Championship class – Red plates. 5 laps (where suitable) at Championship pace Expert Class – Green plates. 4 laps (where suitable) Lap 1 at Clubman pace. Lap 2 and 3 at Championship pace. Lap 4 at Clubman pace. This is designed to introduce the riders to the increased speed of the Expert class. Existing Expert riders will be classed as Championship – but may apply to the Enduro Committee before the start of the season if they wish to ride Expert. 2.                  All Championship rounds to count. 3.                  Clubman E Classes to be removed – due to the decreased number of riders in Clubman. Can be reviewed in future years. 4.                  Riders may continue to ride in a class after they have won a Championship for a further 2 years.  If the rider wishes to remain in the class after that they can ride for no points. 5.                  Over 50 award. This has been suggested to be awarded on the basis of riders in the Over 40 and Clubman classes as they have the same laps and times. It is not a championship but will be an award at each event with a summary at the end of the season. 6.                  Rider nos. Riders will be issued a number at their first event of the year and then retain that number for the rest of the year. These will be based on classes –eg  1 -50 Champ. 51-100 Exp etc. The numbers for Hare and Hounds may be requested by riders when they enter.
