Report on www.enduronews.com and results here Danny McCanney wins both days of the new ACU Championship round at Lauder with Tom Sagar a consistent second. A big thank you to Stevie Currie and his great team for a fantastic event and their first BEC round. With sun both days it was a hot day out but the riders had a chance to cool off in the river test and then have a nice mud bath to finish. The course followed  a route through the forest , across some brash then steep hills and descents before arriving at the out check.  A quick run down another steep forest track to the first test - a cross country blast and back along and across a river to wash of the dust. The second test started with a flat out blast up the hill followed by an MX style off camber descent down the hill - followed by a narrow gully and river crossing the a blast back to the finish. The  back to the pits and do it all again. Ceud Mille Failte - come back soon.   More photos here   Championship Enduro 20th MAY at Bon Accord Craiglash A great event with lots of new tracks and a new test. Thanks to Stewart Cooper and the team. Some new faces at the event - good to see new young riders getting round so well. The club marshals looked very efficient in their new red bibs - keeping the spectators and riders safe. The course was the usual mix of woods with off camber hills and the odd wee rock to catch out the unwary. Never an easy course but a rewarding one Provisional results here The Experts was won by a flying Fraser Flockhart on the Yamaha - with Andrew Bisset close in 2nd. Fergus Lamb was looking good for 3rd but a big off put paid to his day. Sean Mackay took the clubman class win closely followed by Jamie Black and Andrew Currie in 3rd In the Over 50's Andrew Maben continues to excel but was only 6 seconds ahead of Neil McGregor with Davie Hill always a threat in 3rd Max Hamilton lead the Sportsman home ahead of Alistair McGowan with Iain Henderson in 3rd Sportsman was won by Sandy Milne with Neil G Alexander in 2nd and George Mcbeth in 3rd.

This cancellation is specifically due to illegal riders in and around the forest creating additional work for the forresters preventing the club getting access to prepare the ground for the enduro. The SACU are deeply disappointed that this event cannot take place this year due to the blatantly irresponsible and selfish behaviour of a few riders who feel they can ride anywhere with no detriment to our sports. Losing this event is simple proof of how wrong they are. " Read the full release here      SACU Championship H&H Ecosse XC near Duns - 13th May.

Round 3 SACU Enduro Championship. A dull but mostly dry day for the newest venue in the calendar. Clerk of the course Steven Currie and his team did a great job to get a 10 mile lap on farmland, forest and the odd wee muddy bit ready in time. With over 100 riders it kept the check and timing crews busy all day. The tight and twisting woodland test providing a challenge with the constant change of direction. A new feature was the "Lauder Car Wash" - a deep gully leading to a nice bog on exit. Great fun to watch . Provisional results - click here .

ran  the first round of the 2018 SACU Hare and Hound Championship on 5th of November at Lauder Final Full Results - Click Here   5th of November and lots of fireworks. A fantastic new championship venue set out by Steven Currie and his team for the 1st round of 2018 SACU H&H chanpionship. Adding on extra stubble fields for the existing wooded practice area produced a fast and flowing track - with some very rapid riders out racing today. With electronic timing showing the positions as they day went out the leaders pushed hard. Andrew Bisset showed real grit when he ran out of fuel downhill from the pits - but pushed the bike in unassisted to refuel and then head off after the leaders. With some new names on the results it looks like being a hard fought championship for 2018. With sun all day the track stayed in perfect condition and was enjoyed by a large crowd of spectators.

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. Keep helmets separate so they cant use them to ride away. 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 wheelspindle 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.

NOTE ON HELMETS - IMPORTANT. Check before you turn up at an event Helmets will only pass scrutinering for racing if they carry an ACU gold or silver 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. Check the regs in the 2016 ACU Handbook - https://www.acu.org.uk/Uploaded/1/Documents/2016%20Handbook/ACU%20HANDBOOK_2016.pdf page 89.
