Who’s up for the friday morning connection speed test then? 😆

Is this like the Ard Rock? Are the events similar or two different beasts?

Similar.

Different area’s, similar format.

Are tickets for this up for sale soon then?

Friday at 6am I think.

Thanks for the heads up. As i failed to get in to the full enduro at ard rock (did get the Sunday ride) I’ll take a whirl at this, cheers OP.

I’m hoping to get a place. Done the last two Ard Rocks but away next year so can’t make it. Looks like there’s only the 1 event at Ard Moors is this correct?

Entries open at 6.30am, you have 25 minutes to enter up to 6 riders.

I see the price of camping is now £10 per night… Ard Rock 2015 it was a flat rate of £5.

Contemplating it, I’ll be heading up alone if I do.

I’ll hopefully be there Sam, I’m sure we’ll manage a beer.

I’m definitely up for this. Done the ard rock this year and last but will be away next August. Anyone know how much the moors costs?

Same as Ard rock I’d imagine FR.

£62 plus £10 pppn camping.
Don’t think I can justify that cost

I can, quite easily. It’s about ball park for a day out at a premier league match, but you’re absolutely guaranteed to be entertained, which you can’t say about the footy. 😀

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that it isn’t value for money.
I would even consider going to watch football. I’m an F1 fan, but that’s probably never going to happen either!
I can’t justify it in terms of personal disposable income.

Or, to be honest, I can’t justify it to the wife! 🙁

Fair do’s! 😀

I’ll be trying to enter myself along with 3 mates, got entries to the 2017 ard rock Saturday event, so would be nice to do this too. Rode the ard rock on the sunday this year, was the best enduro event I’ve done.

The ard moors is on my old local stomping ground as I grew up near there, I did a few DH races up there in the mid-late ’90’s as part of the NAMBS series on the carlton bank DH course. From looking at some youtube footage it looks like one of the 2016 sections used a lot of the old track off the top of lord seat.

😯

I’m hoping to get 2 entries.

Planning on entering. How Gnar is it? cant find much on the interweb, watched the stages on youtube and they dont look too hardcore.

I’m in.

Missed it. Dodgy Welsh Internet. **** it I’m off out shortly to ride where I want!

Like the Looniez, I got 5 in it.

I’m in! Gone to waiting list only already after only 10 mins

I’m in, with 3 mates

It said waiting list only at 6:32 for me. Bugger.

I was on waiting list by 6:32 for me. Was on at 6:30 but using phone as opposed to laptop on previous years. Hey ho.

I’d assumed it wasn’t live and sat there refreshing rather than adding my name.

I’m in, glad I got out of bed early now 😀

In with a few mates, another group of mates didn’t manage though. Lots of cross people on Facebook, not sure how long they can keep using eventbrite but what’s the alternative, EWS style lottery?

Lots of folk moan about it, but tbh how else do you do it fairly when demand outstrips supply?.

I’m in, care of Jon Taylor up there. 🙂
First ever Enduro for me (other than Dyfi)

Lots of folk moan about it

On the whole, it’s not bad. Lots of people will miss out but that’s always going to be the case. On the plus side, so long as you have one (or two) mates with ninja internetz you can get the whole gang entered and ride as a bunch of mates. Y’know, kind of the whole point.

In with 2 others.
Glad I was up early as well, didn’t think it would be as popular as Ard Rock but perhaps entries are more limited.

There’s only one race all weekend, as opposed to AR which has what, 4?, so demand is high for this too.

Edit – Yokaiser of this parish just got an email entry from the waiting list, check yer inboxes…

Yep. Waiting list worked for me.

waiting list, got nothing

btw im not fussed about it or angry its just some folks were faster than me. First come first served imo.

Another one that went straight to waiting list…. got an email at 10.30 with entry then.
