It’s about an hour from me, I’m not riding the event but wondered if there was anything their worth having a look at with the kids for a couple of hours or so.

Event village is ace, lots going on, plenty food etc for kids, and only a short walk to end of last stage, for some quality heckling/carnage voyeurism… 8)

Brill! Sounds Ideal!!

It’s enduro take a camera, something to bang and rattle and pick your best heckles

Last year the woods the bottom of stage 1 were the place to spectate heckle.

That section will be mint this year ! 😉

That section was good fun last year. There was bodies and bikes everywhere when I passed through.

With all this rain – and more to come – it’ll be a different box of frogs this year.

There’s a chance I might not be riding with my injury, if not I’ll be heading there armed with my camera.

Fell off in that exact spot last year!

Me too. Think it was your fault too Simon – sure you said take the inside on that corner. So I did. And I fell off (but still overtook 2 people mincing around the outside line!).

Ah the ever wonderful “bloke who isn’t moving, just standing, staring at me, right in my eyeline, for no reason what so ever” obstacle. I hate those.

Need another few photos in the middle of that sequence as it just goes from upright to flat out. 😀

That’s it I’m afraid! Got some videos I might put up later.

Why do people stand at the bottom of obstacles like that chap? I crashed into a bloke fiddling with his lights at the Pivot 24/12, he was on the only dry line at the bottom of a bomb hole.

Out the way!

I like the way neither the other rider doesn’t even move.

Anyone who is worried about that one section, do not ever enter a round of the SES, particularly Inners, Dunkeld or Laggan.
