[#7192132]

E-mailed Scott at qecp last week and apparently I'm 9th on the waiting list having been 10mins too late entering.

So please, pretty please, pretty pretty please, anyone entered who knows there not going to make it now, or anyone entered who finds out in the next couple of weeks that they can't make it, please make sure you tell Scott so he can give your place to someone else (hopefully me !)

I'm gagging to do this one as it's my local race, and I know what it's like at these types of races, there's always quite a few no shows on the day. If that's going to be you pretty pretty pretty please let Scott know !

Thanks

You should be 1 higher on the waitlist as I withdrew from it, it was sold out at 9:29 so I must have been quite high on the wait list. As I haven't heard back yet I'm going to extend my Alps holiday a few more days rather than come back on the off chance of a place

Not sure, 4 dropped out and one dropped from the list so must be about 4.

Scott - Any chance of an update, I've gotta be close.......

How long is the list? Any chance at getting in there at all? Didn't bother as I assumed it would be massive!

Hopefully the french hospital doesn't mean too much of a disaster for some poor sod....

Doesn't work like that. Let Scot know so those on the reserve list get the invite.

Wow I did not know that. I know a few who would have had it, will remember that for next time.

Just to say thanks to Scott for sorting this out so late.

If only other race organisers were so understanding!

Gutted I cant race but good luck to rob and all who are

One of my mates has a spare entry going - he broke himself in the alps last week and hasn't recovered in time - Scott said to sell it directly because he's too busy taping the course etc now. Anyone want it?

Well, weather's looking bit ropey now, better get them mud tyres out I think! Unusual for the qecp though, they normally book the best weather.

Well that was some good old fashioned mud based fun. Came 7th in masters which was pretty decent I thought, frustratingly just 6 seconds off 3rd. Lost all that on stage 1 I reckon which I rode like a total spanner.

Hope everyone enjoyed it, heard a few jacked it in after practice due to the weather which was a shame as wa's a great event as always, big thanks to Scott and the team. Looking forward to the promised 4 race series next year, any more details Scott?

Southern enduro:
In 2016 We will be running 4 round series in the south east.
I am working on 2 new private venues that currently have no trails and are not on chalky hills like QECP.

They will be run very much like the QECP races. Friendly and fun.

Check out the southern enduro Facebook and twitter for updates.

On roots and rain you have an entry for Southern Enduro, venue TBA 1st November 2015.
I assume this is inaccurate?

It's still a faint possibly.
I have all the paperwork, insurance quote & route planned. However the venue is going through a transition period with it's lease. Which mean unless that's sorted I can't use the venue.

That why I have to been taking about it. I am in close contact with the committee so if the lease does get sorted I will start banging on about it.
