I completed my first race last weekend. It was a 6 hour enduro as part of a 3 man team and it was great 🙂

I gave 10 years to one team member and 17 to the other but I was easily the slowest in the team. The team finished 9th out of well eh 9!

We were crap but a great day at Fowlmead nr Bettshanger in Kent was had by all.

I was doing the approx 5 mile lap at 27-28mins where as the others in the team were 26-27mins and 24-25mins. The fastest across all cats was 19.36mins.

I have fancied racing for a number of years but always not done because I thought I was slow (which I am), now I cannot wait for the next event 🙂

Hey doesn't matter if you're slow it's about entering for yourself and having fun and remember the more you ride/race the quicker you'll get!

nice one munqe-chick...yes I agree 🙂

The thing is I always thought I was fast ...

No matter how fast you think you are there is always someone faster (in this case quite a few faster) 😉
