Mercian Enduro 10 April 2011 "Another One Bites the DUST!"

Footage from the start of the Mercian Enduro on Sunday 10th April 2011

I know who bit the dust at 04.14 onwards into the footage but can you guess who it was!!!

tell me thats not paddy fliping his bike??????

Bingo! It sure is, though an allowance has to be made being it's his first ever race and what with nerves and such ( I should know---I raced in the BSMA and AMCA for a few years ). He's had a bit of trouble with the clutch prior to the event and put a new one in so the clutch action had to be got used to as well. I know he had an enjoyable day though. My brother went with him whilst I was out with you Yanto.

must have been all that adrenaline bursting through his body!!
Glad he had a good day!!!

report plz pad???

Never seen that guy before in my life, no idea who he is

Paddy

i raced paddy.......what a tough event hey! dont worry they are not all as rough and technical as that!

Lost my saddle on the first lap had to rest my bike gaianst a tree and go running down the track 20 metres to collect it lol

Last but one lap i had a over over the bars incident with the bike on top of me.....it was in the final river bed i was sliding down the very steep entrance slope and a bike had stalled at the bottom, i had no other alternative other than to squeeze the front brake, as soon i touched his back wheel my back end cartwheeled over my head and planted me head first in the stream! cooled me off i suppose! lol
