Foxwell Enduro
Lucky enough to have great weather for a great event with some great company (and Joss ) which all added up to top day!
Don't know if these thing are getting harder or weather it's old age and a lack of fitness catching, but was glad to see the end - so glad in fact that I had a little roll around in the grass to celibate right on the finish line
The turn out included 3 Devon lads (2 lads and an old bloke actually ) 4 mates from Hampshire, Joss & Co, Wolfy and Ray (both with sick notes) plus my 'team mate' Denzil (I use the term team mate loosely as he buggered of sharpish from the line not to be seen again until later on when he nobbled me with a hard boiled egg )
Although I felt like I was travelling at a reasonable(ish) pace every time I upped it a bit had a close shave with one of the million's of trees lining the track so chickened out again consequently getting whipped by almost every one except Joss - who obviously would have won it outright only for his arm pump, dodgy knees, dodgy hips, squiffy eye and a slightly tight left boot

Re: Foxwell Enduro
Enjoyed the Vid Shock and it was the Right boot!
And I reckon you should have been banned for sliding into the check on your arse! It was a blue taped 6 MPH area you know...
Well done Shock! Didn't see ew on the going once. I saw a camera with Wolfy attached to it lots of times. Looking forward to the pics. One of our lot had a Go-Pro so that should be interesting.
Enjoyed it loads. Knackered at the end. But we all made it! Right foot looks like an elephant foot today, need to get it up off the ground. No problems for me realy, wasn't going fast enough.
Got tangled up in the undergrowth on the test once, and stalled it in the bottom of one of them holes on the second, but that was me being to knackered to pull the clutch in properly. Try to go too quick when you you can't and that sort of thing happens haha.
Great day, great company ( and Sh cok), Bloody good laugh, and did I say I finished...
Nice to bump into Kirky and Antrov (plus black eye?) Never did get up the courage to ask how that came about...
Bring on more Vids and Pictures...

Re: Foxwell Enduro
Was a cracking event, also good to see you guys again and how bloody typical, out of the 3 previous laps and I go and fook up that part of the test right in front of Wolfy when he had the bloody camera on!!! As Shocker says it starts to go wrong when your tired, most of the final lap had bloody cramp in my left thigh

Re: Foxwell Enduro
Arm pump after 10 mins
Sprained ankle start of lap two.
Knackered after lap two.
Survival tactics on lap 4.
And on top of that, try to stand up every time you see Wolfy...

Not that bad really, but definitely thought more about finishing than racing...
