This is finally rolling round after being rescheduled. Anyone else signed up? It'll be my first race, so not too sure what to expect. Any first race advice?

I'm due to be doing it although I am on nights that week leading up to it so might be too much of a mess. It's usually more mellow than the other Tweedlove enduros and a good mix of trail centre and off-piste. My first piece of advice is to not try and ride faster than you have ever done previously as that will result in crashes. You should practice going at the speed you want to go before the enduro and accept whatever pace you can handle on the day. It's usually great craic although sadly still missing the end party that usually results.

Sounds like good advice. Definitely trying not to get too competitive about it, as I want it to be fun rather than stressful

Well, did it, had fun, didn't die and wasn't last. My girlfriend won her (admittedly very small) class and came away with a bounty of whiskey, tyres and a heap of Muc Off stuff. Pretty successful! King and Queen up this weekend.
