 You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Just a bit of assistance needed. My wife would like to, or has shown an interest in, or has talked about, entering some sort of enduro event. Can anyone oint me in the direction of either a comprehensive list (similar to the fell runners association https://fellrunner.org.uk/races.php) or something she might enjoy. Maybe half a day, somewhere in Wales or up north, low key, reasonably competitive friendly vibe?
Ive had a trawl about some of the events are more aimed at the AAArghhhhh downhill... Arghhhhh rip someones legs off bo**ocks. Which she would hate.
The Pedal hounds and Southern Enduro events are great friendly events.

Have a look at the PMBA ones, always a friendly bunch. There is also the Hope Womens Enduro usually at the end of the season which is as good as it gets in everything you are looking for.

100 percent recommend the welsh enduro series
ran by the guy who runs antur, and a really nice bloke too. They even do one at llandegella within the series so she may know the territory. Super friendly, very well organised and a good laugh. A mate and I have our lads riding in them and we are allowed to support ride as they are still young and we tend to have as much fun as them!! Heres a great link I use for all the races/events going on.
Chopwell Funduro is ace-

It's a 3 stage effort with each one being run twice, so 6 timed stages in total. There were 2 girls and 7 women racing it last year.
Sounds like the womens hopetech enduro could be a good shout. I'd also recommend the FoD mini enduros, always a few female entried and really relaxed pressure free environment.
Fantastic.
Thanks for the help, I'll probably try to get a ticket for the Welsh Gravity race near Shrewsbury.
Ill stay in the van with the dog drinking tea. Not the dog drinking tea, I'll drink tea.
