A small group of keen riders turned out in perfect sunny conditions on Sunday 22nd August for the second annual Blores Hill Checkpoint race. It would be interesting to see which type of rider would win the day – the super fit fast guys or those with local knowledge and/or superior navigation skills. |

Blores Hill 4 Hour Enduro – Race Report
By Tracey Whittaker Sunday 25 July saw 65 riders of all abilities gather together on a beautiful sunny morning to compete in the four hour enduro at one of the districts favourite riding spots, Blores Hill. With the sound of the car horn blaring through the bush, racing commenced at 10am through the car park and a hard right into the first section of single track. For the committed riders up the front who got to see the first accident of the day within the space of 30 seconds from starting, the rider had a front wheel wash out on the rocky corner and crashed into a tree. Four metres of bandaging later and a sore knee, they pulled the pin and went to the pub for lunch. For the rest of us, racing continued. Two sisters, Leonie Picton (better know for her awesome skills on the down hill bike) raced against her older sister, Tracy Whittaker (who also races down hill) to see who was the better cross country rider of the two…to be continued. |
