Well we are well into the 2010 enduro season at this stage with the summer Enduro break now in full swing and the Killavullen Enduro only two weeks away.

The season so far has been just fine with 1-2 challanging enduros to start with. The new Whitemountain enduro was a beautiful course but unfortunately the deluge of rain the night before the race meant the tracks cut up fairly badly and after two laps of the course it was going to be survival of the fittest. Actually on our 3rd lap there were only 20 riders left in the race so survival was the name of the game. Came 3rd on day and home with a bike in one piece which was a fair result .

Glendalough was a tremendous event with one shale based uphill which caught out a few riders judging by the queue to climb each lap. There was also a tricky uphill for seniors and experts which had a BMW 450 parked on it upside down on the 1-2 lap but it was gone for the 3rd lap. Mount Leinster round two of the Irish championship was held in an unusually sunny Mount Leinster in 2010. This was in fact one of the most enjoyable events year to date and even though the gasser was running like a bag of nails a top ten finish was on the cards.     

It is now onto Killavullen for the famous 2-day round of the Irish championship on Sept. 4-5th and we are all looking forward to it with re-built bikes engines and for those who have won the lotto in the meantime there will be some new 2011 models on the line. Watch out for the next update with a full overview on the Baja 1000 out next challenge.  
    
Yours in extreme offroading.
