The Races
Youth Race
A standalone event run on the Saturday morning – designed especially for younger riders, over the age of 10 and under 16 years old – avoiding any extreme sections but still tough enough to provide a challenge.
Registration, Scrutineering & Briefing
Entrants must attend the mandatory briefing whilst being accompanied by a parent/guardian.
Race
The start on Saturday will be group starts by classes, with the Senior class leading the first wave.
The remaining class will then follow after a minute.
Order of group starts:
- Senior class for 14 and 15 year olds.
- Intermediate class for 12 and 13 year olds.
- Junior class for 10 and 11 year olds.
The race will finish when the chequered flag goes out for the lead rider in the senior class at the two-hour mark.
6 Hour Race
The perfect introduction to endurance racing off-road style, favoured by most first-time riders. The 6 hour race is for solo’s or 2 man teams in the sportsman class.
For the 6 hour enduro entrants there will be a riders briefing on Sunday morning, in the main marquee. There will also be a Video of the sighting lap in the marquee on both Saturday and running continuously into Sunday for all other races.
The start of the 6 hour enduro will be a Le Mans start, (i.e. a short run to your bike from a standing start) with groups leaving in classes.
Once lined up, you will be allowed to warm up your bikes, and then all engines MUST be switched off.
12 Hour Race
The Daddy – the original race format from which the whole event takes its name, a real tester for individuals and teams alike. For solo riders, 2 and 3 man teams across all classes.

As well as giving you a chance to test out final adjustments and warm-up the joints and muscles, it will ease the wait until start time, plus provide supporters and spectators with something interesting and fun to watch…!
Open to all riders, including Youth. Contains optional extreme sections to help you sharpen your wits before the main event.
A great chance to give your bike a final tweak or just to get warmed up before your main race.
Great opportunity to test your bike's suspension and hone your skills.
RACE NUMBERS
Provision of Race Stickers
Your registration fee includes the provision of bike stickers and a transponder. When you sign in at Registration (in the Main Marquee) we will supply you with two race stickers for you to apply to your bike and one transponder regardless of whether you are a solo rider or part of a team.
We allow Any Bike and Any Tyre to accommodate all enduro riders.
Stickers must be prominently displayed – firstly on the front number board, and secondly on the left hand side of the bike, if you only have one bike. If you have more than one bike, then place one sticker on each of the front number boards only.
Next you will need to visit the Marshal Marquee to have your bike checked (scrutineering). Once it has been passed by the marshals a colour coded sticker will be applied to your bike to indicate the race you are in and whether you are a solo or team rider.
Your Race Number can be found in the sidebar to the right or by clicking the following links:
