The Dyfi Enduro 2011 results are out. You can download the spreadsheet here. I’m pretty pleased with my placing just inside the top 100. Everyone else that I ride with did really well too. Jon came in 18th (11th in his category) in a time of 3:07:13 – The winner Neal Crampton did it in...
The official photos from the 2011 Dyfi Enduro are out, but I’ve been seeing lots of others too so here’s a round up of some photo galleries from the Dyfi Enduro 2011. Right Time Right Place – The Official photographer of the Dyfi Enduro 2011 MBNW– A nice album showing the Dyfi Enduro riders, the...
As promised in my 2011 Dyfi Enduro Race Report, here’s some of the video I shot on my GoPro HD whilst riding the Dyfi Enfuro yesterday. Enjoy.
The Dyfi Enduro 2011 came around quicker than expected but the day dawned cool, windy but most importantly dry as a bone and it had been that way for weeks. The trails were set to be fast, dry and dusty and all looked set for an amazing day. I gave Jon a lift to Machynlleth...
First up, it’s the Dyfi Enduro on Sunday. I’ve known about this for months, but that doesn’t mean that me or my bike is ready for it. However, I can’t get out of it now, I’ll just have to do the best I can and aim to enjoy it. It won’t be helped by the...
We did our customary pre-ride around the Dyfi Enduro course yesterday in what can only be described as perfect conditions. Warm, sunny and without any significant rain for a while the trails were in the main dry and dusty. Riders were thin on the ground, probably because it was Easter Sunday, but Dave, Dave, Simon,...
Although we live in West Wales with the beach and sea to the west of us and a backdrop of the Cambrian Mountains behind us, most of my running and even my cycling is on fairly flat courses. Obviously the mountain biking isn’t, but my quick road bike routes usually go from home and stay...
Just over a week to go now until the Dyfi Enduro 2011 so we were once again checking out some of the trails on our evening ride last night. This time we started at the northern end of the forest to ride some of the trails we rarely ride. Dave Reed couldn’t make it so...
Amazingly it’s only a couple of weeks until the dreaded Dyfi Enduro, an enduro style mountain bike race in the Dyfi Forest. I’m supposed to be doing it, along with many of the other local mountain bike riders, but after last night recce of some of the trails, I’ve decided that neither me or my...
Since getting my new Scott Addict bike just over a week ago I haven’t yet really got to grips with it. Any rides that I’ve done around a known course have all been slower than I’d done previously. I knew it wasn’t the bike, so it had to be either me, or the set-up, or...
