Gorrick Summer Enduros

by Jane Lucas, 16 Feb 11.

Now that our Brass Monkeys Series is over, get planning on your Gorrick Summer Enduros which are now open for ONLINE ENTRY. These are two of the most popular events in the mtb calendar:

Gorrick 100 Enduro – Bank Holiday weekend - Sunday 1 May 2011

The South's long established premier Enduro event takes place, as usual, at Swinley Forest, Berks. One of the finest areas for mountain biking in the country. You can be sure of a superb lap of the forest as usual. The challenge is not fixed by time, but by the number of 10 mile laps that you choose to ride, either 1 (Fun/Taster) 2, 3, 4, 5 or 7. You can pre-enter online until Tuesday 26th April. Entry on the day will be available at this event, but you may have to queue. See Gorrick 100 Enduro for full details.

Gorrick 12:12 Torq in your Sleep – Bank Holiday weekend – Sunday 28 August 2011

Based once again at Minley Manor, Hants with riding for Solos, Pairs or Teams (remember team members don’t have to be confirmed until the day!) over 12 hours from noon to midnight. You can expect a superb 8 mile figure of 8 course featuring the Bridge to Nowhere, a huge marquee and arena with loads of trade stands and music. Free trackside camping is available from early Saturday until Monday so why not make a weekend of it, as Quaver catering will have their marquee on site through the whole weekend. As in previous years entries will be capped, so don’t leave it too late – there is NO ENTRY ON THE DAY at this event! See Torq In Your Sleep for full details.
