Hampshire Police H&H or Enduroland? - 8th August

[G]

The Hampshire police MCC Hare and Hounds I'd mentioned elsewhere is more conveniently located for the South East lot:

However, enduro land, which is at Lemmington Spa on the same day has some advantages.
https://www.enduroland.co.uk/Events.htm *
You get longer on track, with less urgency to complete laps as quickly as possible.
Also allows more of the 'social' aspect I think Blue was hoping for.
This one should certainly be better for newbs that haven't ridden on any tracks (ie I know blue has done Tonymoto, but others might be better here) and offers the option to swap bikes etc.
I doubt this will be an amazing track for enduroland (their home one is pretty nice, with a decent variation), but generally they're not bad.
£40 for a non-membership day ticket is less than the Hare & Hounds.

I'm happy to do either.
Lifts from reading for a donation towards van costs if anyone's interested.


* More details hopefully on the main page when they update - I'm presuming it's not a 'prebook' day or anything.

I'd be tempted, but enduroland is a bloody long way from Portsmouth, hmmm.

While my van isn't that fast/efficient, people are welcome to chuck bikes in there to save some money (if not getting up early) as it's probably fairly 'on the way' - should be able to get six dirt bikes in there easily enough.
Also welcome to sleep on my floor/sofa the night before, though not sure it's worth it for the time saved. Could even look at camping up there, but not sure they offer it for that weekend.

I would come if my bike worked

Enduroland is a hare and hounds style marked out course, there are plenty of fast people there - just as fast as you'll meet at an actual enduro generally.

However, if you're wanting a bit of competition with people you know, then it's going to be better as you can meet at the end of a lap, while you tend to get out of kilter a bit in a Hare and Hounds, then not meet each other again.

<shrugs>, I'm happy enough either way .

Multijoy and myself could well be tempted by the lift to Enduroland - assuming the entry fee is per bike rather than per person? And I reckon I'd probably be the slowest by a long way

Meh, if you guys want to go to Enduroland, then it's fine by me ... there will always be another enduro (I am not overly hungry to do one, but would do one)!!

A bit further away, but this looks interesting... '5 out of 5' difficulty wise they say, must be done in teams of 2 due to being 6 hours and nasty terrain.

Though, looking at some of the youtube footage, hmmm, maybe could do with getting some more recent practice in - looks quite gnarly!

Maybe next year, then.

Think I might just do the Hare and hounds for ease, now.

I phoned up about this today it has been canceled

Bah - I sent an email asking if they were taking late entries, but no reply.
