HEC ALtryre Enduro 19/20 August 2023.
Live Results for Saturday -results2023\Final Result Rd 2 Enduro HEC Sat 19 Aug 23 .pdf
The Highland Enduro Club had a successful weekend of Enduro sport with 2 days of proper off road riding to greet the riders who made the trip up.
The Saturday was a bit harder with some damp bits on the course proving testing - particularly the BOG and the HILL. These were taken out for the Sunday and lap times eased a bit.
Following a lot of the 2022 course in reverse there were also some new parts added in to make the route more interesting.
It was good to see some new faces out on the course and the new "Young Guns" having a close battle all day . On Sunday Robbie Davidson won the Clubman class by 5/100 of a second just pipping Felix Beavitt after 4 tests and a days racing.
Andrew Bisset put in some very consisted tests to take the Expert win ahead of Ben Thomson and fast improving new Expert Sam Boyd .
Derek Little put in a rare appearance to take the Over 40 win on Sunday with Darren Cousins taking the win on Saturday
In the over 50's Robbie Allan put in two top performances to take the win on both days ahead of Neil Dawson - who keeps getting better with each event.
Clubman B had Alister Barr winning on Saturday and Struan Hull taking the Sunday win. Thomas Malcolm finishing 2nd on both days
Jamie Gardiner won Sportsman class on Saturday and John Weir pushed hard to take the win on Sunday.
Phil Hewitt looked on top form both days to take the win . But was less than a second ahead of Steven Clark on Saturday - in a close fought event.
Thanks to Altyre Estate for the use of the venue and the fantastic scenery (midges included). Another excellent event from Jim Mair and the HEC team - thanks for all your hard work.
