Video of the start from Campbell - click here - the usual chaos that is the sand !!

On a drying course the West Linton enduro proved more testing than in previous years due to heavy rain over the past week. The Melville club had done their usual great job of providing a course with everything. A wee bit of woods, some sand and lots of bogs and decent hills to get up.

The usual dash from the start line through the sand pit eagerly awaited by the crowds.

Congratulations to Neil Chatham for the win managing to get 1 more lap (9) in than all the other riders.Andrew Bisset in second showing great promise in his first year in the experts managing to pip Allyn Scotland with Sean Henderson also flying on 8 laps.

Best wishes to Willie Beatty and Niall Paton Snr -who both get the Allyn Scotland AIR MILES award. It's not the airtime that hurts - it's the high speed landing. Here's to a quick recovery.
