This weekend saw Eastridge in Shropshire, UK play host to the 5th and final round of the 2013 UK Gravity Enduro series.
The venue was a nice mix of trail types and had short and sweet stages and climbs. The riders liked it, the weather held out despite some damning weather reports at the start of the weekend and it was a good end to a top UK season of enduro.
Have a look at the photos below to get an idea of the weekend. UK enduro is looking good at the moment and 2014 should be even better!
the tracks werent as long as Inerleithen or fast as Dyfi but some decent DH, fun steep and loose.
And the weather helped it was mostly sunny some of the previous rounds had been a bit extreme- it got down to -8C at afan overnight, and I had ice in my camelback tube, I got caught in a bonkers thunder hail storm at Inners, the mud jammed up my front wheel and sent me OTB at Dyfi.
the crowd at the finish were ace; horns , mexican waves and plenty of banter, Parr on the PA........
(and as a Kona fanboy nice to see Al take the series win!)
anyway, top weekend, top tracks (if short) top banter, top lads. No mention of Joe's final run in his special outfit?
