Enduro World Series Round One: Punta Ala, Jerome Clementz's Race
Well you can imagine all you want but the truth is that Enduro is a very different animal to DH. Lots more pedalling and short steep climbs during the stages. Gear selection is a lot more important as well. If you are in the wrong gear before you come to a sudden climb then you can kiss a few seconds goodbye straightaway.

Enduro World Series Round One: Punta Ala, Race Day!
I dunno what it is but the old boys seem more suited to Enduro than the young lads. In our series here the 30+ lads are almost always faster than the 19-29s. Maybe a bit of patience and thinking is rewarded more in Enduro than DH?

The New Banshee Rune - One Bike to Rule Them All
Fucking truth!
@the medic just so you know we literally havent had any nice weather since i made my last comment. Its 7 degrees and pissing rain again as it has done all of april and May. Ive been home 6 months now and have not seen one sustained period of good weather. Cattle are still indoors because land is too wet and there is no grass growth. Its may!!!

First Ride: Santa Cruz Bronson Carbon - 650B Ripper
So what you're saying EnduroManiac, and correct me if i'm wrong, is that really little people are wealthier than regular sized people? Interesting.
