Southeast Triple Crown Enduro: Fall 2017 - Preview by gojammedia

After two successful consecutive cold weather seasons with the Downhill Southeast Series, Neko Mulally continues to influence the grassroots racing scene with an announcement of a three race enduro series across three states, North Carolina, Tennessee, and South Carolina. Windrock Bike Park, Beech Mountain Resort, and the Cranksgiving crew are joining forces bringing three awesome venues and three enduros this fall, the Southeast Triple Crown Enduro.

I know the folks at Beech Mountain very well, and the crew from Cranksgiving has been timing all of our Downhill Southeast Series races. Each of us was planning to hold an enduro race this fall, so it made sense to work together and offer points towards a three race series. The timing will be awesome, and riders will be pleased with race courses that suit an enduro bike perfectly.—Neko Mulally

Format:
Each race will be held on a Sunday and feature four or five timed stages of racing. Course maps will be released the week of the race along with GoPro footage of each stage as a course preview (Note: the Beech Mountain Venue course map has been released and can be seen here). Race courses are designed to feature the best trails at each venue. Fly by timing will be used for every stage.

Points:
Each venue will use the same categories and timing crew to collect points towards an overall ranking for the series. Riders will accumulate points at each race towards their overall ranking for the series.

Other Stuff:
• Fast Bike Industries will be offering a suspension tuning clinic in the morning prior to each race. Winners of the event will receive FBI's suspension services.
• Finish on the podium and receive gift cards courtesy of Worldwide Cyclery.

3 x 75 for the series is $225 I don't have right now with a baby otw, plus travel time, hotel etc. Wish for a package deal for the 3 @ ~$160-180 ish would seem legit. Really want to race hardtail class, cause I hate myself, SS Hardtail too

$75 per race seems kinda rediculous. Hopefully more affordable Enduro events will pop up soon.

This also includes the$35 lift ticket.
