Join the 2019 EMTB Forums Race Team

We will be competing in the Pedalhounds Enduro events.

Race experience required: None. I
Course type: Gravity fed courses approx 2 mins in length each.

This is a fun event with a very friendly family atmosphere, I did a couple last year and it’s a very friendly local race series. It’ll challenge you and help you develop your riding skills.

I’m looking to get a team together of 8 riders to join. No race experience is necessary. The taking part and sense of achievement that you get doing these is brilliant.

Stuff:
- EMTB Forums jersey supplies to all riders
- Ideally you’ll be able to commit at least 4 out of the 7 races
- Race fees are around £45 per race. Seems a lot but it’s a day out and very well organised and well worth it!
- I’ll be making a mini series for my channel about the races so might be some camera stuff going on!

Dates:

24th Feb Canada Heights
24th March Land of Nod
28th April Penshurst Bike Park (1)
2nd June Bareleigh Estate
30th June Penshurst Bike Park (2)
25th August Aston Hill
6th October Penshurst Bike Park (3)

With 3 of the 7 rounds nearly 200 miles away and I'm in the Midlands, this is probably better aimed at southerners. Shame.

I enjoyed your videos of those races and made me tempted to put on a number plate.

 

[Rob Rides EMTB]

First entry in! Cheers Andy @ChilternsMTB

 

[ccrdave]

My wife would like to join and i will come and cheer
Her name is Dawn Thompson

 

[R120]

I am tempted, but would only be able to do one round max - will come and support though!

 

[lhglaze]

I’m really keen for this. Is the riding stuff that is rollable?

Same here, would love to do it but its a bit far for me to come to. Maybe we could have a midlands/northern squad as well. Perhaps do the welsh gravity series.

Yes ? there’s no gaps that need clearing. They’ve deliberately made it as accessible as possible.

If this is something that's on next year...I'd be up for it! I don't have any mode of transport except push bikes and a motorbike so carrying a Levo plus gear is pretty tough!

 

[R120]

you just need to knock one of these up

When I bought my mondraker a few years ago, I just strapped the entire bike to my backpack with a shit ton of bungee. I was 80 miles from home and the ride on the motorway was so uncomfortable

You can buy trailers, but that picture of the bike carrier doesn't look to promising for a heavier e-bike. I'd be scared that my Levo would snap it and end up crushed under an 18 wheeler on the motorway

 

[Doomanic]

It would wheelie well though.

Thanks Rob, count me in!

 

[Ak178]

[Paul Mac]

All the Stages at our events are designed to be ridden by all abilities and ages. The events cater for first timers as well as seasoned racers. You will find the races well run with a really friendly atmosphere. A great day out on your bike.

 

[Doomanic]

It sounds like an awesome series, shame it's so far away.

 

[ccrdave]

@Rob Hancill do we need to book our individual places through the Pedalhounds site or have you got an EMTB Forums Team allocation pre booked with them?
