TEME VALLEY MOTODURO
27th MARCH 2011The Teme Valley club have released an update on their forthcoming Motoduro. The course has been extensively changed, and the sections with the roots that caused problems last year have been left out. This should allow the circuit to flow better and avoid the “one line” situation in certain places. Whilst the regular Enduro boys had no problems, it was a bit tricky for the riders on MX bikes, so to give them a bit more excitement this year, we have included an uphill “fireroad” climb through the woods nearly ¾ mile long! Top speed recorded today was 55mph on a 300 KTM XC when we were setting the course out! Sorry but there are no off camber slippery woodland sections or big holes full of freezing water though! Also unlike Coney Green farm, where the Fast Eddy is running this weekend, the track is not worn out, full of 4x4 ruts and rubbish, and is only used once a year for this event.
As an added attraction for the spectators, the land owner, Bob, has again included a large pile of rocks and some telegraph poles, which he has used to construct additional optional “Extreme” sections for the serious Enduro riders, who may think the other special sections are too easy!
The event is run under AMCA rules and insurance with a full medical crew on standby. Adult classes will be as in AMCA motocross i.e.MX1/MX2 in Experts, Seniors, Juniors and a “Sportsman” class for the less competitive riders. All will receive trophies for top 3 in each class. These will run from 11am till 12 noon. Interval 90min. Second leg-1.30pm till 2.30pm finish. The Interjunior classes will run after each adult race and they will have two 45 minute races.
The date is March 27th 2011 at Clifton on Teme, Worcestershire. The track is between the Church and Church House Farm, just on the outskirts of the village. Postcode WR6 6DJ. Grid reference: SO 717615.
