Get ready for the Annual “The Dudes of Hazzard” Enduro to be held in Kinlochleven, Scotland, this November the 16th/17th. Building on the success of last years “This is Enduro Now” race the boys have been hard at work to make the 2013 edition one for the record books.

What is “The Spirit of Enduro World Champs 2013”?

If you are new to the sport of Enduro then basically it will be stage racing where you pedal up the hills at a leisurely pace that is non timed, and then race down the hills under timed conditions. All the downhill stage times are then added up to give you your final time for the days racing.

For the Dudes Enduro other aspects of your biking and sportsman skills will be tested to prove who really captures the essence of a day out on the bikes. Culminating as the “Spirit of Enduro World Champion”.

Where will it be?

Kinlochleven is just north of Glen Coe and just south of Fort William, nestled tightly in the mountains. Beside the sea, there is a nice moist air that remains mild for most of the winter providing a perfect location for winter enduro racing. The ground consists of granite rock that, although loose to move on, is very grippy in all conditions.

There is a Co-op shop in the town for the essentials and plenty of accommodation to be found while searching the googles.

Saturday Night Party?

Cut Media (formerly MTBcut) will be hosting the Saturday night party in Kinlochleven. With a showcase of the best films about and some juice and tunes to chat over the days events.
