Entries are now open for the Merida Brass Monkeys Enduro Series.

Whether you are a sprinter or a slogger, a good strategy, careful pacing and a little pre-event preparation will always give you a satisfying result, so race to win or race to finish, either way any level of rider, regardless of fitness, can enjoy these events.

There are both four hour and two hour age-related time slots to choose from over seven to eight mile laps, and a one hour fun event as well.
