Registration is now open for the XTM MTB Enduro on Saturday October 8 – a four-hour race taking in the technical riding around the Army training land of Gibraltar Barracks, Surrey.

Now in its second year, the enduro weaves through the forest trails of Hawley Woods, made for fast racing, combined with technical hazards and speedy hills.

The short 7km route makes for a spectator-friendly event and increases the chance for more riders to complete the final lap. Entries can be made solo or as a pair, with the aim to complete as many laps as possible in the four hours.

The £25 entry fee includes chip timing, with on-the-day results and free digital photographs that can be downloaded from  the website. The event village will also offer coffee shops, food, FGS recovery, massage and a free bike mechanic service. Prizes will be provided by Cycle Surgery.
