The final round of the Victorian Enduro Series was held in Beechworth over the weekend. Beechworth itself is a nice little town to spend the race weekend in, with its bakeries, breweries and if you like honey then you’re definitely in for a treat! We were here for the race though and the track was different to the last round atA�Mount Beauty, it was a fast track with more pedalling and combined with the hardpack nature of the ground it meant speeds were high. The track wasn’t overly technical but had some rock gardens with large boulders in them that kept riders on their toes.
The turnout for the race was solid but no where near as big as what we saw at Mount Beauty, as per usual the shuttles were spot on and turn around times’ good. Like Mount Buller, the race village was near the top of the track which meant plenty of encouragement for riders as they left the gate! As per the trend this season Daniel MacMunn took the Elite victory to cap off an super impressive season which he comprehensively dominated. Under 19 was taken out by Simon Harrington, full results can be found on the Alpine Gravity site.
Interesting to note some details for the next series have already been released, at this stage it looks like there will be two race runs for each rider with only the best time counting. We will bring you more information but the next Alpine event will be their downhill series.
