Northern Enduro Championship

[peterpai]

Dates and location:
7/8 June Payao
12/13 July Utharadit
9/10 August Pitsanulok
12/13 September Chiang Mai

As events are held in the rainy season, you can expect some difficult riding. But the sections are relatively short, and waiting times quite long.
Farangs are very welcome, and for newcomers it's a great way to meet Thai racers and to connect to the Thai offroad scene.
Classes: pro Open - Open - Lightweight 2T 125/4T250 - VIP over 35 - VIP over 45 - as well as 6 different classes for "underbone" a.k.a. "Honda dream on steroids"

after the ardous event in chiang rai where a jet ski would probably have got a quicker time than a yzf. the championship returned in style( thai style) to phayao where waiting times and scorching heat aside, a pretty good event was held with over 130 bikes present. trails were interesting and varied with over an hour of competitive racing.

some changes to the upcoming dates include uttaradit delayed until the 2-3 august. phitsanulok until the 14-15th of september and the final round in chiang mai sometime mid-october. 16-17 of the top of my head but could be wrong.

if anyone fancies coming along they are fun events just as long as you take into account these are thai run thai events. so bring along a good reserve of patience and a sense of fun and they can be a right blast.

well after a riding masterclass from shayan. thailands no.2 motocrosser, who stole the show by blitzing everones times,and with a touch of the usual controversy, the championship now moves on to mae hong son on the 7th/8th november. with most of the classes winners for the year already decided a " fun" event was promised to me by the organiser whatever that might mean!
so anyone who wants a fun weekend away, gps tracks, or even a spot of racing, why not come along. entry fee is 600baht.
cheers.
