Southern Enduro Champs 2017 - Exmoor

The Southern Enduro Champs is a new race for 2017 brought to you by the same the team behind the Transition Bikes Southern Enduro series.

It's based in woodland in Exmoor national park. This race will be one of the best in the south, the trails in Exmoor are national standard.

The race is accessible and open to all. The Fun category is perfect for first time enduro racers and the PRO/Elite category is for racers that want the title of 2017 Southern Enduro Champion!

The women's category has been split out into Seniors (20-39), Vets (over 40's) & Fun (Any age). Hopefully this will help encourage ladies to get involved with this event and the sport of enduro in general.

The race stages will be a mix of steep loamy tracks and flat out fun. There will be free camping and parking close to the large race village/finish arena.

There is also lots of options for hotels as the town of Minehead is riding distances from the venue.

On Saturday evening there will be a full licensed bar and food available on site. The bar will be in a large marquee with music and seating areas.
