Leaping Log Enduro Series
We have this little document put together by Murray Cook that is a brief explanation of what the races are and how they go.
**************************************************************
Leaping Log Enduro Series –
Format
Based upon traditional Enduro
format
3 riders per minute at start
(may vary at promoters discretion depending upon weather conditions).
Riders shall be allocated Rider
Numbers at Riders Briefing.
Race Schedule set by each individual
club, but generally schedule is reasonably easy.
Race schedule shall be posted
in the pit area by Riders Briefing.
At the Start Area, the official
Timeclock shall be visible for both the riders and the Starters. This
Timeclock relates to the Race Schedule, however, the time displayed
on this clock does not always represent ‘real time’, often it may
be adjusted to ‘funny time’ at term used to describe adjusted time.
It is riders responsibility
to ensure that they present themselves to the Start Area at their allotted
start time as noted in the Race Schedule. Starts later than 2 minutes
after allotted time shall be penalised (60 points per minute).
If a rider does start late,
their Race Schedule shall be adjusted to the later time.
No time cards are used in this
series.
Once leaving the Start Area,
riders are on ‘Trail Time’, only the Special Test is timed and the
cumulative total of the Special Test shall determine the riders position
within their class and for Outright position.
On the first lap, riders are
not timed on the Special Test as this lap is treated as ‘Sighting’
or practice lap.
The total number of laps completed
during the race may vary between events depending upon length and difficulty
of the course and weather conditions.
Expert, Clubman, Over 35’s
and Pony Express classes shall complete all laps.
125cc 2 stroke/250cc 4 stroke
13-15 year class shall complete 2 laps, sit out 2 laps and complete
2 more laps (this may vary depending upon event duration).
Riders entered in competitive
classes are required to complete all laps. Failure to do so shall constitute
a DNF.
At Special Tests, riders shall
start at the direction of the Special Test Starters, generally 1 every
20 seconds. Riders are not required to stop at the finish (flying finish)
but it is important that the finishers are able to identify the riders
(yelling out your number is advisable).
Special test times shall be
posted in the pit area throughout the course of the day.
Pony Express class shall be
2 riders to a team riding either 1 or 2 bikes. Riders shall identified
by either ‘A’ or ‘B’ on their riding number.
Individual Special Test times
shall not be recorded for each Pony Express team. The cumulative total
of both ‘A’ and ‘B’ riders within a team shall determine the
class position.
Junior competitors in 50cc, 65cc and 85cc classes compete on a separate course in either a natural terrain MX style or Sprint format.

Rnd. 1 Leaping Log - Abandoned

* Rescheduled to 24 October 2010. confirmed *
Rnd 1 Leaping Log, WWMCSC to be held at Tumut.
First round will be hosted by the Wagga Wagga MCSC at Tumut. Same track as last year, about 11 km's out of Tumut on the Snowy Mountains Hwy towards Talbingo. If you hit Blowering Dam you've gone too far! We'll get a map up for the out of towners. Wagga MCSC should have the gateway marked, keep an eye out for signs.

2009 Riverina Interclub Challenge Presentation Night
Wanabrook Motocross / Leaping Log Enduro / Golden Wheels Dirt Track - Presentation Night Cancelled
2009 Riverina Interclub Challenge Presentation Night
Hello All,
At last night’s committee meeting the unfortunate decision was made to cancel the 2009 series presentation night which was to be held on the 7th of December at Wagga Boat Club. A vote was taken by all clubs involved and the decision was unanimous to not proceed with the evening. Due to a lack of numbers the committee felt the correct decision was made. The cancellation was not taken lightly and all involved were very disappointed with the outcome. The date unfortunately clashed with SuperX at Canberra of which many people are attending as well as the Snowy Ride and a number of other race meetings. The committee attempted to re-schedule the date with many suggestions but in the end it was too difficult to find a suitable date which did not clash with other events. All eligible riders will still receive their trophies. All trophies will be distributed through club representatives to be presented at each individual club’s end of year function.
For further information please contact your relevant club representative.
Regards,
Phil Meline
Secretary

Holbrook 6 Hour - Are you ready??
Some footage from track-marking - AWESOME hill climb
A great effort by those individuals who made the effort to travel over the last couple of weekends and mark the track. Following a mix of well used single track, some recently discovered single track that some of us had forgotten and also brand new sections specially selected on foot.
There is some "Seat of your Pants Downhill, Hold on Betsy you aint stoppin till the Bottom, Shiny side Up or Shiny Side Down"
The Entry Numbers have exceeded what I thought would be a minimum and that's great.
Lets hope we get favourable weather - it's looking like clearing showers, high teens to twenty

This will give you acurate directions and distances from either Wagga Wagga or Holbrook ... once you get into Jerraluen Rd., just keep driving until you hit the end of the road, the track is on the left hand side, right at the end.

2009 NSW Junior Enduro
After initially not having a round of the 2009 NSW Junior Enduro Championship, Holbrook Motorcycle Sports Club now have two rounds of the series. The event will be held on the Queens Birthday Long weekend 6th and 7th of June. The club is running it as a double header weekend with round 1 on Saturday and round 2 on Sunday. The Junior Enduro Championship will be held at Bendemeer MVRG.
The club has also negotiated with the Enduro committee to begin Saturdays round
at lunch time giving competitors more time to travel to the venue. Sundays round will begin early to allow for competitors to get an early start on travel home. This will help competitors and their families who will be travelling long distances.
The club is very excited to be running a double header for this event.
Holbrook Motorcycle Sports Club is keen to encourage junior participation in motorsport particularly Enduros.
