    This was the best racecourse in Southern California last year.

    Not a race I plan on missing. It's always a blast and the trophies are sweet (if you can manage to win one of them). This was one of the first times I rode with Tinker for a bit (like 20 seconds) and it was after several hours of racing. He got to a hill, stood up and sped off like there was no tomorrow.

    Here's a video of the new enduro course. [video=vimeo;103617202]https://vimeo.com/103617202[/video]

    The other 2 courses of the enduro will be similar to 2 of the courses used last year. One will be through the meadow and the other is essentially going down the uphill section of the 6 hour course.
