Bikeradar 2009 - Whyte Enduro Success
DVATC made a good turn out at the first Whyte Enduro that took place at the Bikeradar festival at Donnington park on the 30th/31st May 2009. We had a total of 15 riders enter the event in the form of 5 pairs of riders enter the 12 hour event and 5 riders enter the 4 hour solo event.
Building on last years success in the Sleepless in the Saddle 24 hour event the DVATC were successful again in this event with a win in the 12 hour male pairs competitive category for Mark and Phil and also a win for Russ in the male 4 hour solo fun category. Russ also managed to win a brand new Whyte E120 bike in the event raffle!
In the male 4 hour solo category Tom put in a good effort against some stiff competition to finish 5th. Oli and John did well in their first 12 hour enduro and finished 4th in the male 12 hour category closely followed by Ian and Martin, Gareth and Steff, Richard and Dave who finished in 6th, 7th and 8th respectively.
