Events Presents: A Sucker Punch evolution SUNDAY 29th JANUARY 2017 The Format: The Sucker Punch Extreme Enduro has become a superb, must do, Extreme Enduro over the last 4 years that offers all the riders a superb challenge that is Tough yet most importantly, achievable. The event sells out overnight and leaves riders with a warm sense of satisfaction when they see the chequred flag. The venue, in the Bala woodlands of Llandrillo Forest is simply fantastic for this event and a having thought about this for a while, an exciting Sucker Punch spin off has been developed by the WOR team. THE NAIL BITER is here, consisting of two sections in the day, A qualifier that matters and a run of 3 timed special tests in the haunting stream section of the Sucker Punch woodlands that will create a fantastic challenge for all riders throughout the classes. The Qualifier: 9am till 11am. A straight 2 hour Hare and Hounds Enduro that will be on a course of around 7 miles per lap consisting of a mix of normal enduro and hard enduro terrain. Starting in classes, the riders will do their best to finish as high up the rankings as possible to ensure a good start is waiting for them later on in the day.... The NAIL BITER Qualifier does count in its own right as the lap scores from the 2hr race will come into play for the final results. Here is how that works, Lets say the winner does 7 laps in the Qualifier, the 7 laps will then equate to 7 minutes being removed from the riders Overall Special test times from the Afternoons Extreme Special tests, 6 laps= 6 minutes and so on...What this will ensure is that all riders push hard to do their best in the qualifier knowing that a lap means something very important later on in the day...
Riders will do their 3 tests almost back to back, A short rest after each test to change goggles, gloves, have a drink etc and a then a quick shuffle from the holding area back to the start line will see this happen... Once all the special tests are done its then a case of working out all of the results, riders head home eating their nails waiting to to see who set the best times to win, and by 6pm that same afternoon - we will have the results online ...(we hope to know an overall winner before they leave the venue) The Venue: The venue, in the Bala woodlands of Llandrillo Forest is simply fantastic for this event . North Wales' finest enduro forests will once again lay on a challenging and totally enjoyable course for the masses. The Media: WOR will once again guarantee post event media with Screen, film, web coverage and of course the national motorcycle press reports. The Entries: Only 100 Entries are available for the event and they are now open and available on this page with a non returnable £15 deposit (doctors note excluded) @ £75 per rider inc VAT.
