Hi mate

I have done the Yorkshire Enduro a few years ago and found it quite hard, but, I am a steady rider and aim to finish not to win - I didn't do either when I entered

The CRM is more than capable, depends if your body is too. If its sloppy it will be energy sapping, if its dry it will still be hard but do-able.

I would recommend a Rally, Long Distance Trial or Hare & Hounds as an easier intro to competitions if you haven't done one before.

I've also done this but on a KTM 400. It can be a slog (as most enduros in Yorkshire / north east are). I'd do what Rich suggests and do some ralleys first or even a Hare & Hounds. Go for the sportsman class before trying the clubmen class

Have fun and don't be tempted to try to keep up with others - take it at your own pace. Just make sure you have geared the CRM down and have newish tyres as knobbly as you can get away with.

well i completed the course!!!!!!
pushed it a bit on the time trail and had an off which screwed things up a bit, then missed one check by 3 minuets due to getting stuck in 3 feet of slop! other than that it was great, realy enjoyed the event. i think mine was the only crm entered and it ran spot on all day.

Have a look here, at 4 minutes in to the video there's a CRM - is it you?
