Team REME hosted its annual Natterjack Enduro at Eelmoor Camp, a venue last used in 2016. This was the location for the British Enduro Championship showdown where this yearās champions would be crowned.
Danny McCanney did exactly what he needed to do to wrap up his second British Enduro Championship in a row on the first day by taking the overall win which meant he couldnāt be caught in the Championship standings!
Alex Snow was on top form and he took home two very good results (2-2) and even held the lead for a while on Sunday after McCanney made some costly mistakes in one of the opening tests!
Alexās results were good enough to give him and Gas Gas second in this yearās championship!
Dan Mundell was flying early on Saturday with the opening test win but a big crash on test two set him back a long way.
He carried on to score valuable points and also rode well on day two to finish third and card another podium to cap his year off.
Despite missing round two due to injury, Mundell amassed enough points to finish third in this yearās British Enduro Championship!
Jack Edmondson rode day one with his injured wrist to score enough points so that he could claim the E2 British title and claim fourth overall in the Championship.
Matt Bayliss picked up the pieces with BEC regulars having a disastrous day one and finished in third which was a great result.
Alex Walton was fourth on day one and sixth on day two while Will Hoare, Junior Super Enduro World Champion, was fifth day one and seventh on day two.
In the Experts, Aaron Gordon stormed to two victories on his MRS Sherco and in doing so, secured the Expert British title and Expert E2 along with it. He was also best Under 23 Expert!
Harry Edmondson was his nearest championship rival but struggled with illness over the weekend. He still managed second on day one but retired on day two.
On day one Henry Yardley stormed to third overall while Richard Ely was fourth. Ricky Wiggins finished fifth overall and was first E3.
On day two Wiggins upped his game and finished second overall which was a fantastic result for him.
Richard Ely always loves the muddier and tougher conditions which showed in his result – third overall in the Experts. Yardley was fourth while Charlie Chater broke into the top five!
Jordan Ridgway made a return to the enduro scene and was rewarded with sixth on day two! In the Clubman class, James Palmer did the double and claimed the British Clubman Championship.
He will be very pleased with that after a consistent year which saw him near the front of the field at every event. Matthew Harries was second on day one but slipped back a bit on day two into fourth.
Jac George filled Harriesā boots on day two and finished second which complimented his sixth place on day one. Alan Morrison was third on day one while Josh Kirby took third on day two. Ross Kerr was fifth day one and Jacob James rounded out the top five on day two.
In the ever-competitive Over 40 class, it was Andrew Edwards who showed his power yet again by winning both days and taking the title away with him too. Andrew Reeves was second on day one while Vincent Harker rounded out the top three.
On day two Gas Gas UK importer John Shirt was on form and finished second to Edwards with Reeves coming home in third. The Over 50 class saw the wins shared by Scotsman Richard Hay and Manxman Russel Millward.
Day one went to Hay but Millward thrived in the wetter conditions to win the final day of the year!
Gary McCoy from Devon finished his night shift and came to the event and still managed two third-placed finishes in a competitive class so credit where it is due. Karl Greenall was fourth both days.
