By Team TMX on 15th Mar 19
The first round of the 2019 Ecosse XC Scottish Hare & Hounds Championship, sponsored by Rock Oil, Wulfsport, Michelin and Drysdale Motorcycles, gets underway on Sunday, March 31. It will also host the first of the 10-round Northern Youth Enduro championship.
Running at Tyninghame Links, Dunbar, a venue that proved so popular for the clubs three-round motocross series earlier this year, the event will cater for both youth and adult solo riders. The five-mile-plus long track will incorporate elements of the well-harrowed motocross track, with flowing woodland and rough open land in the mix.
This will offer plenty of passing places and fast sections to give all levels of riders the chance to have a competitive and fun day out. Giving a huge boost to the Enduro youth sector, and making it more accessible to novice riders.
Ecosse XC and the team behind the Northern Youth Enduro, have secured insurance which will allow youngsters from as young as six years of age to compete at the event on Autos. The only stipulation is that both Auto and 65cc riders must be accompanied on the track by a riding parent or grand-parent.
