We are running a timekeeping format but that doesnt mean you need to keep time to have fun. I will repeat you DO NOT need to keep time or have a watch, odometer or even understand ANYTHING about keeping time for enduros to have a very fun day of trail at the Green Marble Enduro.

Now if you want to keep time great, its another level that just adds to the fun, it can be as simple as a watch and odometer or buy a fancy $400. computer and learn how to program it. If you want some help email me.

But for the average first enduro guy just come out and ride. Its as simple as this, when you sign up you get a number, that number is how many minutes your row of 4 or 5 guys are AFTER the first row.

" Key Time" is the basic start time, its usually at 8:00am say you and a friend signed up at the same time and said you wanted to ride together, they will give you guys a number for a row with 2 empty spots (same for 3 or 4 and so on), lets say # 56A and #56B that means your guys row will leave at 8:56am or 56 minutes after key time of 8am. get to the line 10 minutes before. Everybody takes off in waves or 4 or 5 one minute apart with the fast guys near the front and slow guys in the rear.

The guys on the row behind you will have #57s ( 57A, 57B, 57C, 57D, 57E) the ones in front #55. From that point just keep the #55 guys in front (except the really slow ones), and the #57s behind you, you will get the feel real quick, but if your not a Fast Fast guy you will not have to worry about going too fast in sections, just take it normal going down the roads and haul ass in the woods, take breaks when you see everybody else taking a break, and if they are all numbers in the #70s and #80s and you don't see any #50s around you behind. that's IT!!

At least for the first few enduros ride them to enjoy the trail, if you really enjoy it, it might surprize you with a trophy, but just to ride the ride is a win.

A way cool thing about enduros is that nobody is racing each other so EVERYBODY lets you pass easily, just a hoot or holler or an Engine rev and they will get over at the first safe spot. Same goes for people passing you, if you hear a guy or guys coming up from behind, next safe spot you get a chance pull over and they wont do some bitch take out move.
Throughout the day there are many rest times where the rows regroup so you ride around the same guys all day, be nice to them and they will be nice to you, for the most part its a gentlemens sport.

That is identical to the trails I Mtn. bike on in Mercer Cnty. Park, NJ. Damn I have to sweet talk the boss to race it.

Hell yeah come on out its some good stuff, we will set you up! and we will be partying right in town with the Fire Dept, club grill going strong!!! then back out Rocket for the serious stuff!

Wish I could go that's my favorite grill!

Hope all that can make it enjoy.

It was a rageing sukcess, lots of praise, many happy people all around except for the 3 guys we caught cutting the course, can you say DQ-ed. After all said and done it was fun, lots of hiking up, down and sideways on steep hills for many miles a day but the killer trail made it all worth while.


Cant wait til next year!
