Mood: PENSO POSITIVO....SEMPRE!!
done my first Enduro race in Italy...
And was a great fun....
temperature was low and it was wet, muddy in some sections looking like hell!! ..It was actually looking like UK!!!

It is a great way to keep your senses sharp and your body fit for the next road bike season... I have been racing Motocross for years but this was the first proper enduro race and I did really well.. This is something I may get to do more often than MX, as less risky (well in my opinion...) for a 40 years old than MX racing.

Honda CRF450 is the way to go..the bike is great and the power more than enough in all situations. I agree with Wyle than KTM is a great racing enduro machine, but Honda is way more easy to ride...and nicer!

My duke is in the garage now...still with a UK plate... I am dealing with the italian DVLA now to register the Bike and is a nightmare....

Here some pictures of Brogins enduro rider....

Ciao a tutti e BUON ANNO !!!!

Looking good Fabio, Looks like the mountain at Cadwell was useful practice

wish you had mentioned Enduro when you were here I could have hooked you up with a ex Ducati club racer that did a 12hr Enduro back in June

Lets hope it is less risky and you don't go hurting yourself

Happy New Year

Would that have been the 12hr enduro at Whaddon on the 4th June?

Nice one, yea those shots really do look like the UK roads at the moment.
Just brought myself a CCM 644 ( English bike, none of this Italian rubbish )Supermoto for the winter. Great fun.

Take care Fab

Hey Fabio ... some style mate ... well done.

Just been up to meet Skidlids and Chippy for a cuppa and to collect some red mirrors for Brenda's new 748R.

Everyone sends their love and, at the last count, there are about 27 of us heading to Firenze for your housewarming ... are all the bedrooms finished yet?
