Summer 2010
Weather wise its that time of year when you need to pick carefully the time of day you ride. The trails are dusty, the rio Almanzora dry and the winter overgrowth of vegetation is now all but gone making for some fantastic riding.
The first part of the 2010 racing calendar is now behind us and Einat has made a solid start to the year with firsts at Cieza and at Velefique. Points wise in Almeria she is well on her way to a podium spot in September on the Circuit Prov Almeria. (Which is a series of 3 races to decide prov champions).

Its easy to take things for granted and become complacent with your surroundings but spending time with a couple of clients recently has opened my eyes again to exactly how good the trails are here and what terrific back country they allow you to access. Both the weather and the trails are in fine form and the last rain has passed until winter.
Congratulations to all the Brits that competed in the Penas Negras (El Ejido) Enduro, a special mention to Mark Fidler who gave a fine performance finishing 4th over all and 2nd in his category.

March 2010
Well the clocks have gone forward and the Enduro season is upon us, Einats had a great start this year taking firsts at both Velez Rubio and Mazzaron.
The beginning of March saw gales and storms of a like not seen for 40 years, fortunately they only lasted a couple of days. The weather at the moment is more stable, day time temperatures are creeping up, the nights are drawing out, trails are dry and firm and we have got the urge to get the bivvy bags out.

January 2010
The end of December beginning of January has given relatively dry cool weather with the odd day of rain in the valley and snow on the higher ground from around 1500mtrs. All the trails are rideable and super grippy at the moment and we have even managed to make a short video of one of our favourite descents during this patch of stable weather.
We have a new family/couples orientated accommodation option available this month. (See web page for details and price)
Enduro wise just Velez Blanco on the 21st of March open for entry at the moment. This is an excellent event offering both a short(30km)or a longer(50km)course classed with a high fitness level and a medium technical level. Details at www.brujobike.es.
Stay healthy, eat smart,
Ride hard and chase the sun
