Personally I have never been into endure but everybody I know who's tried it, loves it.
Mx all the way for me, be it on a lovely howling 2stroke or on the 4 banger.

You got a admit the the sound of that yz250 is suuuwweeeeeeeet
Be nice to have anywhere like either of those vies to ride local

Absolutely AWESOME Griff, that's so good!!!!!!!!!! I heard recently that a few guys have been actually testing 2-strokes, there's a lot to be said for their reliability and insane power but i guess the biggest problem is the manufacturers just want to make sure they use bikes in competition that they will then be able to sell to the public so 4-strokes still seem to be what they'll be on but I would love to see a load of 2-strokes again....

Just hearing it on full chat really takes me back to MX in the 80's and 90's when I used to go a lot, they sounded so good - Nothing like the sound at an MX GP of 40+ bikes on the line flat out waiting for the gate to drop!!

The EMX 125 (2-stroke) class ran at Matterley but the Vets / 2-Strokes i think ran on the Saturday.... You can't beat the old 500 Honda's though, Dave Thropes 89 Factory bike was amazing, I got to see it at the Vets Des Nations at Farleigh castle last year.

Actually Griff I was going to mention this years even in case you were interested in going, it's on at the end of this month!
