Event
5th Sept 2010 at Lane
End. A 6 Hour Endurance Extravaganza
Open To Individuals (Iron man) Or Multi Rider Teams!
Please note that AMCA
registration is mandatory for this year, so please register beforehand.
Alternatively download AMCA
Registration Form and present the completed form on the day along
with your payment cheque (£15).
Note
to all Riders: If you feel you are not up to doing the event as an 'ironman'
entry and you don't have any friends taking part, then please feel free
to either post on our forum (link above), the TBM
or KTMUK
forums asking for like minded riders to form a 'team'. This will make
it cheaper for all involved and more enjoyable! Alternatively send an
email to the chairman and he can help you get in touch with a spare 'team
mate'.
This is a competition,
therefore all riders have to be registered with the AMCA prior
to racing.
Event entry will close on the Thursday
before the event. Any riders thereafter will effectively be 'on
the day riders' and due to increased admin work load will attract
a £10 premium on the entry fee.
As time is limited for unregistered
riders they need to get their forms, payment and photo into the
AMCA asap!
In the last 7 days we will issue
'temporary numbers' to allow registration , however any rider
going this route will have to bring the registration form, photo
and payment to the event prior to racing.
Late entries & temporary
AMCA numbers - can be obtained by emailing event
admin
Don't forget that if you book three
events with us at one time we will pay your
AMCA registration costs, which will reduce the overall
cost of competing.

The
Club History: C.H.E.C is a small off road motorcycle club dedicated
to running Enduro and Hare & Hound style
events, using the area called the Chiltern Valley.
This broad area runs from Oxford in the West, going South to Marlow, High
Wycombe and Lane End, across to Wendover and back to Oxford.
Many of you will have ridden parts of the RUPP called the Ridge Way at
the foot of the Chiltern Hills, its good motorcycling land, not quite
up to Welsh standards, but never the less, up to 550ft of elevation, plenty
of large forest areas together with "set a side" land and good
road communications. Not bad considering we are only 25 miles as the crow
flies from the centre of London.
This certainly is an area of outstanding
natural beauty and yet is often overlooked by us motorcyclists and outdoor
types as just being too inhabited and too close to London to find suitable
venues. How wrong we are. There are a number of sites out there and plenty
of potential sites, mainly due to the large amount of private ownership
of the forests. These are regularly used for sporting game shooting, in
particular pheasant and partridge, which leaves these areas almost unused
for 8 months of the year.
The club mainly puts on Hare & Hound style events as these suit the
club and its riders. Fun 3 hour and 4 hour events, often with a break
in the middle for lunch and then back the opposite direction for the remainder
of the time. It certainly puts a smile on every ones face. The lunch break
allows the novice rider to rejoin after the regulatory mars bar and hamburger,
oh don’t forget the coffee ( we are dedicated competitors you know
) and lets the more expert fettle his bike for the next 2 hours of racing.
Solos and quads it doesn’t matter, young, old, female or male, we
have them all. Mainly 30’s to 50’s and mainly solos, mainly
sportsman or clubman standard, the name of the game is to enjoy your day,
be safe, and not be hassled by the MotoX red mist rider ( deeply frowned
on by the organizers who have been known to have a quiet word with a slightly
over enthusiastic rider ). Fun and enjoyable racing together with up to
4 hours competition time all for £ 45.00 is excellent value as well.

March Lane End. Tryout day. Photos+
Report + video lap!
Tyre
Rule: Following
our post race meeting last night, the directors decided that we
would be removing the tyre rule with immediate
effect. Just to clarify there will be no points penalty or
payment for riders using non trials tyre on rear for the next event
at Sevenoaks. This change is due to the club listening to riders
and also to align ourselves with other local clubs who have also
removed this ruling.
Good
news everyone!
CHEC is back in action with
a new 'on-line' registration and payment system. Some steps need
tidying up but it's all working (download guide
to registration).
