The Ben Saville Memorial Enduro Weekend is fast approaching, with less than a month to go! The format for the event follows previous years, with a sprint enduro race on Saturday, 2nd May, and open pit youth and adult enduro practice on Sunday, 3rd May, all of which will be taking place at the Rogershill Raceway in Dorset.
Entries are open now on the ACU Sport80 website for the sprint race, with the early bird discount ending on the 16th of April. For those who haven’t raced a sprint enduro before, the day consists of a sighting lap followed by timed laps of a mixed enduro course. Riders are set off fastest to slowest in 15-second intervals, racing both the clock and their competitors. There will be approximately 8 laps throughout the day with a break in between each, making it a very sociable and relaxed day. The event is suitable for beginners with easier but slightly longer route options signposted on the lap. There is a youth class included for competitors 12 years and above as well as vet’s classes and a women’s class.

After the main race, there will be a raffle drawn in aid of the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance, with great prizes already kindly donated by Crescent Motorcycles, as well as free enduro practices from Rogershill Raceway. For riders who have the energy, the team are putting on a mini extreme event Saturday afternoon, to help raise further charity funds. Riders can book on for this on the day. Camping is welcome all weekend for riders and spectators for a £5 per night donation to the charity.
To finish out a fun-packed weekend, on Sunday, 3rd May, an open pit enduro practice will be held. Youth practice (12-16 years) will run from 9-11am. Followed immediately by adult enduro practice until 4pm. To book for the practice, please email rogershillracewaybooking@yahoo.com with the rider’s name and event (youth or adult). The track for the practice will be an extended version of Saturday’s lap to include new sections.

This year’s event will be the 7th in memory of Ben Sav, and since its commencement, over £10,000 has been raised for the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance. We appreciate everyone’s support of the event, and we cannot wait for the 2nd of May!
