Message: [QUOTE="Michelle, post: 439550, member: 16598"] For those that compete in harescrambles & enduros, when did you feel ready to start? I don't feel I'm ready, but am wondering when I will be? I've been told by someone that I should, but think that I am waaaay too slow (mobile chicane I don't want to be ;)) I'm having a hard time being married to a race-head and being pit bimbo isn't really my thing (I get too side-tracked talking to be bothered looking after Henk & his bike). I've tried trailriding races, but end up stopping after one loop. I was going to joke to the person that next year I was looking at competing in enduros, just to see the look of horror on his face, when he told me I should start. I guess I have a preconceived notion of you should be able to finish the race, not fall at all, and end up about midpack. (yeah, yeah, totally unrealistic and there's no shame in coming last). I'm using you lot as a sounding board & wondering how you all knew when you were ready to start? And CJ (and others who know me), wipe the coffee off your monitor, sorry for making you laugh so much ;) lol (no, I'm not sure about anything about the moment, but am about to give up looking for another female to go riding with, it just doesn't seem a happening thing for me at the moment). BTW, the next race wouldn't be until January any way, so I've got heaps of time to think & stew about it & then chicken out. Cheers in advance Michelle [/QUOTE]
