Message: [QUOTE="KTM Mike, post: 1219420, member: 22658"] This is a bit off topic from where this thread has gone so far....but that hasnt stopped me before... Somewhere I recall F&S asking for some input on getting more riders from FES events into the "adult" enduros. Here is an idea - what about what is essentially a "FES Transfer Class" 16 or older, must have raced at least 1 FES event within past X years, can ride in FES Transfer for a maximum of X (?) events or X years. If a rider does not meet that "eligibility" criteria, they must enter a "regular" D-14 class. Make the FES transfer class available at a limited specified number of events each year, where maybe they run a shorter course, or one with cut offs for them. Have their series have fewer events in it than the regular classes/series. ie - like this year we have 10/7, run the FES Transfer class at say 6 of those 10, with 2 drops. Otherwise, treat this class just like any other class in D-14. Same speed average etc. Just a thought....I am pretty sure such a class would see my son Mitch in it next year. You could promote it at the FES events. My guess is you would likely see a number of the adult riders doing only FES events step up to these. The adult classes often have the largest number of entries in the FES events (some of which, but not all, is a result of them riding with a kid...but it seems to me there are a number of "solo" adult riders in these events.)
