    Midwest Enduro – Season Finale

    So, I have finally completed my first ‘full’ Racing series of enduro with Midwest. My final stats may not read that favourably but the end result for me is extremely positive and will be back again next year with a vigour that only experience and getting out of your comfort zone can give you.

    Charlie’s Racing – Round 2

    Having had such a fault ridden start to my racing ‘career’ getting a DNS (Did Not Start) in the first round it was not without some trepidation that I returned to Chavenage Farm in Tetbury for the second round of the Midwest Enduros.

    Midwest Racing Enduro – Round One

    There is no point trying to hold any of you in any anticipation whatsoever, to build up to the grand result of my first ever endure race. As I have stated before what I really desperately wanted to achieve was avoiding the DNF (Did Not Finish), this I did handsomely by one letter – my…

    Charlie’s Enduro Debut

    With race day approaching I had a few things to do to get the RMX250S truly ready. Cosmetically I removed all of the indicators, the numberplate hanger, and decided to treat myself to a set of Renthal Bars. Once in place I then fitted, glued and lock wired in a set of Renthal grips and…

  • Charlie’s Dirty Secret

    Charlie’s Dirty Secret

    Having discovered that my brother-in-law was serious about racing enduro this season, I got moving looking for an affordable machine to get me going. There was no way I could afford to go for anything new, and wouldn’t if I could to be honest. I have no idea whether the awesome time I have had…

    Dirty Weekend

    In case you hadn’t noticed, two-wheeled shenanigans don’t end on the Tarmac here at Fast Bikes. Myself and Beaky Saunders are fortunate enough to live on a mate’s farm which has a motocross track carved into the land, but has recently been out of action due to noise, and neighbours with issues with modern day…

    Charlie’s In A Wheel Lot Of Trouble!

    Since joining Moby and the Red Arrows (congrats by the way on your Scooter LeJog guys) at Wheeldon Farm I have been banging on about it to all and sundry. One such participant in my exhuberant detail was the brother-in-law Glenn. He raised the stakes somewhat and said I should give competition a go, as…
