South West Enduro Championship: Round 1
Chris Dustow started the defence of his South West Enduro Championship title in perfect style in the opening round of the championship on Sunday.
Chris took a convincing win in style, managing to lap the whole field up to 3rd place and beating 2nd place by over 10 minutes.
Full results can be found here.
You could say this was a perfect start to the 2010 season for Chris and fingers crossed this is a sign of things to come. Big thanks to Gibbs Performance for prepping Chris’s bike to perfection.
A few quick clips we managed to get of Chris out practicing last weekend. We should be able to get plenty more footage between now and Erzberg, so we should have some good stuff before too long. We may even learn how to properly edit a video along the way as well, but until then you will have to excuse the sketchy video editing skills.
Just for a bit of fun, here’s Chris getting slightly tangled up with his bike at the weekend. More videos of his weekend’s ride to come over the course of the week, this is just a quick teaser to keep you going.

Welcome to the 2010 Erzberg Rodeo Road Trip blog.
In June 2010, Cornwall based, South West Enduro Champion, Chris Dustow and a group of his friends will be going on the road trip of a life time. Driving from Cornwall, England, the team will head overseas to Austria, where Chris will take part in the infamous Erzberg Rodeo. The toughest enduro race in the world.
Here you can keep up to date with progress as the team prepare for our epic journey. We plan to update the blog before, during and after the event and hope to give you a unique insight into the preparations, hard work and training Chris puts in before the events as well as the all round experiences the rest of the team go through during the journey.
You can expect to see a mix of both serious hard work and serious fun and carnage covered on the blog. We hope to get a load of video and photographic coverage of our preparations, Chris tackling the Erzberg Rodeo and all the partying and carnage the team come across and cause on their journeys. With this in mind, we will be posting anything ranging from video clips of Chris out training, Shaun H preparing the tunes that will have the team stomping on the trip and just about anything else that we find of interest. We will try to keep it all relevant but we make no promises!
As serious and hard as the whole experience is going to be, these boys know how to have a bit of fun along the way so make sure you keep yourself logged on, share the fun and show your support!
Until the next update, keep it pinned!
