    I'm still not quite getting the sponsorship idea of why Wellard from Australia has sponsorship and limited sponsorship for our club riders? I do know that for the most part they simply supply jerseys (advertising for them). Anyone privy to the back ground on Wellard? Just curious.

    I don't really know, but I assumed they were eventually going to enter the US market for agricultural commodities.

    That's what l love about watching these racers in enduro and world enduro...the fact that the rider has do all the bike work in a strict time period or face time penalties, shows they can't be a prima donna and just throw their bike at the mechanic and off to their trailers.

    It's been a 15 minute work period before impound and a 10 minute work period coming out of impound in the morning, for quite a long time. If it was 10 minutes before, they might have lengthed the end of day one, when they restricted work on the bike during actual race time. A rider can only work out of his tool pack and no tire changes on race course. The old ISDT vids shows riders doing tire changes, at time controls... You can't do that anymore.

    Norm, I remember the work period being 10 minutes before and after and I did attend 3 ISDEs in the nineties. I worked with the US team to help the riders so I did spend a fair amount of time around it. The club riders also used to be scored against the trophy riders not separate like they are now.

    I haven't attended one since Dalton in 1973, so you would know better than me. It seems that it could have possibly changed in the the early 2000's, but it is 15 minutes now. I'll ask Fred Hoess, as he has raced the ISDE since the mid 1980's and I'm sure he knows.

    From 2015 FIM ISDE Rules....

    061.56.2
    Ten minutes before the starting time, the rider will move his motorcycle
    into the working area to carry out necessary adjustments, refuelling, etc.


    061.76.1
    Before the last servicing area, there will be a Pre-Finish time check, which
    will be signalled in the same way as the time checks without servicing,
    where servicing will not be allowed. The riders will have 15 minutes to go
    from this time check to the final time check.

    very cutting boogie.:D

    apparently the French don't even use transponders or anything similar anymore. just a big arse trailride for em & rock in to time controls when they feel like it. they've also dispensed with bunting, directional arrows & a general sense of direction. sorry now im just being a sore winner/loser?!:excuseme:
