Crazy March lovely ride

Sunday is THE day decicated on riding from almost every Enduro rider around the globe. For me, when I have some days off guiding, to be able to devote a Sunday on enduro riding is a true blessing, especialy when I find my self in a group, among guys who love and apreciate the sport.

The meeting point was at North Stars HQ, also know as mancave, store or simple bikes place. Trying to be modest here, I think that we have a place for bikes that you can rarely find in small cities like ours, so our friends and clients have given us plenty of nicknames describing love and admiration for the bikes we have in store and use in our enduro touring activities.

First Beta moto showed up, a nice 2021 300 RR looking brand new from te hands of Nikos, a friend and suplier who started riding relatively recent and he wanted to have a ride wiht NS crew many times.  A 4stroke soon showed up next, a Beta RR 350 and soon after 2 more 300s. The outside of the store was soon red and white. Space filled with Betabikes and riders. Last bike was one of our “fathers”, guy who we owe riding since their patience and guidance gave us the oportunity to continue riding and explore our sport with passion. He was on a 2021 Gasgas (KTM) which loked owesome.

7 riders, 6 Betas and one Gasgas, cheering and laughing among the riders and a cloudy cold weather, which we all ignored, put us to an advenure I will hardly forget.

All guys where riding in advanced level, despite the fact they where new in the fiel of enduro riding they where very good at it. I was pleasantely surprised by their riding level and abilities which offered me the oportunity to take them to amazing places and design a longer and demandig route.

We reached the great heights of 700m prety soon and with flow. Weather was windy and agresive and looking at the mountain top where we headed there were clear signs of bad weather. Did we care ? Nope.

One of the guys, Dimitris, was purely missing going fast in those trails. He was chaising and passing me really fast almost in all the ride, pushing me to go fast too. Amazing competition among friends in a wonderful track.

The rest of the gang was following nicely forming a group that every time I looked back to check on them was a pleasure in my eyes. A line of red bikes, snow flakes flying around, red winter colours of the forest formed a photo that man would envie.

Snow was soon thicker and eventually plenty. It forcesd us to start riding towards the city since soon visibility was zero and all the terrain white.

Of course going fro the asphalt was out of the question so we kept riding in routes we knew were safe even covered by snow and hide no surprises.

Coming back we were all shacking, wet and dirty but guess. A painful smile was pictured on my frozen red face from hapiness of riding such a day.

Crazy? Well you can say that, but this craziness is awesome.
