What is an enduro sidecar?

The sport of enduro is the motorcycle equivalent of car rallying. As bikes can cope with much rougher going than cars, enduros use narrow tracks in forests and woodland, open moorland, bogs and very steep hills, both up and down. Sidecars used in enduros are similar to motocross sidecars (sidecarcross), but have lights fitted, and preferably have wider spaced gearing. Some chassis manufacturers make their enduro frames slightly narrower than motocross chassis. Competitors who intend doing the championships need to have road legal sidecars, as two of the events include roadwork. Traditional (timecard) enduros require the competitors to reach a 'check' at a certain time, with penalties for early or late arrival, and two or three 'special tests' per day. The riding time varies from four to eight hours each day. "Hare and Hounds" are more condensed events, both in time and distance. You are required to do as many laps as possible in two, three or four hours. Laps are usually between three and fifteen
