@rubenchadwick and
@bennynielsen_632 headed to Esk, Queensland, for Round 2 of the Australian Hard Enduro Championship at the Weekend. Here is their report on the event:
“Riders were greeted with dry weather and frosty morning temperatures at a brand-new venue on the race calendar, aptly named Murrumba Madness. The technical and unforgiving terrain challenged competitors throughout the weekend.
Saturday featured a short but demanding prologue loop, filled with rocky creek sections and tight technical lines. Ruben Chadwick battled closely with the competition and executed a well-timed pass in one of the few overtaking spots on the course. He held his ground and brought home a strong 2nd place finish aboard his RR 300 RACE.
In the mixed Silver class, Ebony Nielsen put in a determined ride to claim 8th place, showing
solid form ahead of Sunday’s main race.
Sunday delivered near-perfect racing conditions for the main race. Ruben was second off the start line and quickly took the lead. Drawing on his extensive trials background and experience on similar terrain, Ruben thrived on the rocky creek beds and steep hill sections, extending his lead to 10 minutes by the end of the first lap, and a commanding 23 minutes by lap two. He
crossed the line in 1st place, further cementing his dominance in the championship.
Ebony also delivered a solid performance, pushing through over 4 hours and 20 minutes of racing in the tough conditions. She finished 17th in the mixed Silver class.
After Round 2, Ruben Chadwick maintains his lead in the 2025 Australian Hard Enduro Championship standings. Ruben returns to the track for Round 3, the Dog & Bone Extreme, on September 20–21 in Sandy
Hill, NSW. Ebony switches gears as she heads to Casterton, Victoria, for Rounds 7 & 8 of the Australian Enduro Championship.
Well done to Ruben, Ebony and the whole Beta Australia team 💪
