RUST magazine: Rust#24
Assoluti D’Italia – is this the world’s best enduro championship? Fantic’s new 250 – have the Italian’s made a CRF250L-beater? Trans America Trail – is this the world’s greatest trail ride? Plus plenty of product testing, columnists and more Try as we might we’ve failed (again) to make a small magazine! And again we’ve been travelling the earth. We’ve headed into Italy to witness the start of their enduro season with round one of the Assoluti D’Italia – and what we saw there is just mind-blowing. We stayed local for a first test of Fantic’s latest trail bike, the 250E Casa – and what a surprise that wee bike is. And we end the issue in grand style, too, as it just doesn’t get any grander than the canyons of the US’s west. It’s a big issue, for sure. Enjoy the reading – and your riding!

Tony a<br />
van dr<br />
each a<br />
this book by its cover, and the ‘Clampetts’ quickly came<br />
to mind, but we gratefully loaded Tony’s bike onto the<br />
truck. Now old Jed could see the funny side of the situation<br />
and as the pick-up rumbled off<br />
down to Port Orford with Tony and his bike he shouted<br />
out to us ‘thanks for the bike y’all!’<br />
We could follow Tony or we could finish the trail.<br />
As everyone looked around, it was apparent that<br />
whatever fate awaited Tony, he was on his own!<br />
The sun was turning golden as we finally hit the coast,<br />
and the sea only appeared at the very last moment but,<br />
oh, what a sight. Tony and his bike arrived shortly after<br />
and we lined up in front of the beach for the obligatory<br />
photo shoot and a toast to 3000 miles of trail riding with<br />
riders and machinery all in one piece. Dinner conversation<br />
