Enduro European Championship: Second half of the championship starts in Kielce The Enduro European Championship is ready to start in Poland the second half of the season: the motorsport club from Kielce, "Korona Novi", has pitched its tents in Piekoszów, on the western outskirts of Kielce. The club not only has a lot of experience with Enduro, it even hosted the finals of the European Championship in 2018. Three rounds of the 76 km long course will be ridden every day, which adds up to over 220 km of off-road for the riders. The course includes a cross test, an enduro test and an extreme test to be completed in each round. All tests are within easy reach of the paddock for fans and supporters. Over 120 riders have registered for this. Although junior rider Kristof Kouble from the Czech Republic is currently the leader in the overall standings, his

Enduro European Championship: second round in the Czech Republic Day1 Second round for the European Enduro Championship in Kozojedy, Czech Republic. The favourite, Krystof Kouble, lived up to his role and made the most of his home advantage on the demanding course - the Czech rider came back from the first of the three rounds with three special stages each as the overall leader. He did not relinquish this position until the finish. But he had a crash in the very last special test. After a crash in the extreme test, championship leader Enrico Rinaldi from Italy had to bury his hopes for another class win ahead of Kouble. Rinaldi took third place in the overall standings. In second place, however, and surprisingly, was Dominik Olszowy from Poland, who had not yet competed in the European Championship. However, the KTM rider had just returned from the Hardenduro World Championship in

Enduro European Championship: ready for the second round All is set for the second round of the European Enduro Championship with the second round in the Czech Republic after three and a half months: the KP Enduro Club has pitched its tents in Kozojedy (- Obecní Úřad), about 70 km west of Prague. Three and a half laps on 55 km long track each day, which add up to almost 200 km off-road for the riders. The course includes a cross test as well as an enduro test and an extreme test to be completed in the round. Over 120 riders have signed up for this. The Italian riders Enrico Rinaldi and Diego Niccoletti are the favourites, as they are currently ahead of all other participants in the championship standings. But in their Czech homeland, both junior Kristof Kouble and his compatriot Jaromir Romancik should certainly not be underestimated. The start

Enduro European Championship: the off-road is back to thrill On Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 April the Enduro European Championship started its season in Castel di Tora, Italy. A total of 132 riders competed: a considerable number in view of the various international anti Covid-19 regulations and since some riders had to stay at home involuntarily. A “world” round, as some riders took part as training for the Enduro World Championship. Day 1 The Italian Thomas Oldrati and his French teammate Theophile Espinasse won the first and second place with Honda RedMoto World Enduro Team. It could have gotten the first three places, but the Finnish Roni Kytönen finished fourth after a crash. As the three guests do not get points for the European Championship, the best rider in the European Championship was the Italian Diego Nicoletti (Husqvarna), third overall. Only six seconds behind Enrico Rinaldi finished second, while the reigning

After last year postpones and cancellations due to the Coronavirus outbreak, this weekend the off road world will be hosted by Motoclub Valturano in Castel di Tora, Italy.
