Enduro events includes several liaison stages and timed stages. The times achieved in all timed stage will be accumulated to a total time. An enduro course comprises varied off-road terrain. The track should include a mixture of narrow and wide, slow and fast paths and tracks over a mixture of off-road surfaces. Enduro racing requires athletes to use a combination of endurance, speed and technical skills.

The Objective

The objective is to complete each stage as quickly as possible, and the rider with the fastest cumulative time over all stages is declared the winner.

What is a liaison stages and timed stage?

Timed stages are part of the actual race and these times are combined to give you your actual race time. Liaison stages are the stages that transition to the start of a stage and are usually uphill and not combined to your race time.

How long/ far is an Enduro?

Enduro races typically last one or two days. Each day can contain 3-5 stages. Typically a complete day of Enduro including liaisons is around 20-25km. Each stage is usually from a couple 100meters to 2km long.

Not a technical rider?

Do not fear! While Enduro races require a combination of technical skills and physical endurance, as riders must be able to handle challenging downhill sections and climb efficiently to the next stage. We do offer a lite version of the race to encourage riders of all skill levels to participate in the events.

If there is a slightly more tougher obstacle in the trail this is usually marked with an A and B line split. A line being the more technical or slightly higher risk line and the B line allowing riders to still feel safe and capable.
