Always in constant search of new paths and locations where to make the bikes run fast, also this year the time has finally come to reveal the Superenduro 2019 calendar.
The countdown starts until April 7, the date that will start this new adventure which, in the hills and mountains of two of the most active regions on the national and international mtb scene, Liguria and Tuscany, will see the most anticipated event of the Italian enduro and more.
There will be four stages that the riders will have to face to conquer the title, three of them completely new for Superenduro, with breathtaking scenarios and unprecedented specials that will put everyone to the test but above all all on the same level.
Very welcome, certainly also for bikers from Central Italy, the great return of the location that saw the start of the first edition of the EWS. We are talking about Punta Ala (GR), the destination that has marked the history of national and world enduro and which, after a period of absence from enduro mtb competitions, returns as the second stage of SE2019.
Let's go into some detail.
Il 7 April we start from Pietra Ligure (SV), a race valid as an Enduro World Series Qualifier, where riders will find themselves facing a territory and trail, some freshly marked, all to be explored. Pietra Ligure is a rapidly growing location in mtb and boasts long and very varied trails, the ideal terrain to open the dances. As a "neighbor of Finale Ligure" Pietra Ligure can only give us a great show, while maintaining its unique identity, the beauty and charm of the historic center, which overlooks the sea.
After a little over a month, May 19th marks the great return of Punta Ala (GR), one of the most popular races for bikers. No words are needed to describe it, it is an iconic location for enduro and this year it returns showing new areas and trails that will be partially announced during the race. The Punta Ala event wants to be different from the usual, if we want more intimate and collected, with the possibility of spending quality time and relaxation even with family and friends in the pine forest of Camping Punta Ala. The structure will welcome us with the pumptrack, the adventure park, sup, sailing boats and of course the beach to frame the second appointment of the season.
Il 16 June is then time to fly to discover Lerici (SP), the third stage. Here it will really be all to be discovered, so riders get ready because it will be the details and subtleties of driving that will make the difference. Lerici welcomes for the first time a national race like the SE, and it too is in full development for the MTB world. Lerici will take you to face intense specials, to then end in the splendid and characteristic village of the eastern coast. In short, we are sure that the new Lerici location will surprise us.
Il 2 July the grand final in Abetone (PT), super tested by TES and a location fully devoted to gravity. It will be the adrenaline-pumping finale of the season as well as the second Italian appointment with an EWS Qualifier. Its height difference is remarkable, which is why the ski lifts will be used. Here technique, concentration and physical strength will not be enough; Abetone will undoubtedly reward the rider who will manage himself best in this mountain race. Abetone will therefore be the stage that will lead us to the conclusion of the Superenduro 2019 and that will crown the Superenduro Champion of the year, but it will also be the last very important appointment to refine the vehicle to an alpine terrain, just like that of the Italian Enduro Championship in La Thuile. the week after.
All the information for registration and some important news on the Superenduro format will be online soon.
