The first important race of the enduro season took place on the trails of Dolceacqua, on the border where the Lapierre Gravity Republic team dominated: the legendary Nicolas Vouilloz won in front of the young Adrien Dailly, with the podium completed by Julien Camellini.
The race saw 300 athletes at the start with a good part of French and a perfect organization (the Italian Supernatual Scrl together with the French 1001 Sentiers).
In 4th and 5th place Sawomir Lukasik (NS Bikes / FroPro) and Dimitri Tordo (BH Gravity) finished. Sixth the first Italian, Marco Milivinti (GR Rifar). The brothers Alex and Denny Lupato (Team Cingolani Trek) are more late, 11th and 12th respectively. In the top 20 we also find Francesco Fregona (Bikeinfinity.it-Devinci), 16th overall.
