[Video And Photos] European Enduro Series, Prologue

The tension has been released a bit as the racers at the first round of the European Enduro Series in Punta Ala, Italy get a taste for the race tracks on the prologue. Racing commences at 9.00am Sunday.

The idea of the prologue stage is to get the riders warmed up, the stage is usually very short fairly easy and the time differences are seconds only, sometimes it gives an idea how riders are gong to perform, sometimes it’s just a rough idea… in Enduro anything can happen.
