Return to Serres!
It’s been four years since the Maxxis FIM World Enduro Championship last ventured to Serres, in the Macedonia region of Greece. We felt it was time to go back to this great town!
The organisation behind this fourth round of the championship already has six Grand Prix worth of experience (2004, 2005, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2015), as well as putting on the 2008 ISDE, and the LAMS club were quick to step up to ABC Communication’s request to replace the Grand Prix of Corsica – which was originally planned for the same dates!

Mooie heuvels en regen maken een zware wedstrijd!!
Feit 1: we hebben een handjevol jonge gasten die veel willen leren en bloedfanatiek zijn. Nou, die hebben niet voor niks 1400 km gereden!!!
Feit 2: ook ervaren rijders (Daan Bruijsten en Nina Klink) gaan op dag 1 niet hard genoeg. De voorbereiding moet anders dus.
Feit 3: het EK leeft nog met ruim 100 deelnemers en dat kan je van de WK open klasse nu al niet meer zeggen.

FIM Europe Enduro-Championship 1st day in Brezno / Slovakia
Albin Elowson wins first day in Brezno / Slovakia
The Swede Albin Elowson won the first day of the second round of this year’s European Enduro Championship in Brezno / Slovakia, in the overall standings: The Husqvarna rider gradually managed to get ahead of championship leader Kristof Kouble, who in the end added up to over half a minute.
Both riders also won their cubic capacity class, Elowson the four-stroke 250+cc class and Kouble the junior 2-3 class.
The junior class 1, with the smaller cubic capacity motorcycles, was won by the Finn Roni Kytönen, who had to overtake some slower riders on the track in front of him, otherwise he might have been even better than his fourth place in the overall standings.
How demanding the track and the special stages were is most evident in the women’s class: there the English rider Nieve Holmes won – although she got an additional penalty minute on the track: “I was in time at the time control in time, but I still had to refuel,” said the Sherco rider, who switched from motocross to enduro only two years ago. “I drove more cautiously and looked more closely so that I wouldn’t make any mistakes in the tests,” she revealed her secret recipe. That worked because the demanding specials offered many opportunities for mistakes.
The women also had to fight hard on the track, just three of the 13 female riders remained without penalty points.
But because bad weather is predicted for the second day, the organiser has installed some defusing measures on the stage as well as in enduro and extreme tests.
The complete results of all classes are attached.
