Jack Moir is out in La Thuile for the third (and fourth) round of the Enduro World Series. We get to see the stages, some riding, and some really cool LED shoes (can someone please make light-up riding shoes?). Strap yourselves in for almost thirty minutes of good times with Jack and the team as they get ready for racing.
La Thuile EWS
Racing kicks off with a pro-only race on Thursday. This will see the biggest names in the sport take on four big stages in a single day. The 30km course features over 2700 metres of descent. There’s a mixture of chairlift and pedalling to access the fast and steep stages.
Saturday will see the EWS100 and EWS80 racers get between the tapes as they tackle 100 percent and 80 percent of the course respectively. Then the professional riders take to the Pro Stage on Saturday night. This short, fast stage will determine the seeding order for Sunday’s stages as well as offer up extra points for the top five finishers. The pros then face a further four more Stages on Sunday to conclude a huge week of racing
