After an incredibly successful first running of the Catalan 'Duro this October we have fixed the date for the 2019 edition.

For the 2019 edition we are happy to announce that we will run a week long trip including participation in the event. Join us and profit from a week of fun and preparation finishing with racing against some of the best Enduro racers in France and Spain.

During the week we will ride a mix of our classic local enduro trails, train on the race circuit, have a day riding with EWS star Damien Oton and much more.

Over the weekend race both the Saturday evening event and the Sunday Enduro. Join in the festivities on the Saturday night with a live band, Barbecue and then pit yourself against the mountain and trails on the Sunday followed by the after race party. A fantastic weekend awaits....

Spring Trails, Super E'

Spring Trails in the Pyrenees Orientales, Super E'.

A series of trail videos all shot in the month of March 2018. Summer is coming!!

Super E'. We found this trail a few years back whilst exploring down the valley in Spain. For years we have been riding another superb trail on the north face of the valley and I have looked at a ribbon of singletrack on the opposite mountain. Finally one winters day we decided to explore this south facing trail. What a gem it is.

Enjoy.

Spring Trails, Duro Enduro

Spring Trails in the Pyrenees Orientales, Duro Enduro.

Duro Enduro. Angela and I raced the "Enduro de Prades" part of the Catalan Enduro Series (famed for producing a certain Mr Damien Oton :). The Enduro de Prades is unfortunately not run any more but this and the other specials remain some of our favourite early and late season trails. Always dry and always rocky, the trails are an awesome mix of flow and technical challenges. Duro Enduro was stage 4 and in its entirety a fantastic long classic hard enduro stage.

Enjoy.
