Enduro World Series Round 2 is going off in an explosion of dust! As social media channels fill up with amazing shots of roost and off-the-hook riding, the racers have just finished their first day of racing. With three stages to go tomorrow it’s still all to play for, but here are the results after day one.

The results are in after the first day of racing and the DH riders are cleaning up in the ridiculous amounts of dust. Richie Rude is smashing it, and young Martin Maes is hot on his heels. Surprise of the day is BMC’s new signing Lewis Buchanan, who was sitting in 3rd before a crash on Stage 3 and is now sitting in 5th overall.

Richie Rude, what a machine! Is this guy going to take another win?

In the women’s race, Cecile Ravenel is flying, but Isabeau and Casey are very close behind! With three stages still to come tomorrow this is a race that will go to the wire.

Casey Brown charging hard, but she could not threaten the dominance of Cecile Ravenel.
