Race preview: EMTB Enduro Series – Mieroszów, Poland
„Don’t be deceived by round profile of Suche Mountains – they look round and friendly just from the distance. Up close they are mainly steep ruthless screes.” Exactly in their heart in less then a month, 19. July, there will be a second edition of EMTB Enduro, Mieroszów.
This location has already earned a status of epic, because of level of difficulty typical for higher mountains. And this year we decided to go with even more epic. We start with an exhilarating prologue that will surely wake everybody up, followed by a few sweat-dripping liaisons. And special stages? Steep will be steeper, screes more ruthless, singletracks narrower and gnarlier. Pure hard core.
Don’t believe it? Check the track – July 16. and try it yourself – July 18. We open the route for trainings at high noon. We wait for your first impressions by the fire and end up the day with bike movies viewing.
Bike celebration starts on Saturday. First enduro bikers provide some entertainment for locals by flying through the city park, streets and town hall and then head for the mountains.
This is not the end of fun! The very new bike attraction in Mieroszów – Bike Arena Parkowa Góra is opened on the day of race, which means 1200m of singletrack (with jumps, north shores and many more) and 96m of pumptrack are to be experienced when Piotr Szwedowski conducts PumpTrack Jam Session showing you how to pump efficiently. Then, you can take part in PumpTrack Elimininator.
When everybody has a try at Bike Arena and the enduro racers finish, the official race closure and winners decoration ceremony starts on Parkowa Góra. Finally, we finish with a concert of HooDoo Band and after party.
