    Default Red Bull Romaniacs.

    The 2017 .
    Should be a gruelling 4-day race, as always.

    See it live or search blogs at



    98 competitors in the Iron class
    230 in the Bronze class
    112 in the Silver Class.
    32 in the Gold class (5 Beta 300's, 2 Sherco 300's and the remaining 27 are KTM/Husky's)

    All classes generally cover 100-200km of terrain per day and include a mandatory break of 20 minutes at the service point. The estimated riding time is similar for all classes and averages at around 6-8 hours. In order to become a finisher, you should naturally bring sufficient technical skills to maintain your bike throughout the race; bring a bike that is ready and well prepared for an Extreme Enduro event and you should have been practising using your GPS.




    This is just the prologue in the car park!!

    Hope it was better than the live stream I was just watching of 'Off road day 2', like paint drying, just showing bikes come across the finish. WTF?
    Couldn't get the stream to work yesterday for Off road day 1. Still no replay of it showing up.

    Watched the replay of the prologue, wow the Gold group top 3 made it look like a day at the park.
    Cheers, Tiny

    Thanks for that, Takes me back to my youth, the sound of a two stroke pounding between your legs as you fly down a narrow track. What's with the car going the other way down the track, that spells disaster to me?
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
