What is ENDURO?

What is ENDURO?
The term Enduro can translate to an "endurance test" between the rider and the hard terrain he encounters. Enduro as a sport is very physically and mentally challenging and demanding, as the rider must endure all obstacles that come with this ruff terrain like: fallen logs, trees, branches, tree roots, high angle slopes, rocky slopes, crossing rivers, streams and riding up and down hill on dirt, sand, gravel, mud, and all of this trying to overmanuver a 120 kilograms or 260 pounds bike, for long distances, bad weather, you name it.

Enduro is born to answer the call of adventure, to strengthen friendships, create bonds and all of this while having a great time. Enduro was born from other motor sports like: Supercross, Motocross,Trial, Supermoto and the need for adventure.

The favorite tracks of these Enduro heads are mountain areas, rocky grounds, hills and valleys. The main challenges are the technical parts where these enduro fanatics are challenged with natural terrain obstacles like jumping over trees, climbing steep hills. But usually the forest is the main ground of Enduro fanatics and the usual bike names that you encounter (two strokes or four strokes motors) are: KTM, Husqvarna, Husaberg, Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda, BMW, Gas Gas and so much more...

The toughest ENDURO races, hard enduro or top enduro competitions are:
Red Bull Romaniacs Hard Enduro Rallye, or Red Bull Romaniacs;
Red Bull Hare Scramble;
Red Bull Sea To Sky;
Grand National Cross Country;
and the list continues...

You can enhance your dirt bike by implementing different suspension, a larger gas tank,or new tires for every run.

Me along with my enduro fanatics friends have started filming our hangouts (crash and fail), for people to better understand "how to?" or "what is?" or "what is expected?" from this exhilarating and awesome sport. On our Enduro Fanatics Youtube channel, have mounted a compilations of crashes, fails, competition tracks, competition prologues, skills etc. You can check out our CRASH AND FAIL videos.
