Hard Enduro Red Bull Romaniacs won the “US Xtremey awards for best outdoor enduro” in 2007. I’ve read somewhere that Hard Enduro Red Bull Romaniacs is the ultimate enduro contest. I can’t find it now, but I’ve got some info from the original site. Watch the video, it’s good.
Starting from the 13th through to the 17st of September, 2008, Sibiu, Romania will be hosting The Hard Enduro Red Bull Romaniacs International Rally’s fifth edition. Licensed by the Romanian Motorcycle Federation, and offering a total of 15.000 Euros in prize money, the competition starts with a prologue within Sibiu’s town center, followed by 4 days of competition along a difficult and entailing course, which will go through the Southern Carpathians. The start, as well as the finish lines of every day’s stage will take place in Sibiu.
The offroad competition – the track for 2008
14th, 15th, 16th, 17th of September 2008 / Start & Finish in Sibiu
The four cross country stages of the competition, will take place on Sunday 14th, Monday 15th, Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th of September. Sibiu will be the place for every day’s start and finish. The length of the track varies for every class, meaning 100km or 200km per day.
The main challenges of the course are the technical parts, which lead through wood areas, where you may stumble upon rocks and rubble every now and then.
Pit stops are placed over distances of approximately 70 km, where the contestants can refuel their motorcycles and have the opportunity to refresh themselves with Red Bull and water.
The track will be paved by stripes, signs and colored markings, but to guarantee the safety of the contestants, they will have the official track of the contest loaded onto GPS devices. The markings and GPS devices will ensure the navigation while competing, road books and other expensive technical equipment being unnecessary.
