Other top contenders include; Raewyn Morrison. Raewyn has exploded onto the EWS scene and will make the long haul from New Zealand to pit her skill and fitness against the mountains and competition. Joining her in the Elite female category is Rebecca Baraona from the UK. Rebecca has won UK enduro comps and held off Rachel Atherton in the 2015 RedBull Fox Hunt to be crowned RedBull Fox Hunt Champion.

We have a host of cycling VIP’s coming along to join us both on the trails and off to celebrate the launch of Trans-Rezia. The event will showcase the finest single track trails and stunning mountain passes in the region over 6 days of racing. We have combined the long haul of a Trans event with the speed and skill of an enduro race. Riders can expect high elevation riding and gravity fed special stages that pass through technical terrain.


Fitness levels will be tested as each day the riders have to climb anything from 1400m to 2500m covering an average of 70km in the process. A variety of uplifts including vehicle, chairlift and even a helicopter will each morning help the riders maintain elevation as they pass through breathtaking scenery. Thankfully superb Italian hospitality awaits in each stopover town, the riders will be treated to classic Italian cuisine and all the luxuries of modern hotels before hitting the trails the following day.


The event kicks off with a clover leave design in Santa Caterina, Sunday the 21st is time to build the bike and collect your rider pack before dinner and rider briefing. Racing starts on Monday 22nd with four special stages around the area that link the riders to Bormio. Day 2 kicks off with an uplift and a further five special stages take the riders over the border into Switzerland and back into Italy for the overnight stop in Arnoga. Day 3 takes the riders through the well-established bike park in Livigno on their way to Val Poschiavo in Switzerland , they will face one of the longest stages in the event as they descend from the Bernina pass to Poschiavo town.


Day 4 kicks of with a repeat stage then it's back over the mountains into Italy and on to Grosio via four special stages and some of the longest link stages. Day 5 and an easy start using the Sentiero Valtellina to link to Tirano where the rider will be held at morning coffee before being sent in small groups to the helicopter. Two special stages link them to a well-earned lunch in Chiuro before they climb out of the valley and on to Aprica for a further two special stages.


We round up on day 6 with a clover leaf course design around the town of Aprica. Here the public will get a chance to get up close to the action with three special stages around town in the morning and the final stage of the day dropping the riders into the town center. There will be a small expo area and a chance for people to test various brands of e-bike throughout the day.


We have very few spaces open for the public to apply for, if you would like to compete in the inaugural Trans-Rezia All Mountain Enduro go to the website, download the pdf entry form on the Participate - Race page and send it back to us. Good luck…
