We are excited to announce the launch of Fantasy Enduro. Pick your dream Enduro World Series team and you could be in the running to walk home with the Grand Prize.

Get ready to show your skills for picking winners, at all 8 rounds of the 2022 Enduro World Series. With a fictional budget of $1.5 million you will choose your ultimate team of 6 riders (4 men, 2 women) and go to battle in the Fantasy Enduro League. Each round you can make changes to your team and you can be apart of 2 mini-leagues and compete against your friends. Each race round will have feature prizing for the overall Top Team of the round and then at the end of all 8 races we crown the overall Fantasy Enduro Champion and present the Grand prize of a complete bike!

Sound good? Build your team today! See the list of participating riders for this round here.

Grand Prize
Season Overall

For the grand prize awarded at the end of the season, Maxxis teamed up with Ibis to kick start your enduro career! Ibis is providing their Ripmo AF with a NGX build and Maxxis will make sure your first couple seasons of racing go smoothly with 24 tires of your choice in addition to a boat load of team Maxxis swag!

Round Prize
Round 1: Tweed Valley

For this first round, one lucky winner will receive three sets of Maxxis tires, including two Assegais, two Shortys and two Dissectors along with some swag to keep you looking fresh on your way to the trails. Designed by the GOAT, Greg Minnaar, the Assegai has quickly gained a reputation as the grippiest tire in Maxxis’ line. It’s the go-to front tire for the gnarliest conditions. The knob layout on the Shorty has been altered to improve wet traction, cornering performance, and mud shedding abilities, while the Dissector seeks to minimize drag while retaining cornering control.


IMPORTANT: To maximize your chances to win the Grand Prize, we recommend you have your team created by June 3, 2022. You will want to maximize your points score and have your team present for all races. Teams created at a time after races have previously occurred earlier will not be eligible to backlog points that riders would have accrued from previous races.

2022 Race Schedule:


EWS Tweed Valley 4 June 2022 Innerleithen, GBR
EWS Petzen Jamnica 18 June 2022 Petzen Jamnica, SLO
EWS Val Di Fassa Trentino 25 June 2022 Canazei, ITA
EWS Whistler 6 August 2022 Whistler, CAN
EWS Burke 13 August 2022 Burke Vermont, USA

Good luck!

 Bro where is XC fantasy
  • 32 3
 You shouldn't ask Bro where the XC stuff is at.
  • 28 20
 No XC Fantasy for the 2022 season unfortunately
  • 11 4
 I thought it was already made pretty clear that brands didn’t want to contribute to XC fantasy, so there were no prizes and thus no league
  • 37 0
 @samdeatley: i think a lot of folks would have been fine without prizes. the bigger thing was that there hadn't been any sort of official communication about it from the PB staff, I guess this is the closest we'll get to that.

 @sarahmoore: Someone finally answered! We can all sleep again

 @samdeatley: "Pretty clear"? It was mentioned in a comment in one of the XC articles last week after weeks of people asking and moaning. Not what I'd call being very explicit or communicative about it.

 @samdeatley: I would have be happy with a XC fantasy w/o prizes. I mean who see it as a way to win prizes?!
  • 3 1
 @fautquecaswing: Yeah same. I love the fun of thinking about a good team and wathcing your chosen riders' performance.

 pinkbike should try a fantasy XC league. The UCI World Cup XC racing is easy to watch on redbulltv. There are a lot of famous racers, I've even seen articles written about them on pinkbike dot com the website.
  • 23 1
 Will Pinkbike ever update their athlete roster, half the athletes in here aren't even racing the EWS they've gone E EWS or aren't racing
  • 9 0
 Seconded, athlete list has some serious holes in it
  • 5 3
 It's part of the game... don't do your research = don't deserve to win.
  • 1 2
 @islandforlife: Yeah but unlike DH there isn't a start list, shit there isn't even a rumors thread about who may/may not be racing. Also the photo of the bike is the highest spec Ripmo which IS NOT the prize... Enduro fantasy is kinda a joke.
  • 17 1
 seems like the rider list should be updated? Not seeing a lot of riders that will be doing a full season.
  • 3 0
 Seems like last years u21s who have moved up to senior are missing
  • 7 0
 @JamesKROZ: The rider list was updated to reflect the 2021 standings, but you're right that we may have overlooked some of the U21 riders. I'll look into that shortly!
  • 3 0
 Amd Robin Wallner and Oton weren't they retired from the top field?
  • 1 0
 @sarahmoore: the entry list has adam brayton, joe breeden, and mitch ropelato. I think Cody Kelly and Vali Holl are racing some others. Would be nice.
  • 2 0
 @sarahmoore: Thanks for creating the list! Is there a possibilty to add Gloria Scarsi? Thank you!

 @sarahmoore: I'll get an outside+ subscription if you add jess stone

 So the homepage says 22 hours to sort your team, go to edit my team and it says the team is locked as the event is live? Which one is true? ‍♂️
  • 2 1
 Looks like they screwd up and locked it a day early. Pro stage isn't till tomorrow.
  • 1 0
 @saramoore any chance of opening registration again?
  • 13 2
 Excellent. Real fantasy enduro is better than fantasy fantasy xc.
  • 2 0
 Ahhh hahah hahah, now my 6yr old is wondering why I’m chuckling
  • 7 0
 @sarahmoore so the clock on the main page says people still have 15 hours to update their team, but if you go in to edit your team, the roster is locked. Is that correct?
  • 6 0
 Website says 21 hours left to create your team, but fantasy website says event is happening now? which one is right?
  • 6 0
 Please add Dan Booker. Should be racing the full season for Nukeproof-Sram factory racing
  • 6 0
 It says the event is locked. Cant edit teams now but countdown clock still has 20hrs remaining
  • 6 0
 Hello outside, intel from the inside. EWS ain’t started, so unlock the fantasy and let us edit teams.
  • 1 1
 @prattbrewboy
I misunderstood this as well- the countdown is to the first EWS race. The deadline to create teams was a couple of weeks ago. However, you can still create your own team for fun, just no prizes from Pinkbike. We could create an alternative fantasy league, eh?
  • 8 1
 Jess Stone?
  • 3 0
 Yeah real good contender for the opener. Should be on the list
  • 1 0
 came here to say the same thing
  • 5 0
 @sarahmoore Sarah, the countdown says we have 18 more hours, but the teams are locked already.
  • 3 0
 it's the same shit every year. I do not understand how they can not set the timer to match the locking of rosters
  • 3 0
 @bashhard: Yep. Some kind of api connection to actual starting list and price changing based on ranking would be a nice touch too. To be honest, it's just fun for me, no science. Just don't like such a nonsense
  • 4 0
 Countdown is running ( more than 15 hours) on the main page, but not possible to create team??????
  • 4 0
 Brutal!!! This is killing me! Lol

 @volksyboy: f..k you

 This rider list sucks. Bernard Kerr, really? And no Irenee Menjou?
  • 1 0
 I've added Menjou now. List is based on the 2021 overall ranking.
  • 4 0
 @sarahmoore: Can we get Alex Storr in there too? He just moved up this year. ....now I'm giving away my whole team list
  • 14 1
 This list needs a serious price adjustment. Remi Gauvin finished 28th but is 10th most expensive rider. Eddie Masters 39th - 11th most expensive. And there are many more examples of this but basically if a rider performs they become more expensive which is fair. If a rider underperforms - they are still expensive.
  • 6 0
 @rtclark: So? There are definitely some really bad values and really good values on the list. The players job is to sort those from one another.

To my eye, the unreasonably expensive riders are either previous top riders or have big social media followings. Basically they are traps for casual players who pick people they’ve heard of and don’t really follow the sport. I consider that a feature, not a bug.
  • 1 0
 @sarahmoore: could you add Alex Storr
  • 1 0
 @sarahmoore: can you please add Dan Booker from aus
  • 1 0
 @MattKidd91: they have added Dan Booker but he definitely hasn’t got a newby price tag.
  • 5 0
 Didn’t Robin Wallner retire?
  • 2 1
 Yea. Rider list is totally messed up.
  • 4 0
 What's up again? rosters locked even though the timer on the front page still says 16 hours and 45 minutes???
@sarahmoore

 another fantasy contest to suck at - luckyyyy
  • 3 0
 6 maxxis tires? That prize is worth 200 specialized goblin helmets.
  • 1 0
 I finished the sentence in my head before finishing it with my eyes hoping I could build a fantasy enduro bike with virtual parts that are still unavailable
  • 3 0
 @sarahmoore need to add some riders such as Jess Stone
  • 1 0
 And other riders like Corey Watson etc
  • 3 0
 @sarahmoore why is the event still locked but the timer says 9 hours left?
  • 1 2
 @marqueski
This article is from May 11.
The team creation deadline was then. The timer is counting down to the first actual race...

 I think that's right, anyway...

 Will all the practice picking our XC and DH fantasy leagues teams this is going to be a breeze.

 No louise ferguson or jess stone? Definitely missing a lot of riders
  • 1 2
 Would be really cool to have some links to prior season standings and a list of people entered in the next race. I know expertise should be rewarded but a couple resources for research would be cool!
  • 3 0
 It's Locked Already!!!

 What do you mean by dead a couple years ago
  • 2 0
 All new ripmo Af’s will be coming with Marzochi suspension very soon. Not fox but close.

 @stokedrightnow: cool. I actually ride a ripmo af with fox 36 rn, so I was just a bit confused
  • 1 1
 @stokedrightnow: How is Marzocchi not fox? Big Grin
  • 2 1
 @winko: yeah marzocchi is just entry level fox in another color
  • 3 0
 @ZanderShredsMtb: When I ordered my Ripmo, a couple of years ago, 2020. I tried to get the fox sus. and was told that they were only going with DVO, not that I'm mad, became a fan of DVO. Maybe it was supply issues with COVID or something. On Ibis's page the only option is still DVO.
