While the Enduro World Series were on pause and the world's top enduro racers were stuck at home waiting for the series to get back underway, we were glued to athletes' social feeds, rewatching event highlight videos, and rereading old tech articles... and now that the short but intense season of racing is over, we're back to doing the same thing. To put all that Enduro World Series knowledge to use, we're running a couple more rounds of Fantasy Enduro Trivia while we recover from a topsy turvy season.

These trivia quizzes WILL count towards the overall Fantasy Enduro League, so if you're all all-time EWS nerd (or just have a knack for guessing!) you could be the lucky person who wins an Ibis Ripmo V2 with the new 12 speed Shimano XT groupset!

Each trivia round will feature 15 questions and this one will run 10 days, from Wednesday, November 18th at 10am PST through Sunday, November 29th at 11:59pm PST and will have feature prizing for the overall Top Nerd. We'll combine these final two rounds of Fantasy Trivia with the previous rounds of Fantasy Trivia and Fantasy Enduro to crown the overall Fantasy Enduro Champion and present the Grand prize of a complete bike!

Sound good? Let's get started. But first, here's what's at stake:


The Prizes

 @murphymarv was in 20th place last week (before the last Trivia), and now he's in 9th place! Watch out for him!

 @dolores thanks for the props man! However, I am admittedly way less optimistic than you ;( I might have gone up a few spots in the ranking but the difference between the leader and me is still 3 questions (the exact same amount as it has been before this trivia round). I was therefore hoping for some guessing questions as little extra spice in the last trivia round but guess that the answers are pretty unambiguous. I am stoked for you though to have won the two beauties, what a ridiculous spectacle the triple crown would have been Big Grin

 Hi @murphymarv. It would have been more interesting if they asked who finished First instead of Third in the EWS women's overall. It would be tricky considering section: "0.6.8 Results"

 @dolores: absolutely, I agree. Well, the trivia rounds have been a good entertainment nonetheless and definitely improved my enduro knowledge by quite a bit. Guess that's my main price Big Grin

 I was wondering (the devil is in the details): is it true that @andreaneln has dual Canadian-French nationality because she speaks French? Perhaps @JesseMelamed could shed some light on question number 8.

 I can't give away the answer that easily!

 Hi @JesseMelamed: If I remember correctly, I heard @andreaneln speaking French in Suisse, but I really don't know if she really has dual Canadian-French nationality... Rolleyes

 @dolores you amaze me with your detective work hah! There must be a reason you earned yourself two bikes i guess. on another note: as much as i love your effort, I am afraid pb will count the answer out again if your guess proves to be true...

 I might have a chance! All you people in the top 50, I’d appreciate it if you could get everything wrong.
  • 1 0
 Same, I think I'm just ahead of you!
  • 1 0
 For some reason those ahead of me in the top 10 won't drop... how rude... best of luck, hope 40 below me drop for you. Razz

 I totally guessed throughout. I have no idea about any of those question's, and haven't the time to find out Smile

 I don't now why but I haven't any point for the first trivia round, otherwise I would be in the game !!! I hate computers, love bikes :o

 Is that Jack Moir question asking about full race or stage?

 so the current fantasy rankings will not change after this trivia eh?
  • 1 0
 The rankings will be updated with the points from this round.

 @sarahmoore: Pretty sure he means the order everyone is in, as in this is the easiest yet and there won't be a shakeup.

 How long does it take for pinkbike to post the answers. It’s been 3 days
  • 1 0
 I'm guessing it's because they drag out releases with their cycle, X articles per day, and they've had Field Test etc... plus according to the rules we thought there'd be more rounds, but they said they're ending it now, so since this is the final round and the bike will be awarded they're probably being more careful, especially due to previous mistakes... but seriously... the way the points go for Fantasy there aren't that many changes, so it shouldn't be that hard. I'd think it'd be released in the morning.

 Not so sure about the Covid question,depends on interpretation and where you arrive from, if you go to race documents the English version states podiums must be separated 2m.But if you arrive there from Rules www.enduroworldseries.com/ews-general/rules-and-resources the local "specific Ligure" Italian local procedures mention podiums 'will be assured 1m distance"
  • 1 0
 @miguelcurto: Saw that as well, in the end went with the 2m, seems more standard across the world, plus it was in English
