The Spirit of Enduro World Champs - 2013

26 November 2013  |  

Check out this stunning edit from The Dudes of Hazzard two-day endurance event called, The Spirit of Enduro World Champs in Kinlochleven, Scotland. Enjoy!

Kinlochleven is an old industrial village nestling in the scenic glens of the west Highlands of Scotland. The rusting-remains of industrial machinery now stand like silent guards in a valley where an aluminium smelter once was the heart. Coupled with the strong presence of an old hydro-electric plant, the setting proved to be unique and full of character … perfect for a mountain bike race to take place!! (It was also the setting for a segment featured in Danny MacAskill's 2010 film "Way Back Home").

Local riders, known as The Dudes of Hazzard, teamed up with No Fuss Events to host the two-day Endurance event called: 'The Spirit of Enduro World Champs'. The event name pretty much summed up what The Dude's are all about; not taking themselves too serious, out for the love of biking, and sharing a weekend of shredding with other like-minded enthusiasts! And, why wouldn't you want to partake in the event after the boys posted this promotional video: mpora.com/videos/AAdl6u38d9xn

There were three stages to attack; each individual stage was timed from start to finish. Travelling from one stage to the next was not timed. Plenty of mud, slippery rocks, and tree roots to conquer as quickly as possible: not for the faint hearted by any means!
