Lapierre Announce Participation in the Enduro World Series
23 January 2013 | By AngusMcIntoshLapierre is proud to announce its participation in the new Enduro World Series.
Nicolas Vouilloz, our talented collaborator and Enduro specialist, will represent Lapierre and try to reach the top of the podium! He will be riding his Spicy 916 E:i Shock.
Not wanting to leave him alone, our DH riders from Team Lapierre International (Sam Blenkinsop, Loic Bruni, Loris Vergier et Emmeline Ragot) will participate in the 1st and 3rd round of the Enduro World Series: Superenduro in Punta Ala and Crankworx Europe at Les 2 Alpes.
"The arrival of the new Enduro World Series gives a boost to our discipline! I’m sure everyone is as eager as me to see what this new format will bring" comments Nico
Now deeply involved in Lapierre’s R&D activities, Nico will give priority to Enduro races in 2013. His schedule will be adapted according to his races and training sessions.
"Talking about training, I’ll have to take it seriously again! This is why I will be trained by Laurent Solliet, Loic Bruni’s coach and now with Team Lapierre International. There is a big buzz around this new project. Just look at the riders who will attend the races: with the pure Enduro racers, plus the DH and XC riders who will take part in some of the series, the bar will be set very high, and I’m excited by this prospect."
See you at Punta Ala !
