Live timing for day 2 of racing - https://live.ucimtbworldseries.com

Onboard with Jacko for the first day of racing -

Full action recap from day 1 of racing - pretty sick highlights package with all the on-track action and trackside reactions you could ask for!

Spoiler alert: Don't read this shit if you're trying not to spoil results. Seriously. I'm not joking. Last chance. Fine. Whatever, man. ...that bike seems to working well for her, too! I'm not sure what the story is. It seems like Hattie just rips and knows how to go faster than other people. We'll have to see what happens on day 2 of Pietra but she's in a pretty good position, I think. Sidebar: I don't think it has anything to do with the gearbox thing; she was fast as shit before. I DO wonder, though, how much riding way...

Good video, feels like a good start, social media coverage seems good also, long live Enduro.

Practice action coming in hot:

Everybody needs a Party Boy in their riding crew

Crazy shakedown, front flips and all.

I’ve been in Finale this past week on vacation, and it’s rained everyday. Not a ton, but enough to make some trails slippery, while others were tacky and perfect. The weather has changed every day (currently it’s sprinkling and cloudy), but it looks like it will warm up over the weekend and be drier. It doesn’t take too much sun to dry up a lot of trails, but there always seems to be some slick turns and puddles when you least expect it. The trails that are being raced on above Pietra have been closed all week. But I know...

Here's Tristan Botteram's bike check:

Here's the entry list for this weekend's race: https://chronorace.blob.core.windows.net/webresources/20250509_mtb/entr… There are many more racers in almost every category compared to last year and riders seem genuinely excited for the comeback of two-day racing.

https://ucimtbworldseries.com/news/warner-bros-discovery-sports-present… So enduro gets it's own "Drive To Survive" this year. Could be brilliant, could be cringe. For the love of enduro, please let this be good.

kicked off a thread for EDR Pietra Ligure here - https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/hub/2025-edr-1-pietra-ligure @Mr.Nally - can you share the link to registered riders?

First round of the ewsdr or whatever they are callling it this year next weekend and the course map has been released. Around 100km and 3100m of climbing over 2 days so looks like they are going back to bigger days out again.

here are some mitch-on-the-bike shots from later in that clip you pulled from. at windrock mitch just said c-dale doesn't have a DH bike, so it made sense to ride the frameworks. no idea if there's more to it.

Mitch Ropelato on ohlins, Brembo brakes and blacked out frameworks frame?
