T he first round of the Asia-Pacific Continental EWS has concluded with the Shimano Enduro Tour in Derby, Tasmania. The trails were ripping with a great mixture of flow and natural terrain, and the talent pool was pretty strong considering most world-class riders are embracing an off-season in November. Sam Hill came out swinging and took the win despite Sven hounding him for interviews about racing DH in 2019. Rowena Fry took the Women's win, and the amateur and junior categories had some sizeable fields. Enjoy the interviews from Sven Martin, cruise some of the Pro results and drool over the terrain in the action photos below.
