What's Next For Enduro Racing?

Enduro mountain bike racing used to be the biggest, most exciting discipline in the sport, but why are so many top pro riders suddenly walking away? In this video, we trace the history of the sport from its grassroots beginnings to the official UCI Enduro World Cup (EDR) to figure out where things started to go wrong. We sit down with mountain bike legends Ed Masters, Tracy Moseley, and Remi Gauvin to discuss the hyper-corporate scheduling, broadcasting difficulties, and market shifts that are pushing the elite level of the sport into the doldrums. ⏱ Timestamps ⏱ 00:00 - The Decline of Enduro Racing? 01:34 - Why Top Riders are Stepping Away 02:41 - EWS vs. The UCI World Cup Format 04:16 - The History of Enduro: From Grassroots to EDR 06:36 - Legend Venues & The Influx of E-Bikes Useful Links: Join this channel to get access to perks: https://gmbn.eu/YouTubeMembership 🛍 Explore The GMBN Shop 👉 https://gmbn.eu/SpringTees Subscribe to the channel for more! 👉 https://gmbn.eu/Subscribe Submit your Photo and Video to us 👉 https://www.gmbn.com/uploader Won a prize on the Dirt Shed Show 👉 https://gmbn.eu/DSSPrizeWinner Looking for MTB Insurance?
