The first round of the UCI Enduro World Cup kicked off in Pietra Ligure, Italy, with the season’s first multi-day race. After years of single-day racing, the return of multi-day racing in Italy, with rounds in Val di Fassa and Morillon, too. The new format injected the series with a new, adventurous spirit for fans and riders alike. 2025 has been the year enduro returned to its roots.
