Since it’s inception the @world_enduro has visited 23 venues for 34 races. In that same time we have had 31 UCI DH races at only 12 venues. Variety is the spice of life and makes for a TRUE World Series. Smashing week in Tasmania for round 2. Epic tracks in both the wet and dry. @samshawthing | #discovertasmania | @fstopgear | #ridenorthtas
