The 94th Edition of the International Six Days Enduro was a mixture of good and bad. With over 500 riders entered the racing was always going to be good and it never failed to impress, but unfortunately the event was let down by bad organisation, including very little information about the event being available on the ground and also some riders having to cope with being given the wrong transponders. Lets hope that the event in Spain next year is an improvement.
