The First Tracks Enduro Cup is a Mountain bikers dream!  It will test your skill, fitness and metal on some of the finest trails in Ireland. Our goal is to create a friendly atmosphere – so you can relax, ride with your friends and get down to the serious business of ‘bragging rights!’

Round 2 & Irish Enduro National Championships - Ravensdale, County Louth: Classic - practice Saturday & race Sunday

Stages total - Youth & Challenger 4, E-bike 6, Enduro 6.
Sunday only - blind racing 6 stages (no practice Saturday & non Championship race)

Anyone can take part in the First Tracks Enduro Cup & gain points for the series. However to be eligible for the Irish Enduro National Championships riders must be a member of Cycling Ireland with the relevant competition licence and an IRL nationality or be a member of a UCI affiliated federation with an IRL nationality on their licence.

Each venue has its own unique set of challenges. Riders will visit some of Ireland’s most iconic mountain biking destinations along the way. It is aimed at intermediate – advanced riders that will race individually against the clock on the best terrain available at each venue.

Each race consists of up to 6 timed stages consisting of natural single track/ trail centre and are mostly gravity orientated. The lap including transitions and stages are approximately 16-24km. Stage times will be added together for a total time that will decide positions in each category. Transitions are mainly on fire road or single track and are NOT timed. Riders can chill with friends and make their way to the next stage at their own pace. Keep in mind there will be a time limit and cut offs in place for rider safety although this is set at a relaxed pace. The important bits are the descents! We are using the most reliable, non contact timing system available so riders can focus on the fun part. Specific information for each round will become available to competitors via email, social media and a briefing on the run up and at each event.
