Pro Velo 2012 Wiggle Enduro 6 Solo Event

Solo riders aim to complete as many laps of the 6 mile course in 6 hours. But there’s a twist. Enduro 6 is a ‘parc ferme’ event, meaning that once the races starts riders have to be totally self sufficient, being given a pit area to put all their spares & supplies in to see them through the day.

500 competitors will test themselves around a 6 mile course of undulating terrain to see how many laps they can fit into the 6 hours. The race will start with a short Le-Mans style run. The unique ‘parc ferme’ format means that riders are allocated a pit area to keep everything they need for the duration of the race. Once the race starts the pits are secured.
