Intro Text

We've been waiting for months and now it's here, the 2020 Enduro World Series kicks off with training in Zermatt. A day earlier, the Matterhorn was visible in all its glory, but as riders hit the course today, it was nothing but cold, clouds and wet. Sven Martin and @maddogboris share the awesome!

Mark Maurissen with a new trademarked cockpit accessory for Martin Maes. When the fork heats up, it powers the body heater. Welcome to the start of the 2020 Enduro World Series. -Sven Martin
