Aletscharena Enduro World Cup to Be Broadcast Live on TV

Enduro, currently the problem child of mountain bike racing, is coming to live TV. The Swiss free-to-air channel Blue Zoom will broadcast the World Cup race at the Aletscharena Bellwald this coming weekend. According to the organizers, this is a world premiere.

Enduro is the problem child of the Mountain Bike World Cup. This is mainly because the decentralized races—which take place simultaneously at multiple off-road locations—are difficult to stage for television. As a result, sponsorship revenue and the number of teams are shrinking.

The Aletscharena and Bellwald are now taking action to counter this trend. The Swiss free-to-air channel Blue Zoom—not to be confused with the pay channel Blue TV—will broadcast the Enduro action live. Since even this channel can’t work miracles and cover the vast area with cameras, viewers at home will be able to watch the final stage live as well as highlights from the other stages.

On Sunday, July 19, starting at 4:30 p.m., the decisive moment will be broadcast live. The UCI will stream the event on its channel, though a subscription is required.
