70 riders, including the two top Swiss bikers René Wildhaber and Armin Beeli, will ride this new enduro adventure in the French Alps around Mont Blanc. Over the course of six days, the participants will conquer 5,000 meters of altitude. Thanks to the support of the mountain railways, the enduro riders will have 20,000 downhill meters to tackle. As befits an adventure, they sleep in a tent camp.

The race goes well for the two riders. Wildhaber takes the lead after the first day of the race and retains it throughout the day. Beeli is consistently in second place. On the evening of the third race day, the leader has a mishap. On a descent, Wildhaber risks a little too much and goes down hard. "The cracking of my ribs was horrible. It was a shame, because the trails were great - but I couldn't really enjoy them because of the pain," says Wildhaber, who continues the race.Gritting your teeth pays off. René Wildhaber reaches the finish line near Megève in first place. The 37-year-old thus wins the complex but very well-organized race with a lead of almost six minutes over second-placed Armin Beeli. Third place went to Briton Neil Donoghue, who lost a further eleven minutes. Another Swiss rider, Thomas Kern, finished in sixth place.The following video reports give an insight into the race and its trail enjoyment.
