As in all the years, there are four different competitions to choose the champions.<\/p>\n<p>In Portugal the participants can expect a circuit in the mountainous terrain of approx. 60 kilometres, which has to be ridden three times a day. This includes three different special stages, a crosstest at Carvalhinha and two enduro tests in Quinta da Capela and nearby in Celavisa.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The centre of the competition is the headquarters of the G\u00f3is Moto Clube in the Parque do Baiao (GPS: 40\u00b0 9&#8217;51.66 &#8220;N | 8\u00b0 6&#8217;42.59 &#8220;W). It is not only the paddock there, but also the technical inspection and the parc ferme, where the competition motorcycles has to be parked overnight.<\/p>\n<p>Almost 100 riders from 14 different nations take part in the competition in Portugal. Among them are a very high proportion of Enduro riders from Sweden and Finland, who are not afraid of the long journey.<\/p>\n<p>With 25 participants, the junior class of the under-21 years, with the small 125cc machines, is the strongest group in the field, which is not surprising:\u00a0The European Championship has always seen itself not only as a top sport, but also as a way of giving young people easy access to international sport. For this championship class only the national licence of the respective driver is necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Last year&#8217;s champion, the Finn Roni Kyt\u00f6nen from Finland, has switched up to the strong junior class up to the age of 23 for this season.<\/p>\n<p>For those who can&#8217;t be there themselves, there is live timing:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.timingpro.com\/scores2_mysql.php?ID_PROVA=250\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.timingpro.com\/scores2_mysql.php?ID_PROVA=250<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More information and schedules, results and links, there are always up to date and right on the official website:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/european-enduro.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/european-enduro.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dates 2019<\/strong><br \/>\n6th\/7th of April G\u00f3is \/ Portugal (www.goismotoclube.pt\/)<br \/>\n18th\/19th of May Brenzo \/ Slovakia (www.bmt1.sk)<br \/>\n29th\/30th of Juni Madona \/ Latvia (www.lamsf.lv\/en\/sports<br \/>\n6th-8th of September Heinola \/ Finnland (www.hemk.net)<\/p>\n<p>As in 2018, the final-round in Finland will take three days of competition traditionally, with a final motocross.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new season of the European Enduro Championship starts this weekend, on 6\/7 April 2019, in G\u00f3is, Portugal (40 km east of Coimbra).
