5 Things We Learned From EWS Zermatt

The first-ever EWS-E race took place on Friday with 34 riders pitting themselves and their motors against the rocky Zermatt trails. The EWS-E followed its own course, with an uphill power stage testing riders’ tech climbing ability alongside the usual gravity-fed offerings we’d expect from an enduro race. However, there were some similarities between the regular EWS-E and EWS, as the Rock ‘N’ Roll and Lake Link (which was later cancelled in the EWS) trails featured in both routes.
