... anyway, Italy has conquered all the three prizes at the International Six Days of enduro! This had never happened before (winning all the three races at the same time). This six-days race is the hardest race for motorbyke off-road drivers in the world, and actually they are the Olympic Games of enduro. We won the International Trophy, the Silver Vase and the special Club category: all these categories are dedicated to teams, not individuals, so you must have at least 4 top-class drivers for each category to win. And this year we had those fantastic drivers!!! I'm particularly happy since I'm an enduro driver as well (even not as good as those of the official italian teams...). I'm going to change my avatar just to celebrate the victory...

How many other countries participate in this off road event Frengo. We have similar events here so I was just wondering if this is a global event or just a local event? :?:

They are the Olympic Games of Enduro, reserved to national representatives. Teams from all over the world are participating (I think about 20, since not all the countries have athletes in this sport). BTW, Australia was present, and one of the strongest enduro drivers of the world is just an Australian: Stefan Merriman.
