• There will be limited fuel available after the race, and minimal top-ups will be made by Silver Kings Hard Enduro staff, and only if they deem it necessary

AVERAGE DAILY RIDING TIME

This question will be answered more thoroughly soon. This will depend not only on your riding ability, but also on if you enter into the “right” class for your abilities. We have created three distinctly different tracks (Gold, Silver, & Bronze) in order to give racers the maximum amount of race riding time while challenging riders on a kickass course on 100% private land that is only accessible once a year.

A change in the weather (like an occasional thunderstorm) will increase the course difficulty.
