After taking a break for about a month from competition (the last race was the Cervinia Maxiavalanche) with the beginning of September it was time to call the number on the bike for the season finale.

The first race was the European Enduro Series Molveno September 6 while the following week, together with my brother, we went to the final race of the Enduro Cup circuit in Lombardy Livigno.

In August, after two weeks of total relaxation after Cervinia, I started training and immediately the condition had not seemed so bad that I had come immediately want to run; so I decided to make these two races before the big show of Finale Ligure, but both have taken more as a workout rather than seeking the full result in fact in both cases I felt very little and tried in this way train (I only toured for a special before the race).

In fact the result was not the best hosts in neither case, all’EES 9th and 5th in Livigno, but the bike feelings were not hurt and I enjoyed it a lot. Both races were organized well and had some very nice special and complete with stretches from cycling and other very technical (especially in Molveno where there were lots of roots and rocks) and then were two good days of intense training in view of the last two races of the season.

Unfortunately, towards the end of the season the energies are now counted and then you can not overdo it, and in fact now I a quiet week to recover a bit ‘of forces, two calls in the next and then come straight to one of the most important events this year … aiming to annoy a lot ‘of people there before!

The END is near …
