Xross Challenge
“Dear friends,
We are sad to announce that the Xross Challenge 2020 race is canceled due to the ongoing global health situation. Xross Team has carefully analyzed the circumstances, and we were optimistic that we would all enjoy riding hard enduro at Tara mountain this fall. Unfortunately, the predictions with the global pandemic are unstable, and they vary from country to country. Having in mind the well-being and safety of our riders, who are coming from all over Europe, and even further, we decided to cancel this year’s race. We are focusing our efforts on the Xross Challenge 2021. Xross Team continues to follow the situation in Serbia, and if circumstances allow, on the dates intended for the race (2. – 4. October), we will try to organize some activities for the riders. It will not be a race as you know it, but some kind of enduro gathering. The team will release more information in the following days.”
There is one more race left in the 2020 calendar. Hard Enduro Race Sokobanja is also planned for October 24/25. organized by Kentaur Enduro Serbia. More on Hard Enduro Sokobanja.
We hope that the last race of the season will go according to plan and that the enduro 2021 will start at full throttle and without cancellations.
