For a quarter of a century the Erzbergrodeo has not only constantly set new standards in Enduro Sports, the one-of-a-kind event is regarded as one of the biggest and most renowned motorcycle racing events in the world. By officially announcing the Erzbergrodeo's event date, thousands of ambitious motorcycle offroad athletes all around the globe start their preparations for the seasons's biggest and toughest Xtreme Enduro race. Multi-thousands fans all over the world mark the weekend from May 29th to June 2nd in their calenders as well - each year this enthusiastic crowd turns the whole region around the picturesque towns of Eisenerz and Vordernberg into the pulsing epicentre of the international Dirtbike community.

As preparations for the epic anniversary edition are running on full throttle, Erzbergrodeo mastermind Karl Katoch lays some new cards on the table for 2019. "We are currently planning on a new and extended race track for the Red Bull Hare Scramble which will overshadow everything we've done so far. By doing so we are reacting on the constantly rising skill level of Xtreme Enduro and can implement new visitor areas for the fans, making the intense action even more tangible. The Erzbergrodeo XX5 will become an unforgettable experience for all competitors and visitors.", Katoch claims.
