One of the biggest Enduro rally competitions in the Baltic States will shake the Gaižiūnai military training ground
The start of this year’s Enduro rally first stage will be given at the military training ground during Joninės. Four hundred participants will participate in different classes according to the equipment they drive.
The Enduro rally competition, which will take place on Saturday, June 25th, at the Gaižiūnai military training ground, can be called one of the largest in the Baltic States. Already 15 years lasting competition, this year will gather more than 400 participants, who will ride motorcycles and ATVs in seven qualifying classes and one additional Tourist class.
“It is always a pleasure to organize a celebration for off-road enthusiasts. I emphasize the celebration, because when there are a lot of participants, the mood is always good. Everyone gets what they come for, and moreover, the opportunity to see old friends and still compete against each other always adds extra charm to the event. Sometimes it seems that only athletes who have not repaired their motorcycles or those who have conflicts with the other events are not taking part on June 25th rally,” says the organizer of the competition Paulius Albertavičius.
About 20 checkpoints await participants in this competition, which will require demonstrating their ability to drive and orientate on forest roads, tracks, blocks and logging sites. For the dessert, strips of sand tracks are prepared, so the victory will require a hard work. It will be easier only for those who register for the non-creditable Tourist class.
“After organizing Enduro Rally for many years, we clearly understand that the place is very important, so it is not without a reason why the route goes through the territory of the military training ground. Those that haven’t been here has no idea what a specific place it is and attracts everyone who has already been here. It is practically banned for public use. Only thanks for the military positive attitude towards the motorcyclists and the responsible behavior of our organizers, we got a one-day “window” when we can use the sandy sections of the military ground for the competition.
Every year we pay attention to our strongest participants and complete newcomers, who usually start in the Tourist class. For the beginners everything is simplified to a minimum, the most important thing is to have the right equipment and a partner or several since individual participation is prohibited. It is a real challenge to overcome one of the prepared routes of the organizers (one can choose usual or more difficult), however it attracts the participants the most,” said the organizer of the event Paulius Albertavičius.
The first stage of the “Enduro Rally” should be especially relevant for the participants who plan to participate in all three (one stage in Latvia) and hope to be invited to the awards ceremony of the year of the Lithuanian Motorcycle Sports Federation.
The event will start at 10 a.m. on Saturday and finish at about 6 p.m. on the same day. The awards ceremony is scheduled for 8 p.m. and until then, the most memorable moments captured during the competition will be shown.
The organizers plan to continue the tradition by rewarding every third participant in the standings, which means 30 percent best participants in their class will receive valuable prizes. Therefore, all participants will receive commemorative diplomas for finishing difficult up to 100 kilometers route.
Even if you don’t have a partner to start the race with, the organizers are ready to help you. On competition website look for registration for those who are looking for a colleague for this adventure.
