With Nick’s second Rampage appearance around the corner, the crew headed out to southern France to adventure into the legendary Black Hills.
This spots is as close as it gets to the feeling of rampage runs without having to fly oversea. We camped out there in the middle of nowhere for 4 days, avoiding storms and hiking lines all day long. Local rider Antoni Villoni was our guide, showing us the darkest sides of this hills and we can’t thank him enough!
Sunn Team rider’s Thomas Lapeyrie and Kilian Bron, were in Finale Ligure for the last round of the Enduro World Series. They enjoyed the beach but also the beautiful trails, here, in Italy.
After a physical race and some mechanicals, Thomas finished in the top 20 with a 19th position. He is also 17th overall despite missing one round of the EWS, a really good performance! Kilian had fun on track but didn’t find his rhythm. He hit a tree sunday morning but continued to finish 69th.
Finale Ligure is an amazing place to finish the World Cup season. A good spirit between pilots and spectators, and a reactive organization despite difficult weather conditions early in the weekend. See you next year!
