“It was a wonderful experience coming thousands of miles from Europe to race in this beautiful location.”

I’m grateful for the camaraderie among competitors. It pushes us all to ride better and enjoy the sport to its fullest.

Defending the title on my home trails in a tight race feels great.

After last year’s disappointment, just being able to race without issues feels like a victory in itself.

I am more adept at the POE trails as I was engaged in the trail building.

No doubt, the Pokhara Enduro Race has raised the bar in every sense.

I look forward to seeing Nepali race organisers rise, paving the way for a bright future for mountain biking in the region.
