Aiming for the podium. Alfredo Gomez taking ErzbergRodeo 2023

Alfredo Gomez and Rieju are ready for the second round of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship, RedBull ErzbergRodeo!

Despite, track walking is now not allowed, Alfredo seems to like this rule. And honestly, this is Hard Enduro, you face the unknown…

“Erzberg is one of my favorite races. The bike is ready and is feeling perfect, the training was good, we have a good tyre setup from Mitas so I hope I can have a good race. And the podium is the goal!” said Alfredo.

Day 1 of the prologue was fast, and for Rieju Factory rider, ended in 45 position. “Today was very fast, I missed 2-3 turns but I had a run on a track full of rocks. After about 30 riders, the track was clear and smooth. Tomorrow is another run, so I’ll be flat out again. Alternating the fast and slow races, today I also won the Trial Xtreme Race, so if is time, I’ll do it tomorrow also.”

Marc Fernández had also a good run, he’s in 68 place after day 1. The new entry for AG Racing Team is Nicolaj Thybring, currently in 194 position.
