On October 12th/13th 2019 the E1 Community met for the big season finale in Bad Endbach. Full starting field, sunshine and trails of the finest quality put the icing on the cake for the 2019 season.
For the final race of Germany's biggest MTB Enduro series the participants came from all over Germany and filled the paddock to the last place. Traditionally, the E1 Wild Childs young bikers opened the race weekend on Saturday. 81 series starters and many guest riders led Sam Wrobbel through the season as a guide. In Bad Endbach he was now also able to hand over the series cups to the successful Wild Childs.

For the race Sunday the team of the MSC Salzbödetal worked out five stages around the flowtrail Bad Endbach and collected a lot of praise. Beautiful autumn weather made the event perfect and attracted not least numerous spectators to the tracks to cheer on the bikers loudly.
From a sporting point of view, Jordan Hugo didn't let anything burn any more. As in Frammersbach, he won the day and thus the overall victory in the E1 Pro 2019. In the E1 Woman, Betti Lysko had already secured series victory in advance. With the fastest time of the day she once again dominated her class. The fastest e-biker in Bad Endbach was Christian Herzberg. However, the serial victory went to Marc Oppermann, who came second this time. In the E1 Junior Valentin Schleicher, reigning German U19 Champion in MTB Enduro, was unbeatable again. After he had to pass at the last race due to the World Championship in Finale Ligure ("Trophy of Nations"), he was again on top of the podium. Altogether the champions in nine classes plus Wild Childs were honoured.
