How to join in
Basically we distinguish between registration (in the series) and entry (for an event). By registering, you secure all exclusive advantages for serial starters (e. g. guaranteed starting place, discounted entry fees, exclusive serial rating). Monetary the registration in the series pay off if you race two events or more.
Irrespective of the registration in the series is the entry for an event. With the respective entry you secure your starting place for each individual event. Also guest entrants (without registration in the series) can enter the event – as long as starting places are available. The places for registration as well as for entry are limited.

How it works
Each track consists of (measured) stages and (unmeasured) connecting stages. Only the time of the stages (plus prologue on the day before the main race) is included in the total time. A stage is a downhill section with natural or artificial obstacles. After each stage, connecting stages lead to the next stage. There is a generous time limit for the entire track.
On Saturday morning the first part of the track will be announced. Training on selected stages is allowed during the announced times. The other sections of the track must be driven on sight. The complete route will be announced on Saturday evening.
The prologue determines the starting order of the main race and is simultaneously included in the total time. If you do not participate in the prologue, the total time will be double the time of the best prologue in your class. In total, all tracks of the main race on Sunday plus prologue on Saturday will be added together for the evaluation. The transfer stages are not considered and all penalty times are added.
The time measurement is carried out by an active transponder, which is included in your starter kit. A deposit of 20 Euro must be deposited and will be returned in the target area. The transponder is attached to the handlebar with a rubber holder. Without transponder no time measurement and participation is possible! The transponder must be activated before the start and read out after the finish (every day). This takes place in the start/finish channel.
What you need
To participate you need a mountain bike in perfect technical condition. Depending on the local prerequisites and outside conditions (weather, etc.) you can choose the model and components according to your preferences. An event is to be absolved with only one mountain bike. Changing bikes during an event is not permitted.
In addition, a helmet with CE marking is mandatory in all cases.
For your own safety, we recommend additional protective equipment for the stages (full face helmet, knee pads, back and elbow protectors).
No license is required.
E1 E-Bike
Participants of the category E1 E-Bike, i. e. mountain bikers with pedelec (see technical requirements), complete a special e-bike stage, which puts the skills of the motorised starters to the test. Depending on the location, this can be an uphill section or a technically tricky course, for example. This stage is not (!) included in the total time of the weekend. However, you can collect additional points for the championship on this stage. The regular prologue is still to be absolved (2018 NEW). Those who do not participate can still start the next day. In total time, the best e-biker's time is doubled in the prologue. The main race is the regular course.
There are further technical requirements for the e-bikes. Only pedelecs with a maximum motor power of 250 watts may be used. The motor must be firmly installed in the bike and may accelerate the bike to max. 25 km/h (according to EU motor vehicle regulations). The power of the motor only results as pedal support and must not replace it. There is no need for a type-approval and an insurance number for these vehicles. Also, only the standard batteries of the pedelec are allowed and additional or modified versions are strictly prohibited. The battery must not be changed or charged during a race day. We reserve the right to check the pedelecs.
